Additionally, the rise of Bitcoin-backed lending is examined as a vital financial tool enabling users to access liquidity without selling their assets, supported by transparency and risk management that distinguished resilient firms during recent market turmoil. Overall, this discussion captures the dynamic interplay of policy, technology, and market innovation shaping the crypto ecosystem’s future.
