BIMA DeFi Ecosystem Enables Bitcoin Holders to Access Institution-Grade Yield Strategies Without Selling their BTC
Dover, DE, July 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BIMA, the newly launched DeFi ecosystem focused on Bitcoin-backed stablecoins and yield strategies, today announced a partnership with Bracket, a DeFi strategy platform backed by Binance Labs. The partnership will power a new suite of “real-yield” vaults for USBD, Bima’s Bitcoin-backed stablecoin.
Through this integration, Bima users will gain seamless access to actively managed, on-chain yield strategies without leaving the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bracket’s secure, policy-controlled vault infrastructure will serve as the backend layer for these vaults, enabling Bima to focus on growing USBD liquidity and expanding utility across chains.
USBD is a capital-efficient stablecoin over-collateralized by Bitcoin derivatives. Unlike traditional stablecoins like USDC or USDT, USBD is inherently crypto-native and supports multiple yield strategies, offering investors flexibility in balancing risk and return. Users can deposit Bitcoin or stake BTC to receive liquid staking tokens (LSTs) that back USBD issuance.
Bracket’s infrastructure powers scalable, secure yield vaults through smart contracts, policy-managed wallets, third-party verified NAV reporting, and institutional-grade accounting. The platform bridges top-tier funds and on-chain capital using assets like ETH, BTC, and stablecoins.

The partnership combines Bima’s Bitcoin-native stablecoin architecture with Bracket’s proven infrastructure, bringing powerful real-yield options to USBD holders and setting a new standard for scalable, decentralized investment products.
The announcement follows BIMA’s recent mainnet launch, which opened the door for both institutional and retail investors to tap into institution-grade yield strategies, all without selling their BTC. As a U.S.-based company that has recently entered the market with a fully operational platform, BIMA’s recent mainnet launch delivers a comprehensive security infrastructure featuring over-collateralization safeguards and a stability pool that efficiently resolves under-collateralized positions. The platform integrates with major wallets, including Ledger, MetaMask, and XVerse, allowing users to start minting USBD through a straightforward five-step process.
