LBTC turns $BTC into a yield‑bearing collateral layer → Bitcoin capital markets wake up
With @Lombard_Finance you stake native BTC, mint $LBTC 1:1 on EVM for composability, and earn BTC‑denominated rewards via @babylonlabs_io’s staking pool while your deposits stay verifiable onchain
Security Consortium matters:
- 14 institutions secure the protocol with reputation at stake
- Institutional‑grade custody design without single‑point custodians
- Cross‑chain attestations + audited infra for easy integrations
- Compliance‑first architecture for real‑world counterparties
What this unlocks:
+ Borrow/liquidity with $LBTC as pristine collateral
+ Programmatic yield streams returning to BTC holders
+ Safer Bitcoin DeFi rails for apps and treasuries
$BARD aligns builders, ambassadors, and users to grow LBTC utility
