โญ๏ธ Something big is coming - Starknet BTCFi season is here!
The BTCFi of Starknet @Starknet, which has been consistently covered, is now starting!!!
Now users can stake BTC on Starknet to receive $STRK rewards at an APR of 2-3% (LBTC, tBTC, WBTC, etc.)
Staked BTC can even be used as collateral on platforms like Vesu.
Additionally, opportunities for BTC are starting to open up with Ekubo, Re7 Bitcoin Yield Fund, and more!
Original tweet (
They really said BTCFi and are opening up everything that can be done with Bitcoin all at once!
To put it simply, now Starknet =
An ecosystem where users can enjoy various things with BTC and earn interest at the same time.
There are now various things that can be done + grants available, but let me recommend a few:
-----------
1๏ธโฃ Stake BTC directly on Starknet from the Ready or Bravos wallet!
- Currently, there are still few users, so it can yield up to 40% APR. Withdrawals take about 7 days.
--------------
2๏ธโฃ Use BTC to provide liquidity on Ekubo with BTC pairs or other pairs and earn interest!
You can find the desired pair there! BTC pairs are also seeing interest rates rise one by one, and once activated, I expect interest rates of ~5% or more from the BTC liquidity pool.
---------------
3๏ธโฃ Upcoming BTC staking -> Use LSD for landing markets.
This is Starknet's representative landing market, and support is planned for the LSD products received after BTC staking to be landed.
To put it simply, you can stake Bitcoin to earn interest while using that as collateral to take stablecoin loans for use elsewhere,
or you can loop BTC only and aim for over 10% APR.
---------------
4๏ธโฃ Use Troves to maximize interest with a Yield Strategy using BTC.
(Referral) automatically optimizes interest and manages assets.
BTC is good, and USDT also yields well, etc.!
-----------------
5๏ธโฃ Use Opus to provide staked LSD BTC as collateral for CASH (stablecoin) loans and farm with it.
You can use the LSD version of BTC staked on Starknet as collateral! Additionally, $CASH yields a basic 20% + interest, so keep that in mind.
Additionally, Re7 has mentioned that they will launch a BTC-exclusive vault offering 10-15% interest on Starknet,
(so it might be added here soon).
---------------
They are opening up a lot of things that can be done with Bitcoin.
Rewards will probably start to be added one by one, anyway!!
The vision of Starknet to introduce native staking for BTC and create numerous interests + opportunities is now beginning.
In fact, thereโs so much mentioned in the original post that I havenโt been able to try everything yet.. lol Iโll try them one by one and share more!

โจ The CEO of Starknet discusses the issues and future of Bitcoin - a 5-year roadmap starting from 2024?
Eli Ben-Sasson, the CEO of Starkware at Starknet @Starknet, talked a bit about the future of Bitcoin and Starknet.
โญ๏ธ Personally, I really respect the fact that he has been achieving things one by one since around June 2024!!!
Although it was briefly covered last year, Starknet stated that their goal is to be the central use case for Ethereum + Bitcoin.
They also expressed a desire to become both an Ethereum Layer 2 and a Bitcoin Layer 2.
Now, a little over a year has passed, and they seem to be making preparations for various things, such as the introduction of Bitcoin, BTC staking support for validators, and bridges between Bitcoin networks.
And after the realization of op_cat, they are also preparing for native Bitcoin, among other things.
----
โ๏ธ Anyway!! To briefly summarize the interview content:
- Bitcoin is an incredible asset, but there is one problem that needs to be solved in the future.
- The asset itself is too static. It is only used for wealth preservation like Rolex or Picasso's works and is not utilized elsewhere.
- But this will change. In the future, people will use Bitcoin to engage in numerous activities like earning interest and DeFi in a good UX and decentralized environment.
- This will happen not on CEX but on Bitcoin L2, and the Bitcoin L2 that wins this battle will establish itself as the settlement layer for Bitcoin (monopoly).
- I believe Starknet will win here in various aspects such as technology, privacy, and UX, and that's why I am Bullish.
----------
Personally, I think there aren't many places doing Bitcoin L2 as well as Starknet is right now.
Even though it is an Ethereum L2, it is technically and speed-wise far ahead in Bitcoin L2 as well.
Can Eli's vision for Starknet's 5-year future come true?
