As Bitcoin smashes through its all-time high, we’re honored to have @RyanChow_DeFi featured in @Forbes’ latest coverage on the hype wave building behind crypto adoption. Read more here: forbes.com/sites/digital-…
I had the pleasure of interviewing the Co-Founder of @SolvProtocol, @RyanChow_DeFi recently. We talked about all things BTCfi, BTC Yields, Solv, and why they chose to make a yield-bearing BTC instead of another yield bearing stablecoin, and how that bet has paid off for them.
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…
How did @RyanChow_DeFi and his team get SolvBTC TVL into the billions? It all started in 2022. BlockFi, Celsius, and co were going under. People were hungry for decentralized alternatives to earning yield on BTC. So @SolvProtocol stepped into the arena.
I see Web3 growth channels redirecting in the past months. Users are no longer entering through the “traditional” funnel: Centralized exchange → KYC → Buy → Explore. Instead, they’re discovering apps via: Wallet → DEX → Explore → Maybe KYC later And this new flow is…
I’ve thought about this exact problem every day since Q4 last year. This becomes essentially critical in the context of what Saylor said recently: on-chain proof of reserves is a bad idea. Why? Too much attack surface and meaningless without Big 4-verification. I believe it’s…
Chainlink’s Proof of Reserve solves your concerns @saylor, as it doesn’t require making your BTC addresses public Independent auditors attest to BTC holdings, which is cryptographically signed and published onchain by a decentralized oracle network @coinbase, @BitGo, @21Shares,…

Proud to see that Solv's multi-chain expansion accelerating with @chainlink’s CCIP. The result: → $2.5B+ TVL → $1.16B+ cross-chain volume → $960M+ in market cap growth Composable liquidity + programmable yield

BlackRock has initiated the first direct DeFi integration of its nearly $3 billion tokenized Treasury fund sBUIDL with Euler on the Avalanche network, utilizing Securitize’s sToken framework to enable sBUIDL tokens as on-chain collateral for lending and borrowing.…
When we started building in Bitcoin Finance, one thing became clear. Most Bitcoin “yields” in crypto come from unsustainable emissions. Structurally real BTC yield is hard because it comes from funding spreads, staking rewards, and RWA cash flows. I see Bitcoin as the macro…
