Ethereum treasury firm BTCS sold ether at a loss to keep $64 million Aave loan healthy
BTCS said its collateral management sales were meant to keep its health factor above Aave’s liquidation threshold as ETH prices fell.
- Nasdaq-Listed BTCS sold ETH at a loss to protect its $64.1 million Aave loan, as falling Ethereum prices reduce the value of the cryptocurrency backing its debt.
- Between January 1, 2025, and November 11, 2026, the company borrowed approximately $152.4 million in stablecoins through Aave, repaying around $89.4 million to expand Ethereum holdings.
- BTCS confirmed it "has not experienced any full or partial liquidation events," with 46,676 ETH backing its $64.1 million debt; liquidation risk emerges if ETH falls to around $1,717.
- The company said "Sales of ETH were executed at prices below their original cost basis," explaining transactions formed part of collateral management strategy rather than forced liquidations.
- Ethereum was trading near $1,932 on November 13, down approximately 5.6% over 24 hours. The company expects its resources to support operations for at least 12 months.
