SOLV Token Launch: A Step Towards the Future of Bitcoin Finance
Bitcoin Finance has evolved from a simple buy-and-hold game to a dynamic, ever-expanding ecosystem bridging Traditional Finance (TradFi), Centralized Finance (CeFi), and Decentralized Finance (DeFi). Solv Protocol stands at the heart of this transformation, unlocking seamless value flow across these realms. Today, we’re thrilled to introduce the SOLV token — an asset built with fairness, sustainability, and long-term vision at its core. We believe SOLV marks the next chapter in BTC Finance, where users don’t just hold Bitcoin but actively shape its financial future.
Building on SolvBTC’s Momentum
Since launching SolvBTC in April 2024, over 25,000 BTC have been deposited into Solv, making it one of the fastest-growing Bitcoin holdings in DeFi. In fact, our Bitcoin Reserve now stands as:
- 7th Largest when compared to Bitcoin ETFs
- 5th Largest when compared to Government-owned BTC reserves
- 8th Largest when compared to Private & Public Companies Worldwide
Moreover, nearly 90%+ of that Bitcoin is actively engaged — whether staked in Solv’s LSTs or providing liquidity in ecosystems we’ve integrated with. This underscores our commitment to ensuring that Bitcoin doesn’t simply sit idle, but works to generate real yields for users.

- All claims will be processed on the BNB network. Please ensure you have a small amount of BNB in your wallet for gas fees.

NOTE:
solv.foundation/claim is the ONLY official Solv claim link. If in doubt, please visit https://solv.finance and navigate to the “Claim $SOLV” tab directly. For your safety, do NOT click on any links from third parties claiming to be associated with Solv.
Token Allocation & Distribution Rules
Our goal is to build a community-driven, on-chain Bitcoin reserve. To achieve this, 7.65% of the total SOLV supply will be distributed specifically through Solv Foundation, as detailed below:
- 7.25% for Solv Points System Season 1 Participants
- 0.25% for early supporters (Vesting Voucher holders, KYC-ed users, Seahorse Points holders, etc)
- 0.15% for the OKX Cryptopedia Campaign Eligible Participants
Among these recipients, 99% of users receive 100% of their SOLV immediately, while the top 1% addresses will face a 3-month lock-up aimed at fostering long-term stability. Any unclaimed or forfeited tokens by large users who exit early will go back to the Community Rewards & DAO Treasury.
3-Month Lock-Up & Vesting (Top 1% Wallets)
- 40% of SOLV is liquid at launch
2. Remaining 60% vests linearly over 3 months:
- 20% unlocked after Month 1
- 20% unlocked after Month 2
- 20% unlocked after Month 3
3. Key Condition: Each vesting portion requires that your average daily holdings in Season 2 is no less than your average daily holdings in Season 1. A drop in Season 2 holdings will reduce your claim proportionally.
4. Note: Pendle YT assets and Tranchess Turbo tokens are excluded from these conditions (e.g., if you hold Pendle YT, you remain subject to vesting but not the average holdings requirement for that portion).
For more detailed rules, refer to Solv’s documentation.
Additional Allocations
Beyond the standard airdrop categories, we have three special groups who may also receive SOLV:
- Binance Web3 Wallet Airdrop
- In collaboration with Binance Wallet, an exclusive 0.15% of SOLV is allocated for eligible users from the Binance Web3 Wallet campaign.
- These tokens will be airdropped directly by Binance Wallet.
2. OKX Bitcoin Mainnet Airdrop
- In collaboration with OKX Wallet, we ran a campaign to onboard idle BTC by airdropping SOLV to BTC holders on OKX.
- Eligible users can verify and claim their tokens at solv.foundation/claim-okx.
3. Vesting Voucher Holders
- 50% unlocked at launch and 50% unlocked after 6 months.
- A detailed tutorial on redemption can be found here.
Stay tuned to our official announcements for further details, and make sure you follow our channels to secure every token you’ve rightfully earned.

Note on Bitcoin Reserve Offering:
- Solv preliminarily plans 3 BROs, each minting 42 million SOLV tokens exclusively for convertible note sales (scheduled for Q1, Q2, and Q3 2025). These sales will acquire BTC for the protocol-owned reserve. Convertible notes mature in one year, with SOLV token claimability in Q1, Q2, and Q3 2026, respectively.
- Afterwards, further Bitcoin Reserve Offerings will be under DAO governance and the token supply may increase via network governance for Bitcoin Reserve Offering.
The Future of Bitcoin Finance is Here
The SOLV token launch is more than just a distribution event — it’s a milestone in the evolution of Bitcoin Finance. By prioritizing broad community access and a fair, transparent distribution model, we’re creating a system that empowers everyday participants to shape a decentralized, community-driven Bitcoin reserve.
