Project Introduction:
Zest Protocol is the largest Bitcoin lending protocol, built by the longest-running BTCFi team in existence and backed by tier-1 investors: Tim Draper, CZ's Yzi Labs, and Muneeb (Stacks Founder).
Zest Protocol is the most successful and technically advanced Bitcoin-focused lending protocol, with around $100M TVL, 800+ BTC deposited, institutional LPs actively using the platform, and 1,500+ liquidations with zero bad debt. No other BTCFi team has this track record.
Now Zest Protocol is building a revolutionary lending market on Bitcoin L1. Users lock BTC directly on the base layer and borrow stablecoins on EVM chains. No wrapping, bridging, or custodians — the BTC stays on L1
