⏳ The 3 Phases of Bitcoin: Why We Are Entering the "Yield Era" ($BANK)
1. Phase 1: Accumulation (2009-2024)
For 15 years, the game was simple: Buy and Hold.
Bitcoin proved itself as "Digital Gold." We saw the rise of hardware wallets, exchanges, and finally, Spot ETFs. The "Store of Value" thesis is won.
2. Phase 2: The Efficiency Crisis (Current)
Now we have a problem. Over $100 Billion sits in US Spot ETFs earning 0%.
In high-finance, an asset that doesn't generate cash flow is inefficient. Institutions are desperate to turn this "dead rock" into a productive asset without selling it.
3. Phase 3: The Yield Era (Lorenzo Protocol)
This is where Lorenzo takes over.
By building the Financial Abstraction Layer (FAL), Lorenzo allows Bitcoin to be used as collateral for Structured Products (OTFs).
The Shift: Bitcoin becomes the base layer for a new financial system where it generates yield from Real World Assets (OpenEden) and Network Security (Babylon).
The Result: Bitcoin evolves from "Gold" (Static) to "Treasury Bonds" (Productive).
Verdict
Lorenzo isn't just a DeFi app; it is the infrastructure for Phase 3.
As the market demands capital efficiency, the protocol that successfully financializes Bitcoin will capture massive value. $BANK is betting on that future.
