Castle Labs report: Bitcoin's on-chain finance analysis. Despite $1.3T market cap, only 1.5% BTC actively generates yield, unlike Ethereum (32.5% staked).
Bitcoin relies on wrapped assets/L2s/DeFi for yield, but these bring trust risks (custodians, bridges, smart contracts).
Initiatives like Stacks are developing native Bitcoin financial solutions (self-custodial staking, PoX-5) to reduce trust assumptions, enabling yield directly on-chain.
Bitcoin DeFi TVL is $5.2B, far below its ecosystem's reserve asset scale.
