About maxBTC

maxBTC is liquid, yield-bearing Bitcoin that offers sustainable returns to its holders through proven BTC-denominated strategies.Key features:
  • Real BTC Yield: Attractive BTC-denominated yield from a portfolio of tested strategies, not emissions
  • LST-like Form Factor: Composable design that enables holders to leverage their BTC through DeFi integrations
  • Liquid: Withdraw anytime or trade via DEXs with minimal slippage
  • Transparent and Secure: Clear strategy mechanics and risk metrics
  • Scalable: Supports multiple strategies without manual capital rotation
maxBTC delivers real BTC yield from proven strategies, not emissions. It is liquid and composable for DeFi, scales across multiple strategies without fragmenting liquidity, and offers transparent mechanics with risk controls.
Real yield refers to returns that are generated from actual, sustainable sources (like trading fees) rather than from inflationary token emissions, points systems, or other artificial incentives.
maxBTC generates yield through tested on- and off-chain strategies. The initial strategy underlying maxBTC is based on the Jupiter Liquidity Provider (JLP) pool, which backs leveraged positions on Jupiter Perps and earns fees from trader activity.Learn more: JLP BTC Neutral Strategy
maxBTC is designed for horizontal scaling. It keeps all liquidity unified in one token while distributing risk and yield across multiple strategies. New strategies can be added without fragmenting liquidity or requiring new tokens.The minting contract coordinates multiple vaults through a single entry point. Deposits flow into the selected strategy, and all performance aggregates back into maxBTC. This ensures one liquid market and unified DEX liquidity.Learn more: Horizontal Scaling
KYC is required to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) laws and regulations. Because minting and redeeming involve direct interaction with Structured’s vaults, verification protects both participants and the protocol by ensuring assets are not used for illicit purposes. Individuals can complete KYC through zkMe with ID and proof of address, while entities can onboard through manual verification with the Structured team.

Strategy & Risk

It is the first underlying strategy of maxBTC. Capital is allocated into the Jupiter JLP pool while short positions in SOL and ETH hedge non-BTC exposure. It preserves 1× BTC exposure and converts trading activity into BTC-denominated yield.Learn more: JLP BTC Neutral Strategy
Fee types:
  • Opening and closing fees on trades
  • Borrowing fees paid by leveraged traders
  • Protocol trading fees
  • Liquidation fees
The strategy allocates capital across two legs: approximately 70% to JLP and 30% as collateral on Ceffu, an institutional custody platform, for hedging on Binance perpetuals. The JLP side earns fees from trader activity, while the hedge neutralizes non-BTC exposure. Positions are rebalanced continuously to track pool composition and trader positioning, converting trading activity into BTC-denominated yield.
The JLP BTC Neutral strategy targets 5–10% BTC-denominated APY, based on historical performance and capacity scaling.
APY and performance figures are based on historical data and are provided for informational purposes only.
Risks include smart contract risk, liquidation risk, exchange risk, funding rate risk, and liquidity and withdrawal risk.Learn more: Risk & Controls
Liquidation would require a BTC price drop of around 45% relative to SOL or ETH before rebalancing. Historically, BTC’s largest weekly decline since 2019 has been 33.52%, below this threshold.
The liquidity pool can support withdrawals in the hundreds of millions of USD with ~0.3% slippage. Larger withdrawals may require scheduling or fees to manage slippage
Deposits are split between on-chain allocation, which is transparent and verifiable, and off-exchange custody with institutional providers. Funds are only moved to exchanges when required for strategy execution, minimizing counterparty risk.
Underlying funds are protected by limiting exchange exposure to only the unsettled balance from a 24-hour settlement cycle. In practice this balance is held in BTC, representing the net PnL of BTC, SOL, and ETH over the last 24 hours.About 30% of capital is allocated as collateral for hedging. The full 30% sits on exchange through a custodian, but during a given day 2-4% may remain unsettled. This caps potential exposure if an exchange were to fail before settlement.

maxBTC vaults on Neutron

Neutron is a public PoS blockchain that enables BTC holders to earn sustainable yield through an expanding suite of products and services. Yield opportunities on Neutron are enabled by Neutron’s built-in infrastructure, which includes its high-frequency oracle, cron module, on-chain orderbook, and more.
Structured is opening up access to maxBTC together with Neutron as part of Phase 1 of the Bitcoin Summer campaign. This phase introduces two dedicated vaults that allow participants to mint maxBTC, establish its first trading liquidity on-chain, and prepare it for advanced use cases ahead of the full protocol launch.
Bitcoin Summer is a multi-phase campaign that enables BTC holders to earn real BTC yield. Neutron has partnered with several projects to realize this vision, and Structured is participating in Phase 1 with the launch of two maxBTC vaults.Participants can deposit into a Bitcoin Summer vault or eligible position on Neutron to earn BTC-denominated yield along with additional rewards.Learn more about Bitcoin Summer and the Bitcoin Summer rewards system.
Two maxBTC vaults are open for deposits on Neutron. Each vault accepts WBTC, wrapped Bitcoin on Ethereum, which connects directly to Structured’s minting contracts. Deposits in both vaults are capped at 500 BTC, with deployment to maxBTC’s underlying strategy (JLP BTC Neutral) triggered once the cap is reached.
  • Minting Vault: Straightforward exposure to maxBTC. Deposits queue until the cap is reached (or end of September), then are deployed into the JLP BTC Neutral strategy.
  • Liquidity Vault: Converts deposits into maxBTC and allocates them to the maxBTC/WBTC Supervault on Neutron’s orderbook DEX. Depositors earn both strategy yield and market-making fees.
