Big news for Vield! Our CEO and Co-Founder, Johnny Phan, was recently featured on ABC News and ABC Radio’s AM program, where he shared insights into crypto loans in Australia.
In the feature, Johnny spoke about how platforms like Vield are giving Australians a new way to access credit without selling their Bitcoin or Ethereum.
The Growing Interest in Crypto Lending
The ABC segment explored the rise of crypto lending and the potential risks involved. Johnny explained that while traditional banks often overlook crypto as a legitimate asset class, companies like Vield see its potential as real, usable collateral.
“Our goal is to give crypto holders access to liquidity without forcing them to sell their assets,” Johnny said in the interview. “We believe this is the future of finance—leveraging digital assets just like you would with stocks or property.”
Addressing the Risks
Crypto lending is still a relatively new space, and the ABC feature also touched on the risks associated with the industry. Johnny emphasised Vield’s strict risk management protocols, ensuring that loans are fully collateralized to protect both the business and its customers.
“We take security and responsible lending seriously,” Johnny explained. “Our platform is designed with transparency, so borrowers always know the terms, and we only offer credit based on properly managed collateral levels.”
A Milestone for Vield
Being featured on ABC is a huge milestone for Vield and highlights how crypto-backed finance is gaining mainstream attention. With more Australians looking for alternative ways to manage their wealth, platforms like Vield are set to play a major role in the future of lending.
