Lombard is proud to be Stable's Bitcoin partner, establishing BTC.b as the canonical BTC on the network, and bringing a next-generation BTC asset to an institutional-grade blockchain built for stablecoins.

Today marks the mainnet launch of Stable, and with it, a new paradigm in blockchain design: rails built natively for stablecoins. Stable is a Layer 1 blockchain that raised $28 million from Bitfinex, Franklin Templeton, and other leading institutions, and attracted over $2 billion in deposits from 24,000+ verified wallets during its Pre-Deposit Campaign.

Stable chose Lombard as their sole Bitcoin asset issuer. At launch, Stable is one of the cheapest place to borrow USDT0 against BTC on Morpho—and Lombard with BTC.b provides the only way to access it.

"Bitcoin and stablecoins form the base assets of onchain finance, and Lombard is proud to provide the canonical BTC asset for Stable's ecosystem" said Jacob Phillips, Co-Founder of Lombard. "Bitcoin serves as the foundation for value, the hardest, most secure digital asset for preserving and creating wealth. Stablecoins provide the unit of account, programmable money for transactions, settlements, and economic activity. This partnership represents the infrastructure convergence that the digital economy requires: Bitcoin's value foundation meeting stablecoin-native settlement rails."

Stable: A Settlement Layer Built for Stablecoins

Stablecoins have already proven their demand, settling trillions of dollars each year. But existing blockchains treat them as secondary assets. Stable changes that. Stable is a settlement layer where stablecoins move with the reliability of payment networks and the programmability of blockchains. Every transfer, payout, and transaction settles in USDT with predictable costs and instant finality.

Lombard: Native BTC on Stable

Stable chose Lombard as their exclusive Bitcoin partner, making BTC.b the canonical Bitcoin for the Stable ecosystem. When you interact with BTC on Stable, you're using BTC.b under the hood, but it will often appear simply as "BTC" within the ecosystem, a critical UX improvement in BTC DeFi that is unique to chains with a canonical BTC asset. Learn more about Lombard's recent acquisition of BTC.b from Ava Labs.

At launch, BTC.b is available to natively mint, bridge via Stargate, and swap via Stable’s swap interface (https://swap.stable.xyz/).

One of The Cheapest Place to Borrow Against Bitcoin

This exclusive partnership combines Bitcoin's value as prime collateral with deep BTC and stablecoin liquidity and performant DeFi protocols. The result: at mainnet launch today, Stable is one of the cheapest place to borrow USDT0 against Bitcoin.

Stable launches with significant stablecoin liquidity deployed into Morpho and Stable's swap interface, creating opportunities for Bitcoin holders to borrow stablecoins cheaply and at scale. This is supported by the predictable costs and instant finality of Stable's architecture to kickstart a flywheel for the chain.

Getting Started is Simple:

1. Visit the Lombard App
2. Deposit BTC and mint BTC.b to Stable
3. Your BTC.b appears as "BTC" on Stable
4. Deploy on Morpho

BTC collateral on Morpho [live on December 9th] unlocks a straightforward, scalable looping strategy that leverages Stable's predictable infrastructure. The trade is simple: mint BTC.b, borrow USDT0 on Morpho, repeat.

21-Day Launch Campaign: 4x Lux Points

For the first 21 days following mainnet launch (December 8, 1:00 PM UTC / 8:00 AM ET), BTC.b deployed as collateral on Morpho earns amplified rewards:

Campaign Badge Points:

• 9,000 LUX per BTC.b per day (badge bonus)
• Plus 1,000 LUX per BTC.b per day (standard rate)
• Total: 10,000 LUX per BTC.b daily—4x more than anywhere else

This 21-day window represents a significant opportunity to maximize both yield and points accumulation.

Why This Launch Matters

As Stable's exclusive Bitcoin partner, Lombard is the only gateway to access BTC on a blockchain purpose-built for stablecoin borrowing, payments and settlement. For users seeking yield, leverage, or capital efficiency, this launch provides predictable costs, instant finality, and the deepest liquidity for Bitcoin-backed stablecoin borrowing.
