2022 was the year it all broke. BlockFi. Celsius. 3AC. FTX. Everyone chasing “safe” yield on their Bitcoin suddenly realized: the yields weren't real. And for me, that changed everything. I’d been in crypto long enough to believe in decentralization, but it wasn’t until that moment that I truly understood what it meant to build infrastructure people could trust without trusting us. We asked ourselves a simple question: What would it take for someone to confidently put their BTC to work, without giving up self-custody, transparency, or optionality? That’s when the idea behind SolvBTC was born. We didn’t try to promise insane yields. We focused on building yield primitives, real engines that generate real returns: • Delta-neutral DeFi strategies • Borrow-lend loops with stablecoins • Structured yield from integrations like Binance Launchpool We also took compliance seriously, long before most DeFi protocols did by getting SolvBTC vaults certified as Shariah-compliant. Fast forward: • In one year, we crossed $100M in TVL. • In two, we passed $1B. • Now, we cross $2B. And that’s only the beginning.
