Ledn to Discontinue Ethereum Support and Fully Transition to Bitcoin-Backed Lending Model
PANews, May 23—According to The Block, crypto lending platform Ledn has announced it will discontinue support for Ethereum and its interest-bearing products, shifting entirely to a Bitcoin-collateralized loan model. Starting July 1, the platform will only offer “custodied Bitcoin loans,” with clients’ collateral fully held by Ledn or its partner institutions. Ledn had only introduced Ethereum-collateralized loans in February 2024, and this adjustment means both BTC and ETH “Growth Accounts” will be closed. Company CEO Adam Reeds stated that this move marks a return to Bitcoin’s original intent of countering the fractional reserve banking system and eliminating third-party credit risk.
