Thomas Pacchia sits down with Jonathan Melton (Head of Lending at Unchained) for a fireside chat and open Q&A about:
Why Melton left Wall Street to build Bitcoin-native lending infrastructure
How Unchained’s multi-institution custody model protects against counterparty and rehypothecation risk
What makes collateralized lending on Bitcoin fundamentally different from fiat debt markets
Why most “bitcoin-backed loans” still rely on fiat rails
How Unchained evaluates risk, liquidity, and client behavior across bear and bull markets
Why Melton believes the next generation of bitcoiners won’t think of borrowing and custody as separate concepts
