Bedrock, one of the leading multi-asset restaking protocols, introduces brBTC a transformative BTC derivative asset designed to redefine Bitcoin’s role in DeFi (decentralized finance).
As Bedrock’s innovative LRT (liquid restaking token), brBTC maximizes Bitcoin yield by enabling holders to deposit a variety of Bitcoin derivatives and earn rewards through a curated selection of advanced restaking protocols.
BTCFi 1.0 A foundation with room to grow
The evolution of BTCFi began with BTCFi 1.0, which laid the groundwork for Bitcoin’s integration into DeFi.
This phase introduced staking protocols that allowed Bitcoin holders to generate yields, providing a glimpse of Bitcoin’s potential in DeFi.
However, BTCFi 1.0 also revealed key challenges liquidity was fragmented across platforms, restaking opportunities were limited and real-world applications remained largely untapped.
A vision for BTCFi 2.0
The launch of brBTC marks the beginning of BTCFi 2.0 a new concept aimed at addressing current key challenges in BTCFi, such as fragmented liquidity, limited restaking opportunities and a lack of real-world use cases.
BTCFi 2.0 introduces a more unified and efficient ecosystem, providing sustainable yield strategies, enhanced security through layer-two solutions and integration with collaborative platforms.
In sharing his thoughts on brBTC’s launch, Zhuling Chen, core contributor at Bedrock, said,
“BrBTC will be the catalyst for driving BTCFI into its next phase, BTCFI 2.0. It will enable multi-source yield through interoperability and help to secure and unite the fragmented liquidity in the ecosystem.”
Echoing this sentiment, Calvin Zhou, another core contributor at Bedrock, added,
“By enhancing Bitcoin’s utility and staking capabilities, BTCFi 2.0 and brBTC not only unlock new financial opportunities but also strengthen the overall security and resilience of the decentralized ecosystem.”
BrBTC A game-changer for Bitcoin yield
Launching initially on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with plans to expand to additional chains, brBTC empowers investors through three core features.
Unified ecosystem
BrBTC addresses the challenge of market fragmentation by integrating Bitcoin seamlessly across multiple DeFi platforms.
By accepting a wide range of BTC derivative assets as collateral including WBTC, FBTC, mBTC, cbBTC, BTCB and uniBTC brBTC creates a cohesive and dynamic ecosystem.
Collateral allocations are optimized across multiple staking protocols to ensure holders benefit from the most competitive yields.
Enhanced yield strategies
BrBTC offers diversified yield-generation options, extending beyond traditional staking by leveraging restaking protocols such as Babylon, Kernel, Pell, SatLayer, Mellow and Symbiotic.
Furthermore, to further strengthen brBTC’s liquidity and expand sustainable yield opportunities, Bedrock partners with Thena and MEV Capital.
These collaborations ensure a solid and well-supported ecosystem, empowering users to access competitive and scalable restaking solutions.
With scalability in mind, additional protocols and partnerships will be introduced over time to enhance yield strategies and unlock even greater opportunities.
Real-world applications
Engineered with versatility in mind, brBTC bridges the gap between digital assets and tangible utilities.
Its applications extend to collateral in financial products, enabling microtransactions, and supporting other real-world financial needs, enhancing Bitcoin’s relevance in both DeFi and TradFi (traditional finance).
With BTCFi 2.0, Bedrock is pioneering a new era for Bitcoin holders, offering tools to maximize yield, navigate a more cohesive ecosystem and explore real-world applications.
Driven by innovation and collaboration, brBTC is set to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Bitcoin in DeFi.
