I consider blockfi.com interest from your balance is rather safer than other websites that offer super high yield on your balance or investments. Blockfi.com offer a really good return rate on GUSD (Gemini dollar). As far as I know, Blockfi.com said the holding of your Cryptos balance is held in the Gemini cold wallet. Blockfi.com is not part of Gemini company, so keep that in mind. Blockfi.com also indicated that if their cold wallet got hacked and loss all the Cryptos balance they will not be responsible, basically what it mean is that you loose all your coins and you’re not going to get it back because blockfi.com said they’re not responsible if they got hacked and loss all your coins. That’s the scary part about blockfi.com saying that they will not be held responsible if their wallet got hacked and loss all the coins.
So the update below indicated that you can borrow cash from your Bitcoin Cryptos balance. So let say you have balance in blockfi.com $10,000 then you can borrow cash from it up to 50%, the higher the % you borrowed, the higher the interest. What’s the advantage? the advantage is that you can get cash to use for whatever you want, and all you need to pay back is the interest each month. $10,000usd bitcoin balance you can get $2000 cash with 4.5% APR, meaning you get $2000 cash to do whatever you want, but each month you will need to pay $7.50 interest off of your $2000 that’s it. Now the catch is that your $10,000 worth Bitcoin is stuck in blockfi.com Gemini wallet you cannot do anything with it, it’s not your anymore until you pay back the $2000 loan then it’s unlocked for you to withdraw your $10000 worth BTC.
