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.

Coinbase Wallet - ARCrypto

ARCIPEDIA · WALLET · SOFTWARE

Plain English

Coinbase Wallet is a separate self-custody wallet app from Coinbase the exchange. Different product, different keys, different security model — Coinbase the company does not control your funds in Coinbase Wallet. Browser extension and mobile app.

How it actually works

Supports Ethereum, all major L2s, Solana, and Bitcoin. Default RPC routing through Coinbase Cloud nodes for reliability. Integrates with Coinbase Smart Wallet (account-abstraction wallet that uses passkeys instead of seed phrases) for new users. Native USDC support with gasless transactions on Base.

What it means for you

Coinbase Wallet bridges users from the regulated CEX into DeFi smoothly. The Coinbase Smart Wallet (passkey-based) is one of the easiest onboarding flows in crypto for users who don’t want to manage seed phrases. For HNW users, the explicit Coinbase brand provides some operational comfort; security model is otherwise comparable to MetaMask.
