Think of Bitcoin as a block of marble—strong, valuable, but full of untapped potential. Lorenzo Protocol plays the role of a master sculptor, transforming that raw material into precise, functional works of financial design. Instead of letting BTC sit idle, Lorenzo turns it into yield-generating strategies, making advanced asset management accessible to anyone stepping into DeFi.
By December 2025, Lorenzo Protocol has clearly moved beyond “emerging project” status. With over $1 billion locked across more than 20 chains, it’s catching serious institutional attention. That momentum was reinforced when Bank of America highlighted Lorenzo in a December 16 report, encouraging major financial players to embrace blockchain innovation and pointing to Lorenzo as a standout example of translating traditional finance strategies into decentralized systems.

You can buy, sell, or hold it like any other asset, while the underlying strategy runs transparently on-chain. A volatility-focused OTF, for instance, might combine futures positions to capture premiums and reduce risk—similar to arbitrage strategies in traditional markets, but executed openly and efficiently in DeFi. For Binance users, OTFs unlock easy diversification and smarter portfolio construction alongside BTC holdings.
Liquid staking adds another layer of flexibility. By staking BTC on Lorenzo, users receive stBTC—an asset that earns rewards while remaining fully usable across DeFi. stBTC can be deployed as collateral, paired in liquidity pools, or layered into yield vaults for additional returns.
