I think for guarantees and who guarantees the development of crypto currencies does not yet exist and guarantees are our confidence and patience in investing with cryptocurrencies

Markets are the collateral, that equilibrium between how much want to pay for a btc and how much want to earn while selling a btc.

If you visit https://bitcoinwisdom.com/ you will see the main markets in live action  Wink

All those orders place a bitcoin price, and the current price * total bitcoins, makes the market capitalization (MKT CAP $111.95B)  And that number is the real collateral 111 Billions are the backup  Grin

Collateral is a property or other assets that a borrower offers to a lender to secure a loan, but bitcoin isn't a loan. Bitcoin is also a decentralized body therefore it isn't controlled by a particular individual.

No one can consider Bitcoin investment as a bank loan or any other investment action we take in the real world this is very new to the world so I don't think there are any collateral behind Bitcoin or its investments and the investor should accept the profit and the loss both in the same way according to the price variation that will happen after the investment and nothing can be expect more than that

It doesn't have any collateral behind it because it's value is fiat. Projects like Tether need a collateral because it's price is pegged to 1$ value, it has to be backed by a real dollar.

I guess there is no collateral behind bitcoin and the positive thing about it is we can do who we want it to do there is no one whom you have to give answer.

There is no collateral that is why there are lot of criticism against this investment like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett in which they said that Bitcoin will not last because it has no collateral for the sake of the investors but Bitcoin already build a deep foundation of trust among the people that even it has no commodity to promote but still the people will pour their investments to this coin.

Nothing collateral can be expect behind a Bitcoin investment or a purchase because unlike a bank load or a property investment the only thing you will have after a Bitcoin investment is some curencies for the amount you used to bought and also there will be no once to guarantee  you safety except you which is unlike how normal centralized financial corporations work in the real world

All I know btc is a crypto currency for investment and also used as a payment system. BTC is not like fiat currency that you may able to apply for a loan and has a collateral requirement. It does not work for btc in the current situation and we still don't know in the future what will happen next.

there is no collateral for bitcoin, because when buying bitcoin you only need to have money and not need other conditions, such as when borrowing money at a bank.

There is no collateral behind Bitcoin because it is a decentralized digital currency which was bought spending your wealth but there is nothing anymore and the only thing you posses is Bitcoin and the profit you might gain by spending it in the future is it increases in price and if didn't that is you problem too but there is no collateral

Crypto is now being used as a collateral to obtain loans. One of them that is offering this is Nexo. By pledging the assets of the holders, rather than selling them, crypto holders can obtain immediate money and keep the upside of future value appreciation of their crypto currencies and tokens.

Bitcoin does not have any collateral. Collateral are generally given while providing loans for the security of the service. Bitcoin is based on decentralized system. And so, Bitcoin is neither a loan, nor it needs collateral for its security.

We know BTC is decentralised so it has no collateral in it. Moreover, BTC is not a loan so there is no collateral system. We buy BTC knowing the fact that it’s price can fluctuate anytime. It is not like fiat thats why it has no system like that.

What you are meaning by collateral doesn't go with bitcoin actually because bitcoin is not like fiat currency. Bitcoin is decentralized and virtual currency. Nothing is collateral behind bitcoin. It itself is it's collateral.

Bitcoin is not about debt that actually must use assurance. It's about investment or sell and buy where you first must put your money to start the trading that no nedd assurance.
