Babylon phrase: stake your BTC and get rewarded. The Babylon team has done an amazing job

A crypto mortgage lets you leverage your BTC or ETH to invest in real estate. Instead of selling your crypto, you can use it as collateral to qualify and secure a mortgage. Apply in minutes and close your mortgage in weeks without losing the upside of your crypto asset.

TAO co-founder Const explains the difference between mining BTC and mining TAO “People try to mine Bitcoin, and if they can do it faster, they get paid. Bittensor takes that same idea and turns it into a system where people compete to solve problems, get evaluated, and the best performers earn more, over and over again. We took the Bitcoin model, abstracted it, and applied it to everything”

So, does it matter that Bitcoin seems to be moving away from its cypherpunk roots? Bitcoin ETFs and Bitcoin Treasuries have taken BTC mainstream. So I asked Saifedean Ammous this very question. His answer might surprise you... 👀👇 "If you have very strong feelings about how people should and shouldn't use Bitcoin, you're in for a rough time." "To be honest, a lot of people project too much onto Bitcoin. Ultimately, it's just a bunch of software and anybody can use it in any way they want. Initially, it's a small subset of people that use it and then they start projecting their values onto it. And then over time, they expect it to continue to abide by that," Ammous said. "If it's a successful technology, it's going to be used by everybody. It's going to be used by small businesses, large businesses, governments, individuals. It's money. Everybody uses money. There are 8.5 billion people on Earth, they all use money and they're all going to continue to use money. And Bitcoin is just the best money." Ultimately, the protocol itself is immune to the financial instruments that TradFi has concocted. If people want to lend against their BTC or create complex financial products, that does not actually impact the underlying network. "The way that the protocol works is that it's completely blind to what you're doing with your coins on the Bitcoin blockchain there is no paper Bitcoin there's no such thing as paper Bitcoin there's only 21 million Bitcoin and every node makes sure of that every 10 minutes and then if somebody who has some of these Bitcoin on their private key decides to sell obligations or financial liabilities referring to that Bitcoin under any condition, that's their choice. It's outside of Bitcoin and it's outside of the realm of other Bitcoin users being able to say this is right or wrong and this should happen or shouldn't happen. People are going to do whatever they want with the Bitcoin, including selling access to it or exposure to it in all kinds of different ways. And if you don't like it, you don't buy it, you can stack your own Bitcoin." You can find the full interview for Cointelegraph in the 🧵.

Threadguy predicts this will be the first bull run in crypto history where Bitcoin doesn't participate "This is going to be the first bull run in the history of crypto where Bitcoin flat out does not participate. No role, no say, it will be minimal at best. It will be Bitcoin to $75k, Bitcoin to $80k, Bitcoin to $85k, and there will be mania on-chain." "My entire thesis is that the next cycle comes from new blood getting access to on chain through these apps. This new crowd doesn't even know what Bitcoin is. Anyone that joined because they saw Kimchi or Cented or Rasmr, they don't know what Bitcoin is. If there's a pocket of excitement and new blood in crypto, it will have nothing to do with Bitcoin, the same way Bitcoin had nothing to do with the disaster that on-chain became in 2025. You cannot have it both ways. The two have been separated for years."

