Market Challenge

Bitcoin, the original decentralized cryptocurrency, was designed with simplicity, security, and decentralization at its core. Its scripting language and architecture focus on peer-to-peer value transfer, not complex financial logic. As a result, while Bitcoin has become the most secure and widely recognized digital asset, it remains largely disconnected from the rapidly expanding DeFi landscape.

Meanwhile, blockchains like Ethereum have evolved with smart contract functionality and modular design to support lending, borrowing, staking, and more. These features have made them fertile ground for DeFi, leaving Bitcoin holders with limited options for putting their assets to work—unless they sell or wrap their BTC to use on another chain.

Bitcoin's architectural trade-offs—emphasizing decentralization and security over scalability—have made direct DeFi integration challenging. And although layer 2 solutions such as Lightning or sidechains offer partial improvements, they often come with compromises in user experience, composability, and liquidity depth.

Unlocking RWA Yield for Bitcoin Holders

Yala is a Bitcoin-native liquidity protocol that bridges this gap.

It enables BTC holders to access real yield across DeFi and RWAs - all without giving up custody of their Bitcoin. Through Yala’s secure and modular infrastructure, users can deposit BTC and mint $YU, a Bitcoin-backed stablecoin, which serves as a gateway to cross-chain liquidity and yield.

With Yala, users can:

  • Seamlessly deposit BTC and mint $YU through an overcollateralized, permissionless mechanism.

  • Use $YU across EVM and non-EVM chains in DeFi yield strategies like lending, staking, and AMM liquidity provision.

  • Access real-world yield opportunities via integrated RWA partners like tokenized real estate or credit markets.

  • Participate in native BTC yield via liquid staking options—turning idle BTC into a productive, on-chain asset.

Yala’s Mission

Yala’s mission is to unlock the world’s most underutilized asset—Bitcoin—by transforming it into a foundation for global on-chain liquidity. Through a design that is:

  • Secure: Built on trust-minimized infrastructure, anchored in Bitcoin’s core values.

  • Composable: Integrates across major blockchain ecosystems and RWA networks.

  • Capital-Efficient: Enables dual-yield strategies through $YU and BTC-native staking layers.

  • Decentralized: Governed by its community, built to evolve transparently.
