act 2: staking that pays in bitcoin

gm gardeners!

Today’s the day we take Garden staking to the next level: you can now gain Bitcoin by staking SEED on Garden.

btc yield. on Base. live now.

Stakers can now withdraw rewards in cbBTC on Base—a nod to our belief that Base is the ecosystem driving BTCfi adoption. But it doesn’t stop here; this is just the beginning of a roadmap toward native BTC withdrawals.

why is this huge?

Garden staking has given great results during 2024, with average APY of 60%. Now imagine those juicy yields paid in BTC. Offering a more stable, highly sought-after reward like Bitcoin could mean:

  • Attracting a bigger, BTC-loving audience.
  • Boosting visibility and participation.
  • Ensuring SEED’s value as a key player in Bitcoin bridging remains strong.

And here’s the cherry on top: these BTC rewards came straight from you, the community. This feature, from proposal to DAO approval, was shaped by stakers.

coming up

While the staking system lives on Arbitrum for now, we’re planning to migrate it as we grow more cross-chain. Also, we’ve given our staking UI a once over—it’s clean, minimal, and gives you exactly the info you need.

Garden is the fastest Bitcoin bridge for swapping BTC with any asset on EVM and Solana chains in as little as 30 seconds. It is decentralized, trustless, audited, and not a real garden.
