Understanding Your Wallet Structure

Last updated on March 11, 2026

Understanding Your Wallet Structure

The Assets page gives you a structured view of:

  • What you hold

  • What you owe

  • What is active

  • What is transferable

Bitlease separates assets clearly to avoid confusion.
This reflects our core model:

Lease → Use → Own

Assets Page Overview

Navigate to the Assets section using the main menu or the wallet icon in the top-right corner.

NET ASSETS VALUE
When you click it, you can switch between:

  • Net Assets Value

  • Equity

  • Total Debt
    Displays total value across both wallets in your selected currency (USD default). You can also change the default between:
    (BTC)
    (USD)
    This means your total value is currently displayed in Bitcoin/Dollar terms.

FUNDING Section
Shows withdrawable stablecoins with:

  • USD balance

  • Bitcoin equivalent

  • Quick action icons

LTO Section
Shows "PRO" badge indicating dual-state custody with:

  • Total LTO Wallet value

  • Combination of Locked and Free Assets

  • Specialized action icons
    The "PRO" badge on the Assets page indicates that this is the advanced LTO Wallet with specialized custody features.

Two Primary Wallets

Bitlease separates your holdings into two distinct wallets. Each serves a specific purpose in your ownership journey.

FUNDING Wallet holds liquid capital ready for deposits, swaps, payments, and withdrawals.
LTO Wallet manages assets under active lease-to-own contracts with dual-state custody.

This separation creates clarity in how your capital flows through the platform and ensures you always know what you can access immediately versus what's committed to contracts.

FUNDING Wallet

Purpose

The FUNDING wallet is your operational wallet for all platform activities. It primarily holds stablecoins used for payments.

What Lives Here

Stablecoins such as USDT and USDC are used as payment currency. These stablecoins serve as payment currency for:

  • LTO contract down payments

  • Monthly installment payments

  • Platform fees

  • Swaps between assets

  • Withdrawals to external wallets

Fully Isolated Design

The FUNDING wallet operates completely independently from the LTO Wallet. This isolation protects your operational capital from contract obligations and provides clear separation between liquid funds and assets under lease agreements.

Asset State: Always Withdrawable

Everything in your FUNDING wallet is fully liquid. You maintain complete control and can:

  • Withdraw to external wallets via on-chain transfer

  • Send to other Bitlease users via BL Pay

  • Use for new LTO contract down payments

  • Hold without restrictions or timeframes

Accessing Your FUNDING Wallet

Navigate to the Assets section using the main menu or the wallet icon in the top-right corner.

Funding wallet is liquid and supports:

  • Deposits (fiat or stablecoins, where enabled)

  • Swaps/converts

  • Withdrawals (subject to AML/KYT rules)

Receiving free Assets

  • Current USD balance (e.g., "$0.00")

  • Bitcoin equivalent (e.g., "≈ B0.00000000")

  • Quick action buttons (add, send, transfer)

Primary Functions

On the Assets page, you can add funds using:

Add funds to funding wallet

What each method means

On-Chain Deposit

  • You deposit crypto from an external wallet

BL Pay

  • You receive funds from another BitLease user inside the platform.

Where your funds go

  • Deposited funds add to your Funding Wallet balance.

Send/Withdraw

On the Assets page, you can withdraw funds using:

  • On-Chain Withdrawal (to external wallets)

  • BL Pay (to other Bitlease users)

    Send/Withdraw funds

    Transfer
    BitLease supports internal transfers between:

  • Funding Wallet

  • LTO Wallet
    This matters because:

  • Installments are paid from the LTO Wallet.

  • The system does not auto-deduct from Funding. You control transfers.

Transfer from Funding → LTO when:

  • Your LTO Wallet balance is not enough for an installment.

Transfer from LTO → Funding when:

  • You want to withdraw a Free asset (withdrawable once in Funding).

1. Open the Assets page
2. Click Transfer

Internal transfers between Funding and LTO wallet


3. Choose direction:

  • Funding → LTO

  • LTO → Funding
    4. Enter the amount
    5. Confirm the transfer

LTO Wallet

The LTO Wallet activates when you open an LTO contract. It holds assets tied to contract conditions. It manages assets you're acquiring through installment payments.

Dual-State Custody System

Unlike the FUNDING wallet, the LTO Wallet operates with two distinct asset states running simultaneously. Dual-state custody means assets can exist in either Locked or Free status inside the same wallet

LTO Wallet

Balances Tab
The Balances tab shows:

  • Assets available in your wallets

  • Funding balances

  • LTO balances

  • Available assets for transfer

If empty, you will see:

No LTO Balance
Transfer funds from your Funding wallet to start.

