Bitcoin—ultimate smart, but often idle. Meanwhile, DeFi is spurring innovation elsewhere. Now, @BounceBit brings the best of both worlds: native BTC earning yield without wrapping or altering Bitcoin itself.
Their custody-first CeDeFi model empowers users to:
🛡 Restake BTC across chains with institutional-grade partners
🏦 Access BlackRock-style treasury strategies, tokenized on-chain
⚖ Use BTC as collateral in DeFi while keeping custody security tight
And the brilliance—financial NFTs—represent every yield position with auditable risk profiles. This isn’t a synthetic Bitcoin; it’s authentic Satoshi-era Bitcoin gaining new utility, true to its ethos. #BounceBitPrime, $BB—it might just make Bitcoin work in DeFi on Bitcoin’s terms.
$BB Token & BounceBit: What’s New and Noteworthy
CeDeFi Platform with Real Institutional Yield
BounceBit offers institutional-grade, market-neutral yield strategies—like arbitrage and basis trades—while holding assets in regulated custody. Users deposit BTC or stablecoins into Liquid Custody Tokens (LCTs), which rebalance yield through rebasing.
BB Prime: Merging Tokenized Treasuries with DeFi
On August 5, 2025, BounceBit launched BB Prime, enabling tokenized U.S. Treasuries (via Franklin Templeton’s BENJI fund) to be used as collateral in yield-generating DeFi strategies. Franklin Templeton’s BENJI fund delivers a stable ~4.5% yield, now stackable with crypto arbitrage opportunities.
A buyback program also kicked off, with over $10 million in protocol revenue already allocated to repurchase $BB tokens.
Fast-Moving Roadmap & Ecosystem Expansion
xRWA, introduced in July 2025, allows tokenized real-world assets (like equities, bonds, funds) to be staked alongside $BB.
The platform also launched BounceBit Trade, a high-leverage futures platform with up to 50× leverage and over 50 trading pairs.
Integration of a stablecoin USD1—backed by U.S. Treasuries—boosts capital efficiency.
Layer-1 Blockchain Secured by BTC and $BB
BounceBit chain is an EVM-compatible, dual-token PoS Layer-1 network secured by both Bitcoin (via BBTC) and $BB. Gas, staking, governance, and yield functions all circle back to $BB’s utility.
Price & Market Snapshot
As of latest data, BBtrades around $0.12–$0.13 USD. Market cap ranges from $50M to $83M, with a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of up to $250M.
Notably, BB had a 1-year price drop of over 50%, but recently saw a 19% bounce from cycle lows in mid-2025.
BounceBit’s CeDeFi architecture is helping Bitcoin stop sitting idle. With tools like BTC restaking, tokenized Treasuries, real-world asset staking, and financial NFTs—all while preserving custody security—it’s building bridges between institutional capital and DeFi.
