Where can I earn yield on Bitcoin?
Short answer
41 Bitcoin markets, vaults and staking tokens in our data state a yield. The highest right now is StackingDAO — STSTXBTC liquid staking on Stacks at 7.8% (variable, DefiLlama 2026-10-19). The range runs from 0.01% (Tydro — KBTC lending on Ink) to 7.80%. Yields are variable and not guaranteed.
Bitcoin itself pays nothing. Yield on BTC comes from lending a wrapped version (WBTC, cbBTC) to borrowers, from vaults that run a strategy with it, or from Bitcoin staking tokens such as LBTC that secure other networks. Each adds a layer — a custodian for the wrapper, a protocol, sometimes a bridge — on top of the price risk.

How to choose
BTC lending rates are low because few people borrow Bitcoin; anything far above them is paid for with reward tokens or extra risk. Know who holds the real bitcoin behind the wrapper before you deposit it.
