Happy mid-week, champs!
You’ve probably been hearing the buzzword BTCFi lately.

You might wonder, what is BTCFi, and why is everyone talking about it?

Let’s break it down in the simplest way possible 🧵👇

BTCFi = Bitcoin + DeFi
Think of it as giving your Bitcoin superpowers.

Instead of just holding BTC, you can now: 
✔ Stake it
✔ Lend it
✔ Earn yield
✔ Trade it
✔ Use it as collateral
✔ Access stablecoins

And the best part? You stay in full control (non-custodial).
