Maestro has announced support for Liquidium by providing infrastructure for lending and borrowing on the Bitcoin network. These new technologies promise to accelerate the loan acquisition process and expand decentralized finance functionalities.
Collaboration Between Maestro and Liquidium
Maestro, a leading BitcoinFi infrastructure provider, announced its support for Liquidium by offering resilient indexing and real-time solutions. This collaboration allows Liquidium to implement lending protocols directly on the Bitcoin base layer.
LiquidiumWTF, Liquidium's flagship protocol, has recorded over 4,230 BTC (approximately $500 million) in loans issued against collateral such as Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20.
Innovative Solutions from Liquidium
Liquidium is actively utilizing the capabilities provided by Maestro to implement new features. For instance, it recently launched Instant Loans, enabling users to borrow BTC using Ordinals or Runes as collateral via lender-funded vaults on Layer 1. The second initiative, LiquidiumFi, is now rolling out Cross-Chain Loans, allowing users to lock native BTC on one chain and borrow stablecoins like USDT on another.
The Future of Lending on Bitcoin
According to Marvin Bertin, co-founder and CEO of Maestro, the core goal of their collaboration is to elevate Bitcoin in terms of capitalization. "The vast majority of Bitcoin is still sitting idle in wallets. Liquidium is bringing real capital efficiency without compromising decentralization. At Maestro, we are proud to support Liquidium and contribute to the advancement of DeFi on native Bitcoin," he noted.
The collaboration between Maestro and Liquidium demonstrates significant progress in decentralized finance. The emergence of new protocols and services unlocks new opportunities for Bitcoin users in lending and borrowing.
