Excited to announce a major milestone in our journey! We've raised $75M in combined equity and a loan financing facility to accelerate the future of crypto-backed lending! Thanks to all of our customers and investors, and a big shoutout to the Arch team! 🚀

[Arch @ArchLending]

🚀 We’re excited to announce a major milestone — we’ve raised $75M to take crypto-backed lending to the next level! We’re setting a new benchmark for security, trust and concierge customer service for both individuals and institutions in crypto backed lending.

This significant raise includes a $5M equity seed round, co-led by @MarkYusko's Morgan Creek Digital and @CastleIslandVC, with participation from @galaxyhq, @BitGo, and more, as well as a scalable $70M loan financing facility. This facility, funded by @galaxyhq, will help us meet the growing demand for crypto-backed loans on our platform — backed by #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and #Solana.

We’re just getting started! 🌐

Spot on, @CJ_Bitcoin! We see this exact mindset across all our Bitcoiner clients @ArchLending.

[Chaitanya Jain @CJ_Bitcoin]

If you use your $BTC as “money” and spend it, you part with generational wealth.

If you use your $BTC as “collateral” and intelligently borrow USD to spend, you retain generational wealth.

Excited to roll out this offering.

Our existing feature set like autopay already makes taking a loan with @ArchLending something you don't have to think much about. This takes it to the next level.

Looking forward to the panel this coming Monday in NYC to speak about @ArchLending! DM me if you'll be at the Cryptio Finance Forum.

[Cryptio @cryptio_co]

SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT: Dhruv Patel, Co-Founder & CEO of @ArchLending, will speak at Crypto Finance Forum NYC.

Arch is rethinking how crypto-backed lending is built – pairing scalable credit products with custody arrangements that keep collateral secure and non-rehypothecated. With collateral held at @Anchorage, Arch is raising the standard for how digital assets are safeguarded in lending markets.

Dhruv will share how product design is unlocking new categories of borrowers – from using Bitcoin for mortgages to structuring perpetual-income solutions and pre-IPO equity backed loans. Expect practical insight into what unlocks scale as crypto credit moves toward a $500B market.

📅 20 October (9am – 6.30pm)
📍Tribeca360 (10 Desbrosses St, New York, NY 10013)
