Lombard Finance is tackling a classic problem: how do you put your Bitcoin to work without giving up actual BTC exposure? Their answer comes in two flavors—LBTC (Liquid Bitcoin) and BTC.b. Both let holders use their coins as collateral across DeFi protocols. Think yield stacking, lending pools, borrowing against your position—all while your underlying asset stays Bitcoin.
What's coming down the pipeline? They're pushing deeper into perpetual futures integrations. That means more venues where users can leverage their liquid BTC positions for derivatives trading, opening up hedging strategies and speculative plays without unwinding the base collateral.

Yet another "make your coins earn money" scheme. Sounds good, but I'm still a bit hesitant... The logic behind LBTC's liquidity staking is indeed clever, but perpetual contract integration? Doesn't that just open up another door to risk... Forget it, I still need to do some more research.

The liquid Bitcoin part is indeed interesting, but I'm worried that if Lombard has problems, the entire ecosystem could collapse along with it.

I've seen this trick too many times—it's just another "earn yields without selling your coins" story. To put it bluntly, it's leverage in disguise.

Damn, someone finally figured out BTC liquidity. You can earn yields without selling your coins—this is the kind of play I want.

NGL, this logic allows BTC to earn passively without losing exposure. Sounds pretty smooth.
