Hashi launches on the Sui blockchain to bring Bitcoin lending, yield, and DeFi services with support from BitGo, Bullish, and FalconX institutions.
A new finance protocol called Hashi plans to bring Bitcoin into decentralized finance. The project is being built on the Sui blockchain. Developers say that the idea is to allow Bitcoin holders to earn yield. Several large crypto institutions have already promised early participation.
Hashi Plans to Unlock Bitcoin Lending and Yield Markets
Hashi will enable people to lend, borrow, and earn rewards with Bitcoin. The team said the value of Bitcoin has a market value of more than $1 trillion. However, less than half of 1% of Bitcoin is used in decentralized finance today. Therefore, the project is interested in unlocking this unused liquidity.
Introducing Hashi: a new era of Bitcoin finance on Sui.
Bitcoin’s market cap exceeds $1 trillion. < 0.5% of it is used in DeFi.

The protocol is first being launched on a test network. After which, developers are planning a full launch later this year. Institutions including BitGo, Bullish, FalconX, Erebor Bank, Ledger, and Fordefi agreed to support the system. Such firms might provide Bitcoin or stablecoins for lending.

At the time of launch, lending will be the primary feature. Users will be able to borrow stablecoins by using Bitcoin as collateral. The system will be able to move assets across blockchains automatically. Because of this, Bitcoin users can use with no selling of their holdings.
The project also focuses on institutional investors. Clients of custody companies such as BitGo and Ledger can participate on the platform. Self-custody users will also receive access. This design is intended to link with large investors and connect them to decentralized finance tools.
The system will remain transparent and regulated, the developers said. Users will see interest rates, collateral value, and borrower health in real-time. This feature is important for institutions that need clear risk controls.
Institutions, Insurance, and Bonds Planned for Hashi Platform
Large trading company FalconX and digital asset trading platform Bullish agreed to participate in the launch. Erebor Bank is also planning to assist with deposits and withdrawals. Stablecoins will be important in credit creation on the platform.
Hashi will also use the price data from CF Benchmarks. This company offers index data for many crypto markets. Oracle networks will transfer this data to the blockchain. Due to this reason, lending prices can remain accurate and verifiable.
Security is the other focus of the project. Insurance provider Soter Insure plans to protect Bitcoin used as collateral. The policy will include risks such as theft or loss. Payments and claims will occur in Bitcoin according to the asset value.
Investment firm Wave Digital also revealed plans. The company would like to issue bonds backed up by Bitcoin using Hashi. These bonds may help institutions raise money faster. It may also enable instant trading and settlement in the design.
A number of Sui blockchain apps will be available for Hashi from the first day. AlphaLend, Navi, Scallop, and Suilend intend to link their services. Users will associate Bitcoin and Sui addresses to ensure that transactions are kept transparent.
Mysten Labs co-founder, Adeniyi Abiodun, said Hashi can unlock trillions in Bitcoin liquidity. He added that new financial services will be built on top of the system by developers. The launch could demonstrate how Bitcoin can function within the contemporary DeFi markets.