BITCOIN RAILS #41 | Bitcoin Native Staking: When Trust Becomes the Bottleneck | with Babylon founder David Tse 🔗 YOUTUBE: 🌿 SPOTIFY: “99% of Bitcoin is held idle, not because of lack of interest, but because of lack of trust.” Not long after Ordinals (and BRC20) revitalized the “Bitcoin DeFi” narrative, Babylon seemingly leapt onto the scene with what felt like overnight success – locking several billion dollars of TVL in its “trustless Bitcoin staking” protocol. With some of the most interesting advisors and contributors in the space (...seriously, what other projects can claim both domo and яobin linus as collaborators?), Babylon quickly became a “BTC-Fi” Goliath – converting both Bitcoin Season 2 types and formerly staunch ETH maxis alike. In this episode, I sit down with creator David Tse to get the protocol's birth story - and learn how POS staking became the first truly trustless Bitcoin DeFi application in the world. In this episode, we cover: - Why smaller POS chains need better security… and how Bitcoin liquidity may be the answer to securing experimental chains in smaller ecosystems - How David’s former experiences in the Cosmos ecosystem informed the core thesis of using Bitcoin to secure smaller chains - A quick breakdown of Babylon’s staking architecture - and what exactly makes it “trustless” - Babylon’s relationship with BitVM, and the team’s lesser-known contributions to both BitVM2 and BitVM3 (Fun Fact: David Tse is яobin linus's PhD advisor at Stanford 🧑‍🎓) - Why Bitcoiners didn’t want to stake their Bitcoin for yield until now... and how the "trustlessness" thesis is already panning out (with 1 whale dropping a whopping 10K Bitcoin in the protocol just a few months back!) Bitcoin Rails is powered by: - Best In Slot (Best in Slot | BRC2.0 🧑‍🍳) — the leading API for Ordinals and BRC-20 data aggregation and indexing. - Spark (Lightspark) — a Statechains implementation advancing Bitcoin-powered payments. - Citrea (Citrea) — the leading Bitcoin rollup technology and BitVM alliance contributor. 📌 Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:38 Bitcoin++ Insights 01:52 David’s Background and Information Theory 05:34 Journey into Bitcoin and Blockchain 07:34 Scaling Bitcoin with Prism Protocol 10:38 Babylon and Cosmos Ecosystem 13:51 Bitcoin Staking and Security Mechanisms 24:49 The Importance of Reputation in Crypto 25:51 Partners and Announcements Break 27:25 Profile of Babylon Stakers 29:17 The Grand Vision for Babylon 32:40 Garbled Circuits and Secret Revelation 44:05 Trustless Bitcoin Vaults and Future Prospects

Matthew Kratter of Bitcoin University on being self sovereign with Bitcoin: "The Michael Saylor followers right now who think that they're somehow Bitcoiners when they own a preferred stock that sits in their brokerage account and can be censored at any time... There's operational risks with that and there's leverage risks. And the actual Bitcoin that secures the assets of the balance sheet of the company is sitting at various custodians." "Having things in centralized places, having Bitcoin IOUs or anything like this is a big mistake." "If you don't know how to move Bitcoin around, if you don't know how to send it on-chain... you're going to be dependent on larger services. And the risk is that those don't even have the Bitcoin that they say that they do."

CJ KONSTANTINOS: "Nothing stops this train. Not even the smartest, best, most rich entrepreneur in the world with political support can stop the train." "If you're not on the Bitcoin train when it comes, you are going to miss one of the biggest moves that we're going to see in Bitcoin." "I think diminishing returns is going to be put to rest. And we are going to see a full-on panic into hard assets that supply cannot be expanded that easily, specifically real estate. And of course, Bitcoin with finite supply, you can't increase the supply at all. And the only way to get the existing supply back onto the market is a higher price." "That dynamic is going to create massive returns for those who are patient in Bitcoin."

