The simple structure:
Say BTC = $100K. A pool of investors offer you $50,000 and you put in $100K worth of Bitcoin (1BTC). You commit to buying out the investors at $70K over 48 months at 0.0208333 BTC a month and they accept the risk of Bitcoin going to zero.

The implications:
You invest the $50,000 into a business or asset to generate revenues and ideally replace the 0.0208333 BTC faster.
You could choose a fiat-equivalent payment if BTC is taxed in your jurisdiction but the fiat is still used to buy BTC for the investors.
The effective cost of capital varies but overall if Bitcoin is up long term, it can be cheaper than borrowing from the bank.
If Bitcoin is down in fiat terms, investors are bought out slower, otherwise they are bought out faster. The partnership is ended either when you run out of BTC (long bear) or the $70K cap is hit (fast bull).
Overall, investors get into BTC at a discount to market, with less volatility and you get capital upfront with the opportunity to earn more BTC. Both bear the risk, you more than the investors.
