Bitcoin is finally paying you back.

Not on some janky chain.

Not through a maze of bridges.

But directly on NEAR.

60% APR.

No CEX.

No complex setup.

Here’s why it’s one the biggest unlock for Bitcoin in DeFi since… ever:

For years, Bitcoin’s been lazy in DeFi, part of its beauty, but currently Bitcoin looks like:

• Trillions in value

• Zero yield

• Barely composable

• Parked, idle, wasted

But that’s changing fast.

What changed?

Ref Finance, one of NEAR’s top DEXs, launched a liquidity pool:

nBTC <> NEAR

And the yield?

~60% APR

Yes. Sixty. With a single wallet.

No 12-step guide.

Just pure yield on the most dominant asset in crypto.

How it works:

• nBTC = tokenised Bitcoin on NEAR

• Satoshi Protocol lets you convert BTC → nBTC using your Bitcoin wallet

• Ref Finance provides the pool and rewards

One chain. No friction. Full composability.

Why this matters:

Most BTC just sits there.

Now some of it can earn big APR.

The nBTC <> NEAR pool gives:

• Capital efficiency (use BTC to earn APR)

• Real yield

• Clean UX (fast, low fees)

Why NEAR is becoming part of DeFi infrastructure quietly:

• Cross-chain onboarding

• Speed and scalability

• BTC integration without L2 headaches

This is more than a yield farm.

It’s a signal for change.

User benefits:

• ~60% APR (live)

• Easy onboarding via Satoshi Protocol

• Trading and LP incentives

• No token confusion

• Native to NEAR’s high-speed chain

If you hold BTC and want yield, this is the path.

Risks to know:

• APRs fluctuate as TVL increases

• Impermanent loss risk

• Smart contract exposure (standard DeFi risk)

The bottom line:

BTC is finally earning.

Natively.

No handholding.

No games.

Ref Finance.

Satoshi Protocol.

nBTC <> NEAR pool.

The king is waking up. And he’s finally working.

Proud to be working with @PinkBrains_io to get this information out to people, only $450k TVL, smells like opportunity here.
