BORROW CASH AGAINST BITCOIN
• Apply for a bitcoin-backed loan¹, available for individuals and businesses in select regions. Borrow from $10,000 to $5,000,000 for 12 months with a maximum initial loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of 50%. No credit check required.

• Get Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) starting at at 9.5%² for monthly payment loans and 10.5%² for payment-at-maturity loans. For example, if you open a $10,000 payment-at-maturity loan at 13% APR, you would repay $11,300 (principal plus interest) one year later, assuming you maintain the required loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. Rates, interest, and payment amounts are estimates for illustrative purposes only. The actual APR, loan term, and payment amount will be disclosed before accepting the loan.

Ratings and reviews

Horrible signup experience. Waited over a day just for ID verification that takes other exchanges seconds or minutes to do. After no updates I emailed support and waited another half day only to be told they needed even more documentation on top of the drivers license and selfie I submitted. Then after telling them to cancel my account they kept spamming me to finish setting up my account! Thought I would try something different than Coinbase or Kraken but they blew it. First impressions count!

The UI is terrible. No way to check your unrealized gains at all? Also, the pending bank deposits are atrociously long. Not only do you have to wait through Strikes pending availability, but once it clears, you still have to wait 3 days for it clear your bank account. This can take up to 7 days. Absurd. I just love having money hung-up in limbo.

Edit: I still don't know what occurred but they restored my account. Will continue to use in small amounts to see how things go. I really do like the platform and hope it's smooth sailing going. I've been a customer and promotor from the early days of Strike. Recently they locked up my account without notice and they were requiring me to submit a photo with my id and some other bs. Some of the worst customer experience I've ever had. I recommend you to avoid so the same doesn't happen to you!
