Speaking of the loan financing facility, we’ve teamed up with Galaxy to fund crypto-backed loans on our platform. Whether you’re putting up Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana as collateral, rest assured that your assets are safe with us—we never rehypothecate. We also store your assets securely at regulated custodians such as Anchorage, a Federally Chartered Bank. This facility is designed to scale with demand, and we have plans to expand it even further with more capital partners. Who knows, it might even be securitized down the line!

Dhruv Patel, our Co-Founder and CEO, put it best: “We’ve seen a real surge in demand for borrowing against crypto as the asset class matures. Both individual and institutional investors are looking for a platform they can trust, and Arch is here to deliver just that.”

Our founding team hails from top-tier tech and finance backgrounds—think Bridgewater Associates, Snapchat, Brex, Google, Tinder, and more. We’ve poured that expertise into creating a lending product that doesn’t just meet industry standards but sets new ones.

Mark Yusko, Founder of Morgan Creek Digital and one of our investors, summed up our mission perfectly: “Strong lending firms are the backbone of the global financial system, and they’re crucial for the growth of the digital asset ecosystem. We’re proud to partner with Arch Lending to build one of the foundational lenders in this space.”

Himanshu Sahay, our Co-Founder and CTO, added, “We’ve learned from the successes and challenges of past crypto lenders to create a secure, regulated, and reliable business that’s here for the long run. Our goal is to set new standards and drive growth in the crypto lending industry.”
