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.

Copper - ARCrypto

ARCIPEDIA · PLATFORM · CUSTODY

Plain English

Copper is a UK-headquartered institutional crypto custody and prime services platform founded in 2018. Particularly strong in European institutional crypto market. Differentiates with ClearLoop — settlement infrastructure that lets institutions trade on multiple exchanges without pre-funding accounts.

How it actually works

Cold custody plus MPC infrastructure. ClearLoop enables off-exchange settlement — assets stay in Copper custody while trading credit is extended to exchanges. Reduces counterparty risk to trading venues. Available across major asset classes and chains. FCA registration in UK.

What it means for you

For HNW users and family offices with European banking relationships, Copper is a leading non-US custody choice. ClearLoop is genuinely innovative — addresses the FTX-era lesson that exchange-held funds are at counterparty risk. Smaller scale than Coinbase Custody/BitGo but operationally distinctive.
