What is Lorenzo Protocol?

Lorenzo Protocol operates as a Bitcoin liquidity finance layer, creating an efficient market for Bitcoin holders to invest their unused liquidity. It tokenizes staked Bitcoin into Liquid Principal Tokens (LPTs) and Yield Accruing Tokens (YATs) to incentivize staking, while also offering products like the BTC Liquid Staking Token (stBTC) and wrapped BTC (enzoBTC). 

The platform consists of a Cosmos appchain – built with Cosmos Ethermint, a relayer system to synchronize Bitcoin’s Layer 1 with the Lorenzo appchain, which issues and settles Bitcoin liquid restaking tokens. BANK serves as the native governance token for Lorenzo Protocol and holders can stake it to receive veBANK rewards and participate in governance. 

The launch of the BANKUSDT perpetual contract marks a significant milestone for Lorenzo Protocol as it will likely increase the token’s exposure within the crypto ecosystem.

As the protocol continues to develop its Bitcoin liquidity finance solutions, the crypto community will be watching closely to see how this listing impacts BANK’s adoption and market performance.
