Solv Protocol Joins Zeus Network as Institutional Guardian: Ushering BTC Yield into Solana

At Solv Protocol, we’re on a mission to unlock real-world yield opportunities for Bitcoin holders—securely, transparently, and at scale.

Now, we're taking a major step forward.

We're proud to announce that Solv is joining the Zeus Network as an Institutional Guardian, helping secure the world’s first permissionless Bitcoin bridge to Solana. Alongside institutional giants like Mechanism Capital, Animoca Brands, and Anagram, we're laying the groundwork for Bitcoin to thrive natively on Solana.

Why This Matters

Bitcoin is the largest digital asset, with over $1 trillion in liquidity—yet much of it remains idle. While DeFi has evolved, Bitcoin’s integration into onchain yield markets has lagged behind.

That changes now.

By securing the Zeus BTC bridge, we’re ensuring that Bitcoin can flow trustlessly into Solana’s high-speed, low-cost ecosystem—unlocking entirely new opportunities for yield generation, liquidity provisioning, and composability.

BTC on Solana: A Game-Changer

Solana has emerged as a powerhouse for DeFi innovation, with unmatched transaction speed and a rapidly growing user base. But until now, it lacked native access to BTC liquidity.

Here's the vision:

1% of Bitcoin = over $10B in potential capital

Deployed into RWA-backed yields via Solv Protocol

Secured through Zeus Network’s decentralized architecture

Composable across the entire Solana DeFi stack

With this bridge, Bitcoin becomes more than a passive asset—it becomes a productive, onchain yield engine.

The Role of Institutional Guardians

Zeus Network’s permissionless BTC bridge is safeguarded by a council of Institutional Guardians—trusted entities that secure validator operations and ensure the integrity of BTC transfers.

By joining this council, Solv brings its expertise in institutional-grade asset tokenization, risk management, and RWA yield infrastructure to the table. Our presence strengthens the bridge’s trust layer and accelerates adoption.

What Comes Next

Solv will enable BTC on Solana to seamlessly access RWA yield pools, allowing holders to earn from real economic activity without sacrificing security or composability.

BTC holders will be able to:

Mint BTC into Solana via Zeus

Deploy capital into curated RWA vaults on Solv

Earn sustainable, transparent yields

This is Bitcoin DeFi—rebuilt for institutions, and made accessible to all.

Final Thoughts

We believe this marks a watershed moment for Bitcoin in DeFi. Solana now becomes a new home for BTC yield—and Solv stands at the forefront of this evolution.

Let’s build the future of onchain finance together.
