OP, are you trying to get a loan in order to finance your future ATM business by any chance? I thought I'd post here instead of responding to your PM, and I hope I'm not revealing a secret of yours by doing so--though the note you sent me didn't sound like it was confidential.
If that's the case, I wish you luck--and I'd recommend you enter the bitcoin ATM game sooner rather than later, at least if you're in the US. I've been watching my state on Coinatmradar, and there have been a lot of ATMs popping up all over the place, with three in my own city, where there had been just one about a year ago. They're all owned by different companies, too, with different fee structures, though the only one I really trust/like so far is CoinFlip.
If this is unrelated to that, I'm afraid I don't know of any place other than the Currency Exchange section to borrow against your bitcoin holdings. But considering that most potential borrowers in that section don't offer any collateral at all, I'm pretty sure your request would be a welcome change and you'd easily get a loan with the appropriate collateral if you wanted to go that route. Most people are looking for loans in bitcoin, but if I understood you correctly, you're looking for a fiat loan with bitcoin as collateral. Either way, I doubt you'll have a problem.
Again, best of luck to you and your future endeavors, my man. Glad you PM'ed me.
Edit: I just read your PM again and I'm probably mistaken about your goal with the loan--but I wish you the best anyway, whatever your plans are.
Hey m8, appreciate your message. That process is currently underway and I should have my first machine deployed by the end of July! I'm actually utilizing my client's revenue share program and I opted for a 0 APR card to finance the machine. Based on my conversations from many operators most of them have said that these ATMs are paying for themselves in 6-9 months, so basically my plan here is to utilize the debt from the banks to have this bitcoin ATM pay for itself! Then i'll have my own little money printer and I'll reinvest either into more machines or more BTC. I have cash flow to move if I need to, originally I was considering using some BTC to pay for this and my op would have accepted but I didn't find that a good way to do it simply because BTC is king, and I don't want to put up any of my coin because i'm holding long term. This post was really just to learn more about how folks are doing this, I've just seen a lot of commentary on the subject for people who would prefer to lend against their BTC over selling it to get fiat when needed, and that made me curious. Something like this would be more attractive at ATHs maybe in 2025 and beyond.