Core, ‌the Bitcoin-first ‌chain, and how it’s trying to stretch BTC’s usefulness Core DAO (Core DAO 🔶) brands itself as “The Bitcoin Everything Chain.” The pitch is simple: take Bitcoin’s strengths and push them beyond the usual buy-and-hold story. The protocol centers on one main idea: BTC shouldn’t sit still. Core wants idle Bitcoin to earn, but without giving up the properties people care about most: safety, decentralization, and full self-custody. To get there, Core leans on a mix of Satoshi Plus, timelocks, and a quick Layer 1 EVM chain. Satoshi Plus folds in Delegated Proof of Work (so Bitcoin miners can participate), self-custodial Bitcoin staking, and staking of the $CORE token. Core frames the relationship with Bitcoin as mutualistic. It borrows security and incentive alignment from Bitcoin, then tries to send value back through extra miner rewards, trustless yield opportunities for BTC holders, and infrastructure that makes it easier for Bitcoin products to plug in and scale. Key ways Core aims to expand Bitcoin utility: 1.) Self-custodial Bitcoin staking Lock BTC with timelocks directly on the Bitcoin network (CLTV) and earn CORE yield, no wrapping, no bridges, and no handing custody to anyone else. 2.) Dual staking Stake $BTC and $CORE together to reach higher yield tiers. 3.) Tapping Bitcoin’s hash power Miners can delegate hash power to earn extra CORE rewards, while Core itself is secured using a majority share of Bitcoin’s hash rate. 4.) The “Bitcoin Power Grid” A set of rails Bitcoin products can connect to, built around yield, collateral, payments, and DeFi use cases. 5.) Scalable Bitcoin DeFi An EVM-compatible network designed for faster, cheaper BTCFi apps. 6.) Two-way value flow The goal is to strengthen Bitcoin’s security budget over time, while also turning dormant BTC into something that can actively do work. In plain terms, Core DAO’s broader mission is to make Bitcoin more productive without piling on trust assumptions, converting energy and capital tied up in Bitcoin into yield, DeFi activity, and scalable infrastructure.

"The Bitcoin community happens to be the biggest group of crypto holders in the space. Bitcoin is the biggest digital asset with the most adoption globally. In our opinion, by targeting Bitcoin holders and allowing them to use their Bitcoin in DeFi in the most secure way possible, together with the best DeFi primitives that are in the market — that's the way to get the next billion users onchain." - alexei on the recent Crunching Sats livestream

Matthew Kratter from Bitcoin University explains what happens if Bitcoin doesn't succeed: "The one thing that we definitely want to keep free and and open is is money itself. And to the extent that Bitcoiners hold their own keys, run their own nodes, it gives us hope that the money will not be turned off and captured." "Money is the ultimate form of government control. And so this is one thing that Bitcoin is trying to do is trying to route around fiat money and help to develop a parallel system that is less captured." "The gold standard failed once and gold doesn't give you the same freedom that Bitcoin does."

If Bitcoin keeps going down, will MicroStrategy end up like FTX? Pio and Kaleo discuss the future of MicroStrategy. Pio: "Do you realistically think that $MSTR is going to have to sell 50,000 Bitcoin in the next two years?" Kaleo: "More, and I think it's their best option. They have made it their clear mission that they want to increase net Bitcoin, but what does that necessarily do to create value for $MSTR holders?" "I just think it's reckless right now, the way that $MSTR and the other assets are being advertised... MSTR is amplified Bitcoin... it's just a fancy word for saying it's leveraged." "You can also lose a lot more on the way down... they can't get rid of those dividends unless they buy $STRC back... the obligations accrue; they don't go away." "Look at what happened with FTX. Did anybody think that Bitcoin was going to go back down to 16k?... No. As Bitcoin price goes down, the MSTR compression of their multiple continues to go down."

"For every 10% Bitcoin goes down, your rate goes up 20 basis points. So even if Bitcoin goes to zero, your rate only increases by 2%. And it works the other way too" CJ Konstantinos, founder of Peoples Reserve, on how the self-repaying mortgage rate moves with Bitcoin "So, even if Bitcoin went to zero, it's just like a regular mortgage at that point, because you have no Bitcoin working for you anymore. We don't believe Bitcoin goes to zero, but if it did, that would be the consequence" "For every 10% Bitcoin goes up, we reduce your rate by 0.2%, up to a 33% LTV, a 300% collateral ratio. If your loan is $500,000 and you post $1.5 million of Bitcoin, or your original $500,000 grows into $1.5 million, we reduce your rate by 400 basis points. So if you're basic with an 8% starting rate but you over-collateralize, you get a 4% rate" "We believe over time Bitcoin will do what it was engineered to do and accrue value. Intraday volatility doesn't matter, it's a 30-day window. At the end of every month before your payment is due, we take a snapshot. So if Bitcoin flash crashes and bounces back, no change to your rate, it has to be a consistent drawdown over 30 days, and we reamortize the loan based on the collateral ratio at that time"
