Mauricio Di Bartolomeo is the Co-Founder of Ledn, a pioneer in the fast-growing Bitcoin-Backed Loans category. Ledn provides a secure and transparent way to access liquidity while maintaining your Bitcoin holdings.
Why you should listenLedn.io is a financial services platform that provides Bitcoin and digital asset-backed loans and savings products. Founded in 2018, Ledn specializes in offering secure, transparent, and regulation-conscious financial tools for cryptocurrency holders. It allows users to earn interest on their Bitcoin and USDC holdings or access liquidity through Bitcoin-backed loans without having to sell their assets. The company operates under strict financial regulations and emphasizes transparency, including regular third-party attestations of client asset balances.
One of Ledn’s flagship products is its Bitcoin-backed loan, which enables users to borrow USDC or USD against their Bitcoin at competitive interest rates, while maintaining ownership of their crypto. Ledn also offers a Bitcoin and USDC savings account, where clients can earn compounding interest paid monthly. The platform distinguishes itself through its security-first approach, with assets held in institutional-grade custody via BitGo Trust Company, a qualified custodian regulated in the U.S. This custody structure gives clients additional protection and reassurance in an industry often plagued by custodial risk.
Ledn has raised significant venture funding from prominent investors including Coinbase Ventures, Kingsway Capital, and White Star Capital, signaling confidence in its business model. With a growing customer base in Latin America and other regions, Ledn continues to expand its product offerings while remaining committed to regulatory compliance and user-focused innovation in the Bitcoin finance space.
