Sui's Hashi platform is setting its sights on $500 million in Bitcoin finance commitments, according to multiple outlets. This initiative aims to expand the availability of Bitcoin-backed lending, borrowing, and decentralized finance (DeFi) products.

Anchorage Digital, a prominent crypto custodian, has been announced as a day-one partner for Hashi. Cryptopolitan reports that this partnership will provide two distinct pathways for public companies and treasury management firms to utilize Bitcoin as collateral, starting this month.

Computed by TLT from 12 months of daily closing prices. A base rate describes the past distribution of outcomes from similar price levels — it does not predict the future and ignores the specific news in this story. Crypto is volatile and past performance is not indicative of future results. Not financial advice.

What this means in naira

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₦113.29M (about $83,064.00), up 0.2% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.5% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
