Solv will deploy the BTC raised to various yield-generating vehicles, such as liquid staking tokens, and invested across decentralized finance (DeFi), real-world assets (RWAs) and institutional finance products.

"What this means is that Solv's protocol-owned Bitcoin Reserve will be active and productive, rather than having the BTC sitting idle," Solv said in Thursday's announcement.
