TL;DR

While your loan is open, your BTC is frozen in your Roxom account and held in segregated custody, either directly by Roxom or with a regulated institutional liquidity partner. Your collateral is never lent out, never reused, and legally ring-fenced from any partner’s own assets. You retain full legal title to your BTC.

What happens to my BTC while the loan is open?

Your BTC is frozen in your account within the Roxom platform. You cannot withdraw or use it while the loan is open. Auto-Earn handoff. Auto-Earn pays you based on the daily minimum available BTC balance in your funding account. Locking BTC as collateral is treated like moving it out of the available balance, so collateral BTC stops earning Auto-Earn yield for as long as the loan is open. When you fully repay (or after any partial collateral release via Adjust → Decrease), the released BTC returns to the available balance and starts counting toward Auto-Earn again. You retain full legal title to your BTC. Roxom holds only a contractual security interest, not ownership. Collateral may be held directly by Roxom or with one of our trusted regulated institutional partners. In either case:
  • It is held in a segregated account.
  • It is legally ring-fenced from any partner’s own assets.
  • It is never lent out.

Who are Roxom’s liquidity partners?

Roxom Loans works with regulated institutional counterparties to fund its lending operations. Partners are selected based on regulatory standing, custody infrastructure, and financial soundness. In all cases, user collateral is held in segregated wallets, legally isolated from the partner’s balance sheet, and protected even in the unlikely event of a partner’s insolvency.

Can Roxom use my BTC for other purposes?

No. Your BTC is held in segregated custody, either directly by Roxom or with one of our regulated institutional liquidity partners. In all cases, collateral is:
  • Never lent out.
  • Never reused.
  • Always legally ring-fenced from any partner’s own assets.
Any material change to this policy will be disclosed, including to the regulators.

How do I know my BTC is actually segregated?

The system maintains individualized records per user with daily reconciliation. Each user’s BTC is not commingled with Roxom’s capital or other users’ assets. This is contractual and operational. A public proof-of-reserves mechanism is on the roadmap, but not currently available.

Is it insured against hacks or Roxom insolvency?

BTC is held in segregated custody, separate from Roxom’s own assets. This is not equivalent to a government-insured bank deposit. Technological and operational risks are covered through the institutional custody mechanisms described in the Terms and Conditions.
