Our take

As the price of Bitcoin has rocketed over recent years, demand has risen amongst holders of the digital asset to maximise their returns in the real world. Ledn helps Bitcoin holders do that in a safe, regulated and transparent manner.

The company offers a set of financial services for Bitcoin holders. Unlike other providers in the space, Ledn has opted to solely focus on Bitcoin rather than any other digital asset meaning they can treat all of the assets of their customers equally, and provide more security to all.

The company is looking to expand its services. For instance, they are the first digital asset lending company to complete a Proof-of-Reserves attestation and are using this stellar reputation to deliver a new Bitcoin-Backed Mortgage Product.

The nature of Ledn’s business means that they are exposed to one of the most volatile asset markets we have ever seen. However the startup has taken major steps to secure its holdings, and seemingly sets itself apart compared to many of the cowboy financial services organisations emerging in the crypto space.
