About this episode
Matt Bell (@m_at_anvil), Founder of Anvil Protocol, joins Frederick Munawa (@FrederickMunawa) on the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to reveal how Anvil is unlocking new ways for users to earn yield and use crypto as working collateral — without ever selling it.
Anvil Protocol is building the infrastructure for on-chain credit and payments, enabling use cases like permissionless letters of credit, instant POS (point-of-sale) transactions, and casino markers backed by on-chain collateral. Bell explains how Anvil’s model lets users deploy their crypto as productive assets, earning yield while maintaining ownership — and avoiding forced liquidation.
This episode dives into how Anvil bridges DeFi and real-world finance, powering a new class of trust-minimized lending and payments that combine transparency, speed, and capital efficiency.
• How Anvil turns crypto into yield-bearing collateral

• Permissionless letters of credit and DeFi-native financial tools
• Avoiding liquidation while maintaining yield and liquidity
• The future of decentralized financial infrastructure
A must-listen for DeFi innovators, crypto lenders, and institutional builders exploring how on-chain credit and collateral can create real-world financial utility — without compromising on decentralization or user ownership.
