TL;DR: Lorenzo Protocol has partnered with NAVI Protocol to launch the stBTC NAVI Pool, bringing BTC liquidity into the Move ecosystem’s largest lending platform. This new pool will allow stBTC holders to earn yields from multiple yield sources, improve capital efficiency by using stBTC as collateral, and introduce BTC assets to the expanding Sui DeFi ecosystem.

We’re thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between Lorenzo Protocol and NAVI Protocol, marking a major advancement for stBTC liquidity in the Move ecosystem with the launch of the stBTC NAVI Pool.

This milestone partnership underscores Lorenzo’s commitment to MoveVM expansion, positioning Lorenzo as the first omnichain Bitcoin liquid staking and yield infrastructure layer to support MoveVM. Our goal is to introduce BTC liquidity and re-staking solutions across this evolving ecosystem!

Through this initiative, BTC liquidity will flow into NAVI Protocol, the largest lending and LSTDeFi platform within the Move ecosystem. As one of the fastest-growing DeFi protocols on the Sui network, NAVI Protocol’s total value locked (TVL) is projected to exceed $1 billion, accounting for an impressive 40% of Sui’s total TVL. As the most comprehensive and accessible liquidity protocol on Sui, NAVI is dedicated to bringing the BTC ecosystem into Sui. Supported by NAVI’s advanced smart contracts, this collaboration will offer stBTC holders a robust liquidity solution and the opportunity to earn higher yields.

Introducing stBTC on the Move Ecosystem’s Largest Lending Platform

Lorenzo’s stBTC NAVI Pool will bring BTC liquidity to NAVI Protocol, a comprehensive liquidity platform on Sui that allows users to participate as liquidity providers or borrowers across the Sui ecosystem. With innovative features like Automatic Leverage Vaults and Isolation Mode, NAVI enables users to leverage their assets and access new trading opportunities with minimized risks, strengthening its role as a foundational DeFi infrastructure in the rapidly evolving Sui ecosystem.

NAVI’s robust and highly regarded smart contracts will support the stBTC liquidity pool, enhancing the yield potential for stBTC holders.

Key benefits of this collaboration include:

Increasing User Yield Opportunities

By providing stBTC liquidity, users can access diverse yield streams on NAVI Protocol. This structure gives stBTC holders a chance to achieve higher capital returns while maintaining liquidity through the lending protocol.

Enhancing Capital Efficiency

stBTC holders on NAVI Protocol will be able to use stBTC as collateral for lending, improving capital utilization efficiency and enabling optimized asset allocation. This approach allows users to benefit from the full-chain native yield of stBTC while making more effective use of their assets.

Expanding BTC’s Role In The Sui DeFi Ecosystem

Borrowing against stBTC on NAVI Protocol will introduce BTC assets into the broader Sui DeFi ecosystem, offering users access to a network of applications that support BTC and opening up new yield opportunities for holders.

Launching the stBTC NAVI Pool is a major step in enhancing BTC liquidity within the Move ecosystem. Together, Lorenzo Protocol and NAVI Protocol will provide stBTC holders with a reliable platform for lending and earning, while expanding BTC’s role within Sui’s DeFi landscape. We look forward to seeing how this integration drives user yield opportunities, capital efficiency, and fresh applications for BTC across the ecosystem!
