👩‍🌾 $BTC still controls over half of the entire crypto market cap but it has zero native yield. Meanwhile, TradFi spent decades perfecting yield systems and right now: + Only 8–11% of crypto assets generate yield + TradFi sits at 55–65% That’s a 5–6× gap, meaning crypto’s yield layer is still super early. 💟 But concepts like Yield-bearing assets (YBAs) are taking off: + $ETH and $SOL LSTs already make up ~30% of deposits on AAVE, Morpho, Kamino The only problem is BTC’s yield layer is still tiny and that’s where Yield-Bearing Bitcoin (YBB) comes in. Babylon is unlocking native BTC staking without any wrapping or bridging. 👩‍🌾 And BTC LSTs like LBTC (@Lombard_Finance) and solvBTC (@SolvProtocol) turn staked $BTC into liquid assets you can actually use across DeFi. 🪙 The next phase is simple: BTC earns yield → stays liquid → becomes a true DeFi asset. 🩷👩‍🌾 Source: @coingecko
