Pay attention to Lantern. Upfront about how they do business. Had BlockFi done that or Celsius it would have saved people a lot of $. And I was a big believer in BlockFi. Maybe would have still used them too. I love free markets. And free markets should demand transparency. https://t.co/tzjZk15VIq

Truth! Get a loan on your tokens - save the taxes https://t.co/WKbWSowA6g
— Russell C (@rcastag) September 4, 2025
We really don't like having to sell crypto - the taxes, loss of upside, and it just goes against the ethos of it all!
— DABL (@its_DABL) September 2, 2025
That's why we just borrow against it and each time we've done it with @LanternFi it's been a smooth and easy process! 💸
i'm very bullish on crypto-backed loans, which is why i'm such a fan of @LanternFi.
— drew (@drewlivanos) September 8, 2025
here's why:
- security, custody, and communication
- tax benefits
- speed of liquidity (as little as one hour)
- no credit checks
the traditional banking system simply cannot compete… 🤷🏽♂️
I recently partnered with @LanternFi to bring more awareness of their loan product to the XRP community. 👉 https://t.co/PHmoLRj2Uw
