Borrowing on a chain should not mean betting your BTC on that chain. Institutions already do this with triparty arrangements. Bitcoin Collateral Vaults brings this experience on chain.

Most bitcoin:native sits idle and @ZestProtocol is building a different path through native collateral vaults. Co-Founder @TychoOnnasch tells @BasselSabri at @DeFinition_evt the model mirrors how gold works: “Bitcoin stays put while its value works elsewhere,” turning it into productive capital without wrapping or bridging.

Users borrowing against sBTC on Zest Protocol @Stacks market earn 1.3% on their sBTC. How? Every loop in the Levered Bitcoin Staking Vault borrows sBTC. Borrowed sBTC lifts utilisation, and utilisation pays the sBTC supply.

Bitcoin is the strongest collateral asset ever created. Bitcoin Collateral Vaults: BTC stays on Bitcoin while its value works on other chains.
