About us

Credit built
for the crypto era.

Haida Capital is reshaping how people access credit — building safe, fast, inclusive financial products on top of the cryptocurrency ecosystem since 2017.

Our story

From HODL to liquidity.

Decentralized finance shouldn't mean inaccessible finance. We started Haida Capital because the people holding the most crypto were the ones least served by traditional credit. Banks couldn't price them. Brokers made them sell.

We built a lending platform that turns digital assets into liquidity in days, not months — and does it without forcing anyone to give up their position. Eight years in, we've funded over a billion dollars in loans without ever asking a single borrower for a credit score.

Mission

Seamless, secure, instant.

Make borrowing seamless, secure, and instant — the financial services of the future, available to anyone with a wallet.

Vision

Credit without gatekeepers.

A world where the credit you access depends on what you own — not where you were born or who your bank knows.

What we stand for

Six principles,
no compromises.

The guardrails we built the company around — the rules that shape every product decision we ship.

Security first

Every borrower's collateral sits in multi-sig cold storage with account-level segregation. No single signer, no hot wallet.

Speed as a feature

Verified accounts get funded same-day. We'd rather rebuild an internal tool than ask a borrower to wait another hour.

Transparency

Rates, LTV, liquidation rules — every term is visible before you sign. No hidden fees, no surprise margin calls.

Inclusivity

Credit shouldn't depend on the country your passport was issued in. We onboard globally without traditional bureau checks.

Compliance by design

Regulated as an MSB in every jurisdiction we operate in. AML/KYC is built into the product, not bolted on.

Long-term thinking

We survived 2018, 2020, and 2022. Our book is conservatively margined — we'd rather grow slower than blow up fast.
