Hermetica Unveils hBTC: Self-Custodial Bitcoin Yield Vault on Stacks
New York-based Hermetica has launched hBTC, a self-custodial Bitcoin yield vault built on Stacks. This innovative product earns yield from Strategy's $STRC and Stacks' Dual Staking.
hBTC is designed for institutional allocators, providing full transparency and self-custody. The launch comes after Michael Saylor reposted Hermetica's yield announcement for USDh, underscoring the growing institutional appetite for productive Bitcoin capital.
A significant 25 BTC has already been committed to hBTC's initial cohort, earning daily returns through Strategy-linked exposure and Stacks Dual Staking.
Hermetica Founder & CEO Jakob Schillinger said: 'Bitcoin is institutional, but BTC income still has a missing-middle problem. Until now, the choice has been between custody-only exposure and yield strategies that lack transparency.'
