Quick summary
Most platforms offer almost no yield on Bitcoin.
Ready is different. We’ve got the strongest offering for Bitcoin holders who want to earn yield and rewards.
With Ready, you can:
• Earn ~3% APY by staking BTC
• Earn ~2% APY by lending BTC with auto-compounding
• Borrow USDC against your BTC without selling it
• Spend globally with the Ready Card and earn 3% cashback
Compared to major exchanges offering <0.5% BTC yield, Ready gives you up to 6× more yield while keeping your Bitcoin working. And, Ready is self-custodial. Your keys, you coins.
Bitcoin is valuable, but most people aren’t making the most of it.
BTC is the largest asset in crypto, yet 98% just sits there, earning nothing.
Across major exchanges and lending platforms, Bitcoin yields typically range between 0% and 0.5% APY.
Here’s how BTC yield compares across platforms vs Ready:

In most cases, BTC is treated as collateral, not a productive asset. Ready changes that.
Earn up to 3.1% staking Bitcoin
Ready lets you stake Bitcoin on Starknet and earn ~3% APY.
Instead of leaving BTC idle, staking allows your Bitcoin to generate yield while maintaining exposure to its price. Plus, you’re contributing to the security of Starknet.
The entire process happens directly inside Ready.
Deposit BTC → Stake your Bitcoin → start earning.
Staking rewards are paid in STRK at the end of each block. You can swap STRK to Bitcoin in the Ready app.
Earn ~2.2% lending Bitcoin with auto-compounding
Ready also enables BTC lending, currently earning ~2% APY.
With the launch of auto-compounding, rewards are automatically reinvested, increasing capital efficiency without manual claiming.
This means:
Your Bitcoin earns → rewards compound → yield grows automatically.
Compared to typical BTC yields across centralized exchanges, this represents up to 6× higher returns.
Unlock liquidity without selling your Bitcoin
Instead of selling your Bitcoin, you can deposit it as collateral and borrow USDC.
This allows you to:
- Access liquidity
- Keep your BTC exposure
- Deploy capital elsewhere
Many users take this a step further.
For example:
- Deposit BTC
- Borrow USDC against it
- Swap USDC back into BTC
For Bitcoin buyers, this can be a capital-efficient way to accumulate more BTC.
