ARCrypto is a private decentralized finance group teaching sophisticated capital how to borrow against crypto, tokenized equities, and stocks without forcing a sale or triggering a recognized disposal.

How can I borrow against my crypto?

On-chain lending markets and centralized providers extend USD or stablecoin loans against Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other crypto collateral, typically at single-digit rates. ARCrypto teaches the structure, liquidation thresholds, and counsel-aware framework.

What is Buy, Borrow, Die?

Buy, Borrow, Die is a wealth-management strategy: buy long-term appreciating assets, borrow against them instead of selling, and pass them to heirs at a stepped-up basis. ARCrypto teaches the on-chain version of the same playbook.

Are these strategies tax-compliant?

ARCrypto describes mechanical features of certain on-chain operations that are not realization events under common interpretations of major-jurisdiction tax law. ARCrypto does not replace tax counsel.

Aave (Platform) - ARCrypto

ARCIPEDIA · PLATFORM · LENDING

Plain English

Aave is the largest on-chain lending protocol by TVL. Deposit any supported asset to earn variable interest; post collateral to borrow other assets. Available on Ethereum, all major L2s, and Avalanche. The platform smart contracts back the AAVE token economy.

How it actually works

Aave V3 features: isolated lending modes, e-mode (correlated-asset boosts up to 95% LTV on ETH-staking pairs), Portal for cross-chain liquidity. GHO is the native stablecoin borrowed via Aave positions. AAVE stakers (Safety Module) earn protocol revenue but bear slashing risk on shortfalls. Multiple audits, ongoing bug bounties, formal verification on critical paths.

What it means for you

For HNW principals, Aave is the default DeFi lending venue. Borrow stablecoins against ETH/BTC collateral at conservative LTV (30%) to access liquidity without realizing capital gains — the buy-borrow-die playbook. Pair with Morpho vaults for higher-yield lending or stick with Aave native pools for maximum security.
