You have heard about SolvBTC and LSTs (Liquid Staking Tokens), but you don't know exactly how to get the most out of them? This article is for you.
When you deposit your SolvBTC in Solv Protocol, you can receive an LST. It’s a token that represents your staked BTC but remains usable elsewhere. And that’s where it gets interesting.
Here are 5 concrete ways to use your LSTs to make your money work.
1. BORROWING WITH LEVERAGE
You can use your LST as collateral to borrow money. Then, you can buy back SolvBTC and make another deposit to get another LST. This system is called yield looping.
For example:
You deposit 10 SolvBTC in Babylon → you receive 10 SolvBTC.BBN.
You deposit these tokens in a lending protocol.
You borrow stablecoins (like USDC).
You buy back SolvBTC with these stablecoins.
You start again.
This system allows you to make more money work than you actually have.
But be careful: if the price of BTC drops too much, you risk losing everything. You need to keep a close watch.
2. PROVIDE LIQUIDITY
You can also use your LSTs to provide liquidity in pools on platforms like Uniswap or PancakeSwap.
For example:
You take 1 SolvBTC.ENA and 1 SolvBTC.
You put them in a pool.
You earn a portion of the transaction fees.
You can also receive additional rewards.
It’s a good method to generate passive income.
However, be careful of impermanent loss: if the prices of the two tokens change too much, you may lose part of your value.
3. USE MARKET-NEUTRAL STRATEGIES
Some LSTs like SolvBTC.JUP use a strategy called 'delta-neutral'. This means you can earn returns without being exposed to the price fluctuations of BTC.
For example, SolvBTC.JUP is used on the Jupiter platform, where risk is reduced by covering possible losses. You receive interest based on the fees generated by users.
It’s more complex, but more stable for those who want to avoid large losses.
4. USE LSTs ON MULTIPLE BLOCKCHAINS
Thanks to Solv Protocol technology, you can send your LSTs across multiple blockchains: Ethereum, Arbitrum, Mantle, etc.
You can thus take advantage of the best opportunities available elsewhere:
Best returns
Bonus rewards on certain chains.
You just need to know how to use a bridge (gateway between chains) and pay a few transaction fees.
5. CLAIM YOUR REWARDS
Solv Protocol rewards active users with:
Solv points (loyalty)
Partner tokens (like CORE or BERA)
Special bonuses during campaigns.
Remember to connect to your account on Solv and check regularly if you can claim something.
Reminder: some bonuses are not automatic.
CONCLUSION
With SolvBTC and LSTs, you can go well beyond simple staking.
By choosing the right strategy, you can increase your income while maintaining flexibility. And it’s not just for experts!
Even as a beginner, you can learn to grow your capital using simple methods.
