Bitcoin Loan Calculator (BTC-to-BTC, 95% LTV, No Margin Calls)

Calculate your Bitcoin-backed loan terms and investment scenarios in real-time. You receive 95% of your staked Bitcoin (5% of collateral as upfront fee), can liquidate for fiat to invest, and at maturity repay in BTC to get your Bitcoin back or pay 5% of collateral to roll. No margin calls or liquidations.

Who This Calculator Is For

This calculator is designed for Terminal Bitcoiners—those who've reached the limit of meaningful accumulation and want to make their Bitcoin work harder without selling their stack. If you're looking to access liquidity while maintaining your Bitcoin position, BTC-to-BTC lending may be the solution.

How 95% LTV Works

You stake Bitcoin as collateral. A 5% fee (on your collateral) is deducted upfront; you receive 95%—e.g. stake 10 BTC, pay 0.5 BTC fee, receive 9.5 BTC. You can liquidate that BTC for fiat to allocate to another trade (e.g. invest in MSTR or Metaplanet). At maturity you repay 10 BTC to receive your original 10 BTC back, or pay 0.5 BTC to roll the loan for another year.

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter your Bitcoin amount: Input how much BTC you want to stake as collateral (minimum 1 BTC).
  2. See your net proceeds: The calculator shows the amount you receive (95% of collateral after the 5% upfront fee)—this is what you can liquidate for fiat to invest.
  3. Review repayment and outcomes: At maturity you repay your staked amount in BTC to get it back, or pay 5% of collateral to roll. Model investment scenarios to see potential outcomes.

Bitcoin Loan Calculator FAQs

1 What is a BTC loan?

A BTC loan is a loan denominated in Bitcoin. With Loan My Coins, you stake Bitcoin as collateral and receive 95% as borrowed BTC (5% of collateral as upfront fee). You can liquidate that BTC for fiat to invest. At maturity you repay your staked amount in BTC to get it back, or pay 5% of collateral (e.g. 0.5 BTC per year) to roll. Terms are 12 months, renewable annually up to 5 years. No margin calls (BTC-to-BTC).

2 Is this different from fiat loans?

Yes. Traditional Bitcoin loans give you fiat currency, which creates margin call and liquidation risks. With Loan My Coins you receive 95% of your staked Bitcoin (5% of collateral as fee); you can liquidate it for fiat to invest. At maturity you repay in BTC to get your original Bitcoin back, or pay 5% of collateral to roll. Price volatility doesn't trigger liquidations (BTC-to-BTC).

3 How is LTV calculated?

You receive 95% of your staked Bitcoin (5% of collateral is the upfront fee). For example, stake 10 BTC: 5% of collateral = 0.5 BTC fee; you receive 9.5 BTC that you can liquidate for fiat to invest. At maturity repay 10 BTC to get your 10 BTC back, or pay 0.5 BTC to roll for another year.

4 Who is eligible?
