Backed by $4B of Institutional Assets: Solv, Avalanche, and Elixir Launch the First Institutional-Grade RWA Yield for BTC Finance

Yields from BlackRock BUIDL and Hamilton Lane SCOPE, curated by RE7.

Today, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of SolvBTC.AVAX — the first modular BTC yield vault backed by real-world assets (RWAs), born from a five-way alliance between Solv, Avalanche, Elixir, Euler, LFJ, and Balancer.

This marks a pivotal milestone: RWA-backed yield is coming to Bitcoin.

Unleashing $1.3T in Idle Bitcoin

Bitcoin holds a market cap of over $1.3 trillion, yet more than 94% of BTC remains idle, generating no yield.

Meanwhile, RWAs have exploded 10x since early 2022, now exceeding $22.1 billion in on-chain collateral, with over $6B in tokenized U.S. Treasuries alone. Traditional giants like BlackRock, Hamilton Lane, and Brevan Howard are going on-chain.

And the next meta for Bitcoin is plugging RWA into it.

Introducing SolvBTC.AVAX — Real Yield, Powered by Real Assets

SolvBTC.AVAX is a yield-bearing BTC token that brings together the best of DeFi infrastructure to unlock modular, RWA-backed returns on Bitcoin for the first time.

Deployed natively on Avalanche, it offers composable, on-chain, and institution-ready BTC yield infrastructure — for the first time.

The 5-Protocol Stack Behind BTC x RWA Yield

• Solv Protocol — Powers RWA yield for BTC. Solv automates vault strategy: from yield routing and compounding to reward tracking, wrapped into one token (SolvBTC.AVAX) with a growing NAV.
• Avalanche — Provides the scalable, low-cost Layer 1 execution layer and ecosystem incentives for Bitcoin Finance growth.
• Elixir — Mints deUSD, a stablecoin backed 1:1 partially by RWAs (U.S. Treasuries, Private credit).
• Euler — Loops deUSD via secured lending, safely increasing RWA exposure and yield potential.
• LFJ & Balancer — Deploy capital into SolvBTC-SolvBTC.AVAX and to earn swap fees and AVAX emissions — compounding returns.

Beyond Yield: Triple Incentive Flywheel

Users holding SolvBTC.AVAX benefit from three layers of reward:

• AVAX incentives based on holdings
• Elixir Potion Points based on deUSD minted
• Solv Season 2 Points based on vault participation

Seamless Strategy, Single Token

Users simply deposit BTC.b or SolvBTC → receive SolvBTC.AVAX.

The strategy works this way:

1. Mint deUSD via Elixir backed by tokenized RWAs
2. Loop deUSD on Euler to increase RWA exposure
3. Deploy capital to LFJ and Balancer for liquidity farming
4. Harvest rewards, auto-compound to BTC, and grow user’s yield position

Everything is automated for the users and users only need to hold SolvBTC.AVAX, a single token.

Why This Alliance Matters

This is more than a yield vault — it’s a blueprint for aligning Bitcoin with real-world economic cycles, making Bitcoin Finance more resilient and capital-efficient.

• Bridges crypto-native assets with non-correlated, macro-aligned yield
• Opens up scalable, transparent, institutional access to BTC yield at the RWA frontier
• Solidifies Bitcoin’s role not just as store of value — but as a productive asset