Obligations Tab
When you start a Lease-to-Own contract:

  • You receive economic utility

  • You commit to installment payments

  • Ownership transfers after Full Settlement

This is the Lease → Use → Own cycle.
The Obligations tab displays:

  • Active LTO contracts

  • Installment schedules

  • Outstanding amounts

  • Due dates

If empty, you will see:

No Obligations
You don’t have any active lease-to-own positions.

LTO Wallet's Details

What “Next Due (Total)” Means

This shows:

  • Your next installment amount

  • Across all contracts

  • Combined into one value
    If no contracts exist:

It shows: N/A

What "Locked Assets" Means

Locked Assets


Locked Assets are contract-bound and non-transferable during active LTO agreements. Locked assets are held under institutional-grade MPC custody and remain non-withdrawable until contract completion.

Characteristics

Contract-Bound
Assets tied to active LTO contracts. You're paying for these assets through installment plans, so they remain restricted until you achieve 100% ownership.
Non-Transferable
Cannot be withdrawn, sent, swapped, or moved while locked. The contract terms enforce this restriction.
MPC-Custodied
Protected by institutional-grade Multi-Party Computation custody. This provides security without single points of failure.

When Assets Lock

Assets lock in your LTO Wallet the moment you open an LTO contract. Your down payment processes, the platform acquires the cryptocurrency at the current market price, and the asset is allocated to your LTO Wallet in a locked state.

Lock Duration

Assets remain locked throughout your entire contract term. Contract duration depends on the selected LTO model and chosen repayment structure.

What You Can See

Even while locked, you maintain full visibility:

  • Current market value of locked assets

  • Your equity percentage (ownership stake)

  • Remaining payment obligations

  • Progress toward 100% ownership

Navigate to the Owning section for detailed breakdowns of locked asset status and payment schedules.

What "Free Assets" Means

Free Assets


Free Assets become withdrawable once transferred to the Funding Wallet. These include staking rewards, termination surplus, and released assets after contract completion.

Characteristics

Staking Rewards
Yield generated from LTO Staking Delegation appears as Free Assets. These rewards belong to you immediately and aren't subject to contract restrictions.

Termination Surplus
If a contract terminates with remaining asset value after all obligations are settled, the surplus becomes Free Assets in your LTO Wallet.

Released Assets
Upon completing all contract payments and achieving 100% equity, locked assets convert to Free Assets automatically.

Asset State: Withdrawable

Free Assets in the LTO Wallet become withdrawable once transferred to the Funding Wallet and usable for installments (payments toward other LTO contracts). You have full control over these assets.

How to Use Free Assets

Withdraw
Transfer Free Assets from LTO Wallet to external wallets via on-chain withdrawal.

Apply to New Contracts or pay installments
Use Free Assets as down payments for new LTO contracts or use them directly to pay installments.

Full Settlement Process

What Happens at Contract Completion

When you complete all installment payments, Full Settlement occurs automatically.

User repays all remaining installments → ownership unlocks instantly

This means:

  1. You make your final monthly payment

  2. Platform confirms payment received

  3. Contract closes automatically

  4. Locked Assets convert to Free Assets

  5. You achieve 100% ownership

Full Settlement happens instantly upon final payment confirmation.

After Full Settlement

Your newly released Free Assets appear in the LTO Wallet. You can now:

  • Withdraw to personal custody

  • Use for new LTO contract down payments

  • Transfer between wallets as needed

Asset Flow Between Wallets

Understanding Movement

Only USDT and USDC can be transferred between FUNDING and LTO wallets.

FUNDING → LTO
Transfer stablecoins to prepare for LTO payments or to hold in the LTO Wallet structure.

LTO → FUNDING
Move Free Assets (USDT/USDC) from LTO back to FUNDING for withdrawal or operational use.

Transfer Restrictions

Locked Assets in LTO Wallet:
Cannot transfer. These remain contract-bound until Full Settlement.

Free Assets in LTO Wallet:
Can transfer to FUNDING if they are USDT or USDC. Other cryptocurrencies must be withdrawn directly or used for new LTO contracts.

FUNDING Wallet Assets:
Can transfer to LTO Wallet (USDT/USDC only).

Summary

Bitlease's wallet structure provides clarity through purposeful separation.

FUNDING Wallet is your operational center, fully liquid stablecoins ready for any action, including deposits, payments, swaps, and withdrawals. Fully isolated from LTO contracts.

LTO Wallet uses dual-state custody to manage your ownership journey. Locked Assets are contract-bound and MPC-custodied until you complete payments. Free Assets are yours outright, staking rewards, termination surplus, and released assets after Full Settlement.

Understanding this structure helps you manage deposits, track progress, make payments on time, and know exactly what you control at every stage from lease to full ownership.
