Institutional Asset Collateral refers to traditional financial assets, such as government bonds, real estate, or equity portfolios, that are utilized by institutional entities as security for loans or other financial obligations within the digital asset space. This practice bridges conventional finance with decentralized finance, allowing large organizations to leverage existing holdings. It provides a more familiar risk framework for institutional participation in novel financial products. Such collateral underpins significant borrowing and lending activities.
