TREE NEWS update: Riot Platforms voluntarily repaid all outstanding principal and accrued interest on its $200 million credit facility with Coinbase Credit on Sept. 21, terminating the loan without prepayment penalties. The loan, fully drawn at a fixed 6.15% annual rate and originally maturing April 20, 2027, was secured by BTC, USDC and cash collateral, whose security interests were released on repayment.
Riot Platforms Repays $200M Coinbase Credit Line, Frees 5,821 BTC Collateral
This is a balance-sheet signal more than a mining story: Riot is trading debt for full control of its bitcoin, and the released collateral — BTC, USDC and cash — now sits unencumbered on its own books. For peers carrying similar Coinbase-backed facilities, the move sets a comparison point on cost of capital and collateral flexibility. Whether other miners follow with early repayments, and how Riot deploys the freed collateral, is the open question.
