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.

Liquid Staking - ARCrypto

ARCIPEDIA · YIELD

Plain English

Liquid staking is a way to stake ETH (or other proof-of-stake assets) while receiving a transferable token that represents your staked position plus accumulated yield. Lido’s stETH is the largest example.

How it actually works

You deposit ETH into the liquid-staking protocol. The protocol runs validators on your behalf and mints you a liquid token (stETH, rETH, cbETH) at a 1:1 ratio. The token accrues yield over time. You can sell, transfer, or use it as DeFi collateral while your underlying ETH remains staked. To unstake, you redeem the liquid token back for ETH — subject to the chain’s unstaking queue.

What it means for you

For ETH stakers, liquid staking solves the capital-efficiency problem of native staking. You earn validator rewards AND keep the asset usable as collateral. The trade-off is protocol risk (one more layer of smart contracts) and validator concentration risk.

How ARCrypto teaches this

The curriculum covers liquid-staking protocol selection, the practical differences between Lido, Rocket Pool, and Coinbase’s cbETH, and how to deploy stETH as collateral in lending strategies.
