SolvBTC, a Bitcoin-backed liquid staking token powered by Solv Protocol, is now available on Yei Finance, a DeFi network focusing on aggregating cross-chain liquidity. Today, December 12, 2025, Yei Finance (also commonly known as Clovis) announced the integration of the SolvBTC token on its DeFi platform.
By launching the SolvBTC token on its decentralized network, Yei Finance provides its users with access to a Bitcoin staking product that allows them to earn yields. The biggest limitation of Bitcoin is its inability to support smart contracts and DeFi natively. Yei Finance understands this gap as an opportunity. By integrating with the Solv Protocol, Yei provides its users with an innovative approach to connect their idle BTC tokens to greater liquidity and put them to work, and as a result, generate yields.
SolvBTC in Yei Finance: What This Means
SolvBTC is a Bitcoin-driven liquid staking token (operated by Solv Protocol), designed to enable BTC holders to participate in DeFi ecosystems and earn yields while maintaining BTC exposure. Established in April 2024, SolvBTC has quickly risen to become a key financial product within Solv’s DeFi offerings.
The above integration means that Yei Finance users can now deposit their Bitcoin tokens and mint SolvBTC, which functions as a liquid representation of staked BTC, providing customers with BTC-denominated returns. The integration with Solv also means that Bitcoin holders on the Yei Finance platform can now utilize SolvBTC across various DeFi protocols to earn greater yields in various lending platforms, DEXs, DeFi vaults, and other decentralized platforms. Yield is produced through strategies like automated compounding and liquidity provision in Solv’s DeFi vaults.
Yei Finance Thriving in DeFi
The SolvBTC token launch on the Yei Finance platform is more than just an integration. Yei Finance (CLO) is one of the rapidly growing decentralized liquidity protocols that allow users to hold their tokens, enabling them to perform several financial operations (like lending, borrowing, swapping, staking, and others) across different DeFi networks. Its TVL, which currently stands at (according to DeFillama), reflects the rising popularity of the protocol in the DeFi landscape. Despite the integration, the price of CLO has not moved much, currently trading at $0.3183, down 7.5% over the past 24 hours.
Powered by its native token (CLO), Yei Finance (also commonly known as Clovis) functions as a cross-chain liquidity platform that aims to unify fragmented funds across DeFi. In a decentralized finance landscape that is often divided by closed networks and liquidity pools, Yei runs a unified clearing and settlement platform that connects numerous blockchain networks like Ethereum, SEI, BNB Chain, and several others. Through this approach, Clovis allows crypto users to lend, exchange, move, and trade assets from a unified pool of liquidity rather than moving applications on fragmented networks across DeFi ecosystems.
With the integration of SolvBTC on the platform, Yei enables its users to put their Bitcoin tokens to work and unlock full BTC’s potential in DeFi.
