Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin (ticker: BTC) launched in 2009 as the first decentralized cryptocurrency. It runs on a public blockchain where transactions are validated by proof-of-work mining, and there's a hard cap of 21 million coins that will ever exist.

For U.S. mortgage purposes, Bitcoin is the most commonly accepted crypto collateral because of its 15+ year trading history, deep liquidity, and relative price stability compared to smaller cryptocurrencies.

Why it matters for Milo customers

Bitcoin is the primary crypto collateral Milo accepts. Most Milo customers pledge BTC for crypto-backed mortgages or loans — its long track record, liquidity, and institutional custody options make it the cleanest collateral profile.
