Bitbridge Capital Strategies (OTC: BTTL) Unveils the Bitcoin Respect(TM) and Bitcoin Is Life(TM) Credit Cards-A New Era of Bitcoin-Backed Consumer Finance
BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / October 16, 2025 / Bitbridge Capital Strategies, Inc. (OTC:BTTL) today announced plans to launch two consumer credit cards that redefine how Bitcoin holders access credit and participate in the broader financial system. The Bitcoin Respect™ Card and the Bitcoin Is Life™ Card together form the first dual-tier credit platform in which Bitcoin itself serves as the foundation for consumer trust, liquidity, and identity.
Two Cards, One Bitcoin Journey
The Bitcoin Respect™ Card is a premium, collateral-backed credit card designed for long-term Bitcoin holders seeking liquidity and straightforward access to credit without selling their assets. Once launched, borrowers will post Bitcoin as collateral through regulated custodians and receive a revolving U.S.-dollar credit line funded from Bitbridge's corporate treasury. The card will offer transparent, low-interest credit and segregated custody of all collateralized Bitcoin-none of which is lent, leveraged, or rehypothecated.

*Conceptual rendering, not actual card
The Bitcoin Is Life™ Card introduces a lifestyle-oriented experience for everyday users who embrace Bitcoin as culture as well as capital. It will eventually provide accessible credit lines, global purchasing power, and unique digital-experience features that integrate with market data and allow optional auto-stacking of Bitcoin with every spend. The card's dynamic design and global usability make it a statement piece for the next generation of Bitcoin-native consumers.

*Conceptual rendering, not actual card
Not just reward cards, this is credit backed by Bitcoin. The Bitcoin Respect™ and Bitcoin Is Life™ cards are not designed to be typical credit cards requiring high FICO scores and high interest rates. Bitbridge plans to launch both cards with interest rates 10% below the current credit card industry average APR of roughly 25%.
"We believe our Bitcoin backed financial strategies enable us to give significant cost savings to customers that embrace Bitcoin," said Paul Jaber Executive CEO of Bitbridge Capital Strategies. "The Bitcoin Respect™ Card rewards long-term discipline and transparency, while the Bitcoin Is Life™ Card celebrates the freedom and vitality of living in a Bitcoin economy. Together we hope they will form a new credit system for a new kind of financial citizen." Bitbridge also plans to number the first 5,000 cards issued as limited editions, with holders eventually qualifying for additional perks.
Building a Bitcoin-Native Financial Ecosystem
Both cards are planned to be issued in partnership with a U.S.-regulated bank and operate on a major global payment network (Visa or Mastercard). Credit limits will typically range from 40 % to 70 % of the U.S.-dollar value of posted Bitcoin collateral, depending on market conditions. Interest rates are expected to remain significantly below traditional unsecured credit-card averages due to the secured nature of the product.
The cards are part of Bitbridge's broader mission to create a capital-efficient, Bitcoin-aligned treasury and lending platform. By using proceeds from share offerings to fund consumer credit lines while holding Bitcoin collateral in segregated custody, Bitbridge aligns shareholder capital with a growing Bitcoin treasury-linking the value of the company directly to the world's leading digital asset.
Availability Bitbridge expects to begin limited rollout of both cards following completion of regulatory approvals and finalization of bank-network partnerships. Initial wait-list enrollment will open at bitbridgebtc.com with broader availability targeted for the first quarter of 2026.
