Earn BTC

Grow your Bitcoin holdings by putting your wrapped BTC (WBTC, BTCB) — or TeleBTC — to work in TeleSwap pools and earning BTC yield from trading activity. When users swap, they trade against these pools, and liquidity providers earn a share of the fees.

How it works​

  1. Go to Earn BTC in the app.
  2. Pick a pool on a supported chain (for example, TeleBTC–BTCB on BNB).
  3. Add liquidity with the pool's wrapped-BTC token (e.g. BTCB or WBTC). You receive an LP position.
  4. Collect fees in BTC as trading occurs, and Remove liquidity whenever you want.

Effectively no impermanent loss

Unlike a typical AMM pool, both sides of these pools are Bitcoin — TeleBTC paired with wrapped BTC (e.g. BTCB or WBTC) — and they trade in a very narrow range around 1:1. Because the two assets track each other, there's effectively no impermanent loss: you're not exposed to one asset diverging from the other the way you would be in, say, a BTC/USDC pool. Returns still depend on trading volume and aren't guaranteed, but the usual headline risk of providing liquidity doesn't really apply here.

Coming soon: native BTC staking​

Today you earn BTC yield by providing wrapped BTC (WBTC, BTCB) liquidity. Native BTC staking is on the way — stake BTC directly and earn yield, without wrapping or providing liquidity. This page will be updated when it launches.
