📈 There's an interesting phenomenon: many people hold BTC longer than they hold any stocks, yet during that time, BTC hasn't really done anything.

I recently started trying to change that.

⏳ Letting idle BTC move

My idea is simple—since I don't plan to sell in the short term, I need to find a way to let it participate in some stable income channels during this time. Not those high-risk leverage plays, but a model where I can clearly see where the funds are going and how they are operating.

The first step I took was to convert BTC into a verifiable on-chain reserve format, so it can be used in more financial scenarios, rather than just lying in the wallet.

🌍 A few doors opened

• Stable channel: Access to an asset pool linked to short-term USD bonds and fund notes, with low yield volatility and a base annualized return of around 4%-5%.

• On-chain staking: Participating BTC in the network's staking mechanism, earning a bit of income daily, which can be considered a part-time job for the coin.

🛡 Why feel secure

• Fully traceable on-chain, with transparent fund flows.

• Third-party audits and reserve proofs, no need to rely on a sense of trust for “blind investment.”

• Can exchange back to native BTC at any time, not locked in long-term.

💬 Experience summary

In the past bear market, my BTC was just sitting quietly waiting for the market to change; now it generates some cash flow for me every day. Although the returns are not explosive, this steady growth makes holding the coin less agonizing.

Sometimes, investing doesn't necessarily mean chasing the fastest track; making good use of the assets in hand is the advantage of a long-term player.@Solv Protocol #btcunbound $SOLV
