A New Bitcoin Move from the Company Cantor Fitzgerald by the US Secretary of Commerce!

The US-based investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald LP has launched a $2 billion Bitcoin collateralized loan program, providing financing to crypto companies FalconX Ltd. and Maple Finance.

According to statements from three companies, these agreements represent the first steps of Cantor's crypto-focused new ventures.

The crypto asset brokerage FalconX announced that it has provided Bitcoin-backed financing under a "broad credit framework" planned to exceed 100 million dollars with Cantor. Maple Finance stated that it has closed the first part of a loan package with Cantor.

This financing move is the latest link in Cantor's remarkable ventures in the crypto space. Following Howard Lutnick's departure from the CEO position to become the U.S. Secretary of Commerce in February, a subsidiary of the investment bank launched the Bitcoin accumulation initiative Twenty One Capital Inc. in April 2025, together with Tether Holdings SA and SoftBank Group.

In 2022, the crypto-collateralized lending market, shaken by the collapse of major companies such as Celsius Network Ltd. and BlockFi Inc., is showing signs of recovery. Recently, Bitcoin software firm Blockstream Corp. received a high-level investment, while crypto asset manager Xapo Bank also began offering Bitcoin-backed lending services of up to 1 million dollars in March.

Cantor announced a $2 billion lending initiative in July 2024 aimed at providing leveraged financing to Bitcoin holders.
