OK sure but then you don't have a dollar short position. The advantage of a btc backed loan is that you can pay dollars to get your bitcoin back at the end of the loan term. The interest rate is brutal tho. You need a lot of inflation to make the numbers work and the custodial risk is 💀.
Arch is another provider. Single sig custodial w/ similar interest rate. Newish company, hasn't been thru a full cycle yet. Maybe 16% apr.
