As a leading project in the Bitcoin finance (BTCFi) track, Solv Protocol is reshaping the role of Bitcoin as a financial asset with its innovative decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure. In May 2025, Solv announced partnerships with heavyweight partners such as Avalanche, Balancer, LFJ, Euler, and Elixir to launch the world's first Bitcoin yield product supported by institutional-level real-world assets (RWA), SolvBTC.AVAX, marking its official entry into the RWA field. This initiative not only consolidates Solv's leading position in the BTC track but also opens up new yield paths for Bitcoin holders, promoting the transformation of Bitcoin from a traditional store of value asset to a productive financial tool.
Core advantages of Solv Protocol: Institutional-level BTC financial infrastructure. The mission of Solv Protocol is to unleash the enormous potential of Bitcoin (with a market size exceeding $1.3 trillion) from its 'dormant' state into the DeFi and traditional financial ecosystem. Its core technologies include SolvBTC and Staking Abstraction Layer (SAL), providing users with secure, transparent, and efficient cross-chain staking and yield generation solutions.
SolvBTC: A universal Bitcoin reserve token
SolvBTC is a cross-chain token pegged 1:1 to Bitcoin, minted in the Solv protocol by depositing native Bitcoin (BTC) or wrapped assets (such as WBTC, BTCB, cbBTC).
Supports multiple mainstream blockchains, including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Arbitrum, etc., greatly enhancing the application flexibility of Bitcoin in DeFi scenarios (such as lending, liquidity provision, yield farming).
The reserve system is divided into core reserves (such as BTC, BTCB) and innovative reserves (such as WBTC, cbBTC), achieving real-time transparency through Chainlink's Proof of Reserve (PoR), ensuring that every SolvBTC is supported 1:1 by real Bitcoin assets.
Staking Abstraction Layer (SAL): Simplifying cross-chain staking
SAL is Solv's core innovative technology that aggregates multiple sources of income (such as staking platforms, validator rewards, DeFi strategies) to provide users with a one-stop Bitcoin staking experience.
Users do not need to deal with complex cross-chain bridging or gas fees; SAL automatically optimizes returns and ensures fund safety, lowering the barriers to DeFi participation.
The design of SAL supports both institutional and retail investors, balancing high returns with compliance, particularly suitable for scenarios with high demands for security and transparency.
Collaboration with Binance
Solv collaborates with Binance to launch Bitcoin wealth management products through the Binance Earn platform, offering annual returns of up to 3.9% and providing $SOLV token airdrop rewards.
Users can directly stake BTC on the Binance platform with a simple operation, without requiring additional wallets or technical knowledge, attracting a large number of retail users.
For example, the BNSOL Super Staking event in June 2024 requires users to stake at least 0.0001 BTCB on the BNB Chain to receive SolvBTC and $SOLV rewards, further promoting user participation.
First RWA Bitcoin yield product: SolvBTC.AVAX. SolvBTC.AVAX is a milestone product of Solv Protocol and the world's first Bitcoin yield product backed by institutional-level RWA. Through collaboration with partners like Avalanche, this product combines the enormous potential of Bitcoin with the stability of traditional finance, providing investors with new yield opportunities. Product highlights
RWA backing, connecting traditional finance
SolvBTC.AVAX integrates physical assets from BlackRock (BUIDL Fund) and Hamilton Lane (SCOPE Fund), such as U.S. Treasury bonds and private credit. These assets provide uncorrelated returns for Bitcoin staking, with an expected annual return rate between 5%-10%, far higher than traditional crypto staking products.
The introduction of RWA reduces the risk of volatility in the crypto market while meeting institutional investors' demands for compliance and stability, opening a new path for Bitcoin finance linked to the macroeconomy.
Deployed in the Avalanche ecosystem
SolvBTC.AVAX leverages the high throughput, low cost, and scalability of the Avalanche blockchain to optimize transaction efficiency and user experience.
The incentive mechanism of the Avalanche ecosystem further enhances the product's attractiveness, allowing users to earn additional ecological rewards through staking.
Easy to operate, balancing liquidity and yield
Users can obtain SolvBTC.AVAX by depositing SolvBTC or Avalanche's native BTC.b, and then stake it to earn returns.
The product design retains the liquidity of the assets, allowing users to redeem at any time or further utilize them in DeFi protocols, balancing flexibility and profitability.
Risk warnings
Although SolvBTC.AVAX offers high yield opportunities, the following risks should still be noted:
Market volatility: Price fluctuations of Bitcoin and RWA assets may affect returns.
Smart contract risks: DeFi protocols may have technical vulnerabilities.
Regulatory uncertainty: RWA involves traditional finance and may be subject to different regional regulatory policies.
Users should carefully assess risks and consult official terms before participating.
Strategic significance of SolvBTC.AVAX
Unlocking Bitcoin's potential
Currently, about 94% of Bitcoin is idle and not generating returns. SolvBTC.AVAX provides a new value-added path for Bitcoin holders through the combination of RWA and DeFi, boosting the activity in the Bitcoin market.
As the Bitcoin market continues to grow (over $1.3 trillion), Solv's products are expected to attract more institutional and retail investors into the BTCFi field.
Promoting institutional adoption
SolvBTC.AVAX is supported by top global financial institutions such as BlackRock, enhancing the product's credibility and compliance.
The real-time transparency of Chainlink PoR provides security guarantees for institutional investors, lowering the barriers to entry into the crypto market.
Expanding the global market
Solv meets the needs of regions such as the Middle East by launching products that comply with Islamic financial principles (such as SolvBTC.CORE), further expanding the global influence of Bitcoin finance.
Collaboration with platforms like Avalanche and Binance enables Solv's products to quickly reach global users, enhancing market competitiveness.
Leading BTCFi as a mainstream in DeFi
Solv Protocol fills the gap of Bitcoin in productive finance by integrating RWA and DeFi, promoting BTCFi to become an important pillar of DeFi.
Its innovative model provides a replicable template for other crypto assets, potentially triggering broader industry transformations.
Bitcoin wealth management products in collaboration with Binance
In addition to SolvBTC.AVAX, the Bitcoin wealth management products in collaboration with Binance are also an important part of its ecosystem:
Annual return rate: By staking BTC through Binance Earn, you can earn up to 3.9% annual return, with some activities offering bonus $SOLV token rewards.
Participation method: Users stake directly on the Binance platform without complex operations, suitable for beginners and professional investors.
Event case: The BNSOL Super Staking event in June 2024 requires staking 0.0001 BTCB, with rewards including SolvBTC and $SOLV tokens.
As a leader in the #BTC track, Solv Protocol is reshaping the financial role of Bitcoin through its institutional-level financial infrastructure and innovative products. SolvBTC.AVAX, as the first Bitcoin yield product backed by RWA, combines the physical assets of institutions like BlackRock with the technological advantages of Avalanche, providing users with high yield opportunities of 5%-10% while maintaining liquidity and transparency. The collaboration with Binance further lowers the participation threshold, attracting a wide range of users with an annualized wealth management product of 3.9%. Solv's strategy not only unlocks the $13 trillion market potential of Bitcoin but also promotes the integration of BTCFi with traditional finance, establishing its dominant position in the DeFi space.
