Some people are still bringing up DeFi, but come on, the problem is that projects like Solv aren’t even DeFi. Bitcoin doesn’t have native smart contracts, so it can’t do DeFi. If you want to lend or earn yield with BTC, you either deposit it into an exchange or wrap it into some cross-chain xxBTC. At that point, you’ve already given up ownership of your BTC and are holding debt issued by the project team. The long-term goal of holding BTC is for its market cap to surpass gold, with a single coin starting at $1 million. What’s the APY on that? You can calculate it yourself or let AI do it—it’s definitely more than single-digit APY, right? Giving up precious self-custody for a measly 3% APY is just penny-wise and pound-foolish. And if you don’t have that kind of goal, then maybe don’t bother buying BTC. Just stick to stablecoins and play with real top-tier DeFi protocols (safer), or use top-tier CEXs (better compensation willingness and ability). Getting 5-8% APY isn’t hard, and there’s no way something like Solv, a fake DeFi protocol, should even be in the conversation. The guy who rushed into Solv with 50 BTC—doesn’t that just show a lack of understanding?
