💡 Spotlight: Fluid Tokens on Bitcoin
We are excited to introduce Fluid Tokens, a groundbreaking DeFi ecosystem built directly on Bitcoin's Layer 1 that's revolutionizing how users interact with their digital assets. In this spotlight, we'll explore how Fluid Tokens is expanding Bitcoin's capabilities through innovative technology and user-friendly solutions.
History of Fluid Tokens
Fluid Tokens' journey began on the Cardano blockchain, where they first developed their expertise in UTxO-based systems. The team established themselves as innovators in the Cardano ecosystem, launching multiple successful DeFi protocols including P2P lending, NFT renting services, and liquidity pools. This deep experience with Cardano's UTxO model proved invaluable when they expanded to Bitcoin, as it helped them understand how to leverage UTxO determinism effectively. Building on this foundation, they developed BitWeave, their breakthrough technology that enables additional programability on Bitcoin L1.
Key Features
BitWeave Technology: At the heart of Fluid Tokens lies BitWeave, their proprietary technology that leverages UTxO determinism to implement programability on Bitcoin's base layer. This breakthrough enables truly permissionless DeFi applications without compromising Bitcoin's security.
Orderbook DEX: Fluid Tokens has created the first fully permissionless exchange on Bitcoin Layer 1. The DEX features:
Limit orders with soft commitments, allowing users to set specific price points for trades
Market orders that execute against the best available prices
Partial fill capability for flexible trading
A secure two-signature system ensuring trustless swaps
Peer-to-Pool Lending: Their innovative lending protocol allows users to:
Create customized liquidity pools supporting various collateral types (Ordinals, Runes, BRC20)
Borrow against their digital assets with user-defined terms
Participate in lending activities with automatic best-deal matching
Maintain full control of their assets through non-custodial operations

They have expanded their offerings through a strategic collaboration with Arch, introducing sophisticated lending features for Runes including customizable Loan-to-Value ratios, Price Oracles, and automated liquidation mechanisms - all running directly on Bitcoin's base layer.
Fluid Tokens has established itself as the leading platform for permissionless Runes staking on Bitcoin L1, demonstrating their commitment to expanding DeFi capabilities on Bitcoin. They are at the forefront of Bitcoin's emerging DeFi ecosystem.
