Altitude

Self-repaying loans. Borrow stablecoins against your BTC & ETH. Your collateral earns yield that pays down the loan. Potentially to zero.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

Long-term BTC holder who needs liquidity has two options.

1. Sell and trigger a tax event, close the position, and watch the price from the sidelines.

2. Borrow against it. Keep the position. Access the cash. Set a low LTV so liquidation is nowhere near current price.

Altitude handles the rest. The loan pays itself down over time.

4⃣ Got ETH and BTC sitting jobless in your wallet(s)? Oh wait, you'd like to use them and farm a token before it even launched? What about self-repaying loans?

Say no more, @AltitudeFi_ has got you covered.

Note: self-repaying loans are executed only when the LTV is below 8%.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

Institutions are here, and they are getting onboarded to DeFi. Times may be dark at the moment, but it's all battle-testing the current infrastructure, preparing it for the next wave of investors.

Thanks to @Flight3official for shooting the video. 🙏

[Tatiana Topp @tatitopp]

Anthropic has postponed the public launch of its powerful new AI model, “Claude Mythos,” over security concerns. I have asked @tobiasvanamstel, the co-founder and CEO of @AltitudeFi_ : Is AI a threat or an opportunity for #DeFi?

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

We are not affected by the Kelp DAO exploit. User funds are safe.

We're aware of the concerns around rsETH being used as collateral on Aave V3 and the potential for bad debt contagion. Our vaults are not borrowing from Aave, so we have no exposure there. We are monitoring the situation closely and will take action if needed.

Thoughts with the Kelp team. Hope they're able to contain the damage.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

Next stop: Paris.

We'll be at @ParisBlockWeek on April 15 and 16.

The stomping grounds of Ledger, Circle and more top teams that are building what's next in crypto.

We're there to meet friends, find new partnerships, investors and talk to BTC and ETH holders who'd rather borrow against their assets than sell them. That's exactly who Altitude is built for.

@tobiasvanamstel & @smopschoor will be there. If you're going, come say hi.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

Wealthy investors do not liquidate assets to fund their lifestyle.

They borrow against them at low rates. The asset keeps appreciating. The loan gets serviced. Net worth climbs.

This mechanic is now available on-chain to anyone with a crypto position worth borrowing against.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

Before putting capital into any DeFi protocol, go deep.

Learn how it operates. Where assets are held. Whether the code has been independently audited, more than once. Who is actually behind it.

The more you know before you act, the better you sleep after.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

You could manage your own DeFi loan.

Monitor rates across protocols. Refinance manually when something cheaper appears. Deploy idle collateral into yield. Track it all yourself.

Or you take a loan through Altitude and let it do that.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

That’s why selling is not an option.

Just borrow and grow the pie.

[CoinDesk @CoinDesk]

LATEST: @BlackRock’s head of digital assets, Robbie Mitchnick, said institutional investors are increasingly concentrating on bitcoin and ether, viewing most other tokens as short-lived and largely “nonsense.”

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

@lordjorx For some it’s battle testing.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

We are a non-custodial protocol which means your keys, your collateral. The automation only touches your idle capital: the gap between what you’re actually borrowing and your max ltv. That buffer earns yield and pays down your loan. You set the parameters, smart contracts execute.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

DeFi borrowing on Ethereum involves more variables than most people account for.

Rates differ across protocols and shift with utilization. Staying on the best rate means monitoring multiple platforms and refinancing manually when something changes.

Altitude aggregates across the leading lending protocols, routes your loan to the lowest available rate, and refinances automatically when rates move.
You hold the loan. Altitude manages where it sits.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

@DadChurch Happy to have you onboard! 🙏

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

We are not affected by the USR depeg and user funds are safe.

We pulled funds from the Gauntlet vault as a precaution and are monitoring the situation.

Thoughts with the Resolv team since this is a tough situation and we hope they're able to recover.

@0xNairolf Welcome to Altitude.

[Altitude @AltitudeFi_]

The fundamental question is who controls your assets, a legal agreement with a company or software rules written in form of smart contracts.

With centralized lenders, your collateral goes onto their balance sheet. You rely on their solvency and honesty.
With DeFi, smart contracts govern access. Pay back the loan and you can pull your collateral at any time.

Neither option is automatically safer. The devil is in the details of each specific setup.
