Why choose Borrow for your CASH loan
Solana-native CASH
Borrow CASH directly on Solana instead of treating cash as a generic off-ramp label.
Kamino market access
Borrow routes CASH loans through supported Kamino markets and shows live borrowing data before you commit.
BTC-backed collateral
Use Bitcoin-backed collateral for the loan while receiving CASH as the borrowed asset on Solana.
Self-custodial by design
Borrow never takes custody. Every action is signed from your wallet and funds cannot move without approval.
Open-term repayment
No fixed schedule. Repay whenever you want and unlock the corresponding portion of your collateral.
No platform fees on Borrow
Sats Terminal does not add a platform fee on top of the underlying protocol costs.

Translation: Pledge 1 BTC, walk away with $38,750 in CASH, pay roughly $194 a month in interest, and your position is safe unless BTC drops below $49,679 (≈ 36% drawdown). Repay any time to unlock collateral — there’s no fixed schedule.
