Earlier today, SOFA.org announced a strategic partnership with Merlin Chain, an innovative Layer 2 scaling solution for Bitcoin. This partnership marks a pivotal moment for SOFA.org as it joins a major player known for enabling Bitcoin holders to access a variety of protocols and return-generating opportunities.
The integration with Merlin Chain is poised to increase the usability of the mBTC token by including it in SOFA.org’s smart contract vaults, expanding the spectrum of investment products available to users.
Merlin Chain’s decision to deploy its mBTC holdings in SOFA’s smart contract vaults reflects a shared vision of expanding its returns strategy to crypto options and structured products.
This initiative not only aims to benefit mBTC holders by providing new money-making opportunities, but also demonstrates Merlin Chain’s commitment to leveraging SOFA’s advanced security features and extensive ecosystem.

This partnership underlines an important step forward in bridging the gap between Bitcoin and decentralized finance, improving the functionality and reach of both platforms.
Improving return strategies and broadening integration
As part of the partnership, SOFA.org will also collaborate with Cicada Finance, a critical integration partner focused on embedding yield-generating properties into BTC. This development introduces Cicada’s ‘Yield As A Service’ product to SOFA users, expanding the ways in which
holders can generate income from their holdings.
This layered approach to improving return opportunities is indicative of the evolving nature of DeFi solutions, where integration and collaboration between platforms lead to greater value for users.
The partnership is a testament to SOFA.org’s ability to seamlessly integrate between centralized and decentralized financial channels. By encompassing various stakeholders such as exchanges, custodians, protocols, funds and market makers, SOFA.org positions itself as a versatile and robust settlement layer for all assets in the chain.
This connectivity not only increases the usability of the platform, but also strengthens its position in the market by providing a comprehensive solution that meets the diverse needs of the crypto community.
