USBC draws additional $3.0 million on $25.0 million Bitcoin-backed loan facility
On September 11, 2026, USBC drew an additional $3.0 million under its Master Loan Agreement with Payward Interactive, bringing total principal outstanding to $21.0 million at a fixed 8.5% annual rate, maturing September 11, 2027. The loan is secured solely by 479 Bitcoin held by an affiliate custodian, and the filing says a roughly 27.4% drop in that collateral's value would have pushed the collateral coverage ratio to the 130% collateral call margin as of September 14, 2026, though no collateral calls, mandatory repayments or liquidations had occurred.
