Lending and yield model

Supporting the “Yield + Hedge” Investment Thesis

Greengage’s model is built around a simple but powerful principle: generate attractive, risk-adjusted yield while maintaining a natural hedge through Bitcoin exposure. This underpins our Bitcoin Treasury 2.0 strategy, positioning digital assets not only as a store of value but as a productive component of a diversified portfolio.

How Yield Is Generated

Our active Bitcoin Treasury 2.0 approach delivers yield through two complementary channels:

 

Non-recourse lending backed by digital asset collateral

 

Private credit portfolios sourced through our lending marketplace and partner network

 

These instruments provide stable, predictable yield streams while allowing the underlying Bitcoin to remain part of a long-term appreciation thesis.

How Non-Recourse Lending Works

Non-recourse lending enables borrowers to secure financing using digital assets as collateral, without exposing other assets to recovery claims. For investors, this creates:

 

• Defined downside risk

 

• Transparent collateralisation levels

 

• Clear liquidation pathways in the event of borrower default

 

Collateral remains under custody with strict controls, ensuring high visibility and enforceability throughout the loan cycle.

 

Risk Management Controls

Our risk framework is designed to protect investor capital and adapt to changing market conditions. It includes:

 

Prudent loan-to-value (LTV) ratios

 

Continuous collateral monitoring and automated alerts

 

High-quality borrower screening and underwriting

 

• Stress-tested risk thresholds aligned with market volatility

 

Independent oversight and structured governance

 

This multi-layered approach ensures resilience across market cycles.

Margin Profile

The model is built to deliver strong net margins through a combination of:

 

Attractive gross yields from private credit and collateralised lending

 

Efficient capital deployment via curated loan books

 

Low operational drag enabled by technology-first infrastructure

 

Our goal is to maintain a consistent margin profile while scaling volume and diversifying collateral types.

Scenarios & Downside Protection

A key advantage of the Bitcoin Treasury 2.0 structure is its built-in downside protection. Scenario modelling shows:

 

Buffer zones before collateral approaches liquidation thresholds

 

• Protection via over-collateralisation and conservative LTVs

 

• Reduced portfolio volatility due to blend of Bitcoin exposure and fixed-yield credit

 

Hedged outcomes where Bitcoin appreciation offsets market softness in the credit book

 

This creates a balanced, scenario-resilient investment model.
