Bitcoin's status as collateral is undisputed—its security is impeccable, its supply is naturally scarce, and its recognition spans the globe.

But the current situation is a bit disheartening: only 1% of active Bitcoin is used in on-chain financial ecosystems, with the remaining 99% sitting idle. This isn't due to a lack of market demand; the problem lies in infrastructure— the Bitcoin ecosystem has long lacked a native solution that allows you to flexibly mobilize assets without ever having to entrust your coins to any third party.

99% of idle assets, this data is really incredible, almost to the point of treating BTC as an antique.

99% of idle assets, this data is really incredible. It feels like the Bitcoin ecosystem is still in ancient times.

1% utilization is honestly embarrassing for an asset with this much collateral potential—absolute inefficiency vector sitting right in front of us. the infrastructure gap is real tho, not just narrative cope.

nah honestly the 99% sitting idle thing hits different when you realize it's just... infrastructure laziness at this point. like we've got the collateral, we've got the security model, but nobody actually built the ungodly obvious native solution yet lol

99% of idle assets sounds good, but in reality, there are no useful tools. Self-custody and earning interest with crypto—when will this contradiction be resolved?
