#LorenzoProtocol @Lorenzo Protocol $BANK
In the ever-changing DeFi environment, the name that stands out at the current moment is the Lorenzo Protocol, which tries to fill the gap that exists between the great security that Bitcoin offers and the ability of new smart contracts platforms to offer some kind of return. This is being achieved by being called the "Financial Abstraction Layer.”
Currently, as of late in 2025, the development of the protocol has marked many key milestones in establishing its foundation stone within the world of Bitcoin DeFi.
"Recent Partnerships: Expanding the Web of Liquidity"
"Lorenzo Protocol's approach to growth is centered around impactful integrations that unlock value for its liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and its native governance token, BANK. There have been a slew of strategic partnerships that have transpired over the past few months that deserve mentioning:"
1. Enhancing the Move Ecosystem (Sui Network)
Lorenzo has recently partnered with NAVI Protocol and Cetus in the world of the Sui Network. These collaborations are expected to facilitate access to BTC liquidity within the Move ecosystem. As such, consumers are expected to be in a position to leverage the liquidity provided by bitcoin on the Move platform.
2. Integration with World Liberty Financial (WLFI)
In a move that combines DeFi with institutional quality stability, Lorenzo’s flagship product, the USD1 Plus OTF (On-Chain Traded Fund), now exclusively settles with USD1, which is a stable coin issued by World Liberty Financial. This synergy brings a dose of regulatory stability to the yield products offered by Lorenzo.
3. Bitcoin Layer 2 Synergy: BitLayer
Lorenzo has strengthened its partnership with Bitlayer, which is the first Layer 2 security equivalent on the BitVM model and is based on Bitcoin. By participating in joint growth programs and NFT events both protocols are working towards providing an integrated user experience of staking BTC and L2 dApps without losing liquidity.
Ecosystem Growth: Staking to Asset Management
The year 2025 represents a transformative period for the internal ecosystem of Lorenzo, with a transition from a staking provider to all-inside asset managers.
The Emergence of On-Chain Traded Funds (OTFs)
Lorenzo introduced the OTF model—the first bond-like portfolios broken down into tokens that combine different sources of yield generation (RWA, DeFi, and quants) into one investment. The launch of the USD1 Plus OTF on the BNB Chain was met with huge success, particularly for those interested in “TradFi-style” investment portfolio management with “DeFi-style” transparency.
TVL & Market Adoption
* Total Value Locked (TVL) - The total value locked for this protocol touched over $700 million in 2025, indicating huge trust in its liquid staking solutions such as stBTC (Babylon’s Bitcoin staked), enzoBTC, and others.
* Maturity: The native token, BANK, reached an important stage when it got listed on the Binance platform in November 2025. The fact that the token has got listed on multiple exchange platforms, namely HTX, Poloniex, and Tapbit, has increased its liquidity worldwide to a considerable degree.
Security and Infrastructure
The presence of a “security-first” culture has been maintained by Lorenzo, with recent integration with the security scoring system by CertiK Skynet. The protocol has also completed comprehensive audits of its foundational contracts in mid-2025, thereby providing a strong foundation for its successful adoption in a multi-chain setup (Ethereum, Solana, and others).
I have to state,
The path ahead,
A chain-
“The Lorenzo Protocol is no longer a 'Bitcoin project.’ With the Financial Abstraction Layer the protocol is building, the aim is to make advanced methods for generating yield available to anyone who has a crypto wallet.” Whether this involves the Sui Network or the BNB Chain, the net result of what the Lorenzo Protocol is doing is taking “dormant” Bitcoin and making it the “most productive asset on the digital map.”
> Key Takeaway: The Lorenzo Protocol is harmoniously combining the rigor of traditional fund management with the concepts of the blockchain world to develop a sustainable ecosystem in which the liquidity will never be idle.
