I was watching a video on how rich people save on taxes by borrowing against their stock portfolios with a securities based line of credit.
I was wondering if such a thing exists for cryptocurrency. If it doesn't, maybe it will someday.

Banks don't want to indirectly be holders of crypto, which is what they become when lending money without anything else to protect them. Clever rich people diversify and that gives them a lot more stability, plus gives reassurance to lenders that there are other assets that might not crash to the same degree or at the same time.
