GlobalStake rolls out bitcoin yield gateway as institutions revisit BTC yield

CoinDesk
GlobalStake launched a Bitcoin Yield Gateway as institutions seek traditional finance-like yield opportunities for their BTC holdings.

Summary

GlobalStake has launched a Bitcoin Yield Gateway to meet growing institutional demand for BTC yield products that mirror traditional finance (TradFi) strategies. According to co-founder Thomas Chaffee, institutions are no longer seeking high-risk yield but rather collateralized, market-neutral approaches. Years of skepticism surrounding smart contract risk and opaque strategies have shifted as institutions now desire yield opportunities that resemble familiar financial instruments. The company anticipates allocating approximately $500 million in bitcoin through the gateway within the first quarter, sourced from various clients including family offices and corporate treasuries. Other firms, like Babylon Labs, are also working to expand Bitcoin’s utility by enabling its use as collateral.
