The Problem
Bitcoin is the most secure and liquid asset in crypto but generates no native yield, and wrapped Bitcoin tokens introduce centralized custodian risk without solving the productivity problem.
The Solution
Lombard issues LBTC, a yield-bearing 1:1 Bitcoin-backed liquid-staked token secured by a 14-institution consortium with 2/3 signing and hardware HSMs — combining Babylon's native BTC staking yield with full DeFi composability on Ethereum, Solana and 12+ other chains.
Why it Matters
First multi-institution consortium-secured liquid Bitcoin token. Independent dual verification (consortium + Bascule), CubeSigner HSM key management, real-time Proof-of-Reserves, and cross-chain mint via Chainlink CCIP. Reached $1B TVL faster than any prior LST.
