The Problem
Over $1 trillion of Bitcoin sits idle outside DeFi. Existing wrapped-BTC solutions either rely on a single custodian (wBTC) or restrict BTC to one chain. Bitcoin holders cannot earn yield without giving up custody or fragmenting liquidity across chains.
The Solution
Solv issues SolvBTC, a universal 1:1 BTC reserve token managed by an institutional FROST multisig committee, and routes BTC into Babylon staking, basis trading, Ethena, CORE, Jupiter, and other yield venues via a Staking Abstraction Layer. Users get unified BTC liquidity across 10+ chains.
Why it Matters
Author of the ERC-3525 standard. Category-defining BTCFi platform with the broadest yield-source coverage (Babylon, CORE, Ethena, Jupiter, basis trading) and an institutional FROST-based custody committee (Antalpha, Spartan, Apollo, UOB Ventures, Gumi, IOSG).
