What is the collateral behind Bitcoin?Like in case of Fixed deposits Money deposited acts as a collateral.In case of a car loan Car acts as a collateral.Likewise what is collateral behind Bitcoin? BTCBTC

Bitcoin is not a loan in order for it to have any collateral. You buy Bitcoin voluntarily and understanding that the price could fluctuate at any second. Bitcoin is not backed by gold, money, or any item that is of value. So if you lose your Bitcoins, there's nothing you can do about it nor you'll receive something for it has no collateral at all.
