Dover, DE, April 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BIMA (https://bima.money/), a decentralized finance ecosystem, is excited to announce the launch of its mainnet. This platform allows both professional and retail investors globally to access permissionless institution-grade yield strategies without the need to liquidate their Bitcoin holdings. Introducing USBD, a stablecoin that is capital-efficient and over-collateralized with Bitcoin derivatives, BIMA provides investors with innovative options to generate yield while keeping their BTC investments intact.
“The launch of our mainnet today marks a significant milestone in our endeavor to provide an improved solution for Bitcoin holders,” stated Sid Sridhar, founder and CEO of BIMA. “Our platform is now live and available for all users, enabling BTC holders to borrow at interest rates as low as 1-2% while achieving yields of 12% or more – effectively tackling the inefficiencies of conventional lending markets where borrowing costs typically surpass returns.”
With the mainnet now active, investors can seamlessly engage with BIMA’s ecosystem of vault strategies, each offering diverse risk-reward profiles. These strategies encompass delta-neutral options yielding between 15-20% APY to higher-volatility alternatives that can potentially generate between 30-60% APY. Users have the flexibility to either deposit Bitcoin directly or stake their BTC to receive liquid-staking derivatives (LSTs), which can then be deployed into vaults to mint USBD at a minimum collateralization ratio of 150%.
As a U.S.-based company entering the space with a fully functional platform, BIMA’s mainnet launch is backed by a robust security infrastructure that features over-collateralization protections and a stability pool designed to effectively manage under-collateralized positions. The platform is compatible with major wallets including Ledger, MetaMask, and XVerse, allowing users to begin minting USBD through a simple five-step process.
