Bitcoin isn't just a store of value anymore. New infrastructure is making it possible to earn yield on BTC without giving up custody, but the space is early, fragmented, and evolving fast.
Growing Bitcoin is a series of free virtual events bringing together builders, researchers, and institutions to explore every major yield strategy: what works today, what's coming next, and what holders need to know.
1. The $100B+ Bitcoin yield opportunity: why Bitcoin yield is emerging as a major market category and where the growth is coming from.
2. How yield strategies actually work: staking, lending, liquidity provision, and structured products. The mechanics, tradeoffs, and real numbers.
3. Self-custody vs. custodial yield: trust models and risk frameworks for earning yield without surrendering control of your BTC.
4. Bitcoin vs. Ethereum and Solana DeFi: how Bitcoin yield compares and where it's catching up.
5. Infrastructure and what's next: the protocols and technical infrastructure powering native Bitcoin yield today and in the future.
Staking: Deploy BTC into Bitcoin layers like Stacks to secure the network and earn native Bitcoin yield through dual staking.
Lending & Borrowing: Lend BTC or use it as collateral through DeFi protocols like Zest with no intermediaries required.
Liquidity Provision: Supply BTC to decentralized exchanges like Bitflow and earn a share of trading fees.
Structured Yield: Access curated, risk-managed strategies like Hermetica’s Bitcoin Earn Vault that combine multiple yield approaches.
