Automation & Permissions

Borrow automates the technical steps involved in completing a bitcoin-backed loan so you do not need to manage multiple wallets, networks, or smart-contract interactions yourself.

These automated steps always require your explicit approval.

What Borrow automates

To complete a loan, Borrow may automate certain operational tasks such as:

  • preparing your BTC collateral for the selected lender

  • supplying the collateral on your behalf

  • delivering stablecoins to your wallet once the loan is finalized

These steps are shown clearly as they occur.


Permissions you approve

Before Borrow performs an automated step, you will be asked to approve the specific action.

These permissions:

  • apply only to the loan you have chosen

  • do not allow Borrow to access unrelated assets in your wallet

Borrow cannot execute any action without your confirmation.


What Borrow cannot do

There are important limits to what Borrow is able to access or automate:

  • Borrow cannot withdraw assets from your wallet outside the approved loan operations

  • Borrow cannot alter your collateral or loan terms without your involvement

  • Borrow cannot access personal information beyond your email address

  • Borrow cannot intervene in a loan held by a custodial lender

All actions rely on user approval and lender rules.


Visibility and transparency

Throughout the process, the Borrow interface shows:

  • which step is being performed

  • what action is about to occur

  • when a permission is required

  • when collateral has been supplied and when stablecoins have arrived

This ensures you always understand what is happening behind the scenes.
