In the crypto world, what truly determines victory is never code, but the interplay between liquidity, power, and regulation. The rise and fall of BUSD is not merely a tragic tale of a stablecoin, but a financial war waged by exchanges attempting to "unify the world."

When BUSD was thrust onto the historical stage, it carried not only a compliance narrative, but also Binance's ambition to reshape the stablecoin order through coercive measures—by manipulating exchange rates and merging trading pairs, directly swallowing competitors' liquidity into its own ledger.

The "automatic conversion" of 2022 was a textbook example of a blitzkrieg; and 2023...

The Rise and Fall of Binance's Dominance: From BUSD's "Unification" to $U's "Conquering the World"—The Stablecoin Wars

Bitcoin's closing price in 2025 is expected to be roughly the same as the level at the beginning of the year.
The cryptocurrency market experienced a genuine bullish wave in the first ten months of this year. Regulatory reforms continued to advance, ETFs continued to attract funds, and on-chain activity became increasingly active. Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $126,080 on October 6th.
However, the market failed to deliver the expected breakthrough after the initial frenzy; instead, it experienced rotation, repricing, and rebalancing. This was driven by factors such as unmet macroeconomic expectations, a shift in investment narratives, leveraged margin calls, and massive...

No matter how rough the market gets, $BTC remains steady.
While altcoins fluctuate at the bottom, $BTC quietly proves it's the only crypto asset accepted globally.
At this point, keeping 30% of your portfolio in Bitcoin isn’t a bold idea—it just looks like baseline risk 

But most people still don't know how $BTC can generate additional income.
They hold it in cold wallets/CEX — not realizing that $BTC can be put to work.
Today, I’ll walk you through a way to farm with $BTC:
- the $nBTC - $NEAR pool on @rhea_finance. https://twitter.com/1370594513857691648/status/1913169756099596678

Rhea Finance is a community-led, multi-purpose DeFi platform built on the @NEARProtocol.
Originally launched as Ref Finance by Illia Polosukhin (co-founder of NEAR), its first GitHub commit was back in March 2021.
After @proximityfi got a grant from NEAR, Ref rebranded to RHEA 

Here's what Rhea is now in a nutshell
• Built on NEAR
• Core product: supply/borrow + LP farming
• Built-in points system for future rewards
• Now supports $nBTC — a wrapped $BTC asset
• TVL rising, user activity growing

The strategy is simple. You’ll provide liquidity to the $nBTC &lt;&gt; $NEAR pool and farm yield.
Current APR? Around 65%
And you’re earning $NEAR incentives + Rhea points in parallel.
Here’s how to do it (step by step): 

Step 1: Get $nBTC
You can mint or swap for it easily:
• Use @SatoshiBTC to on-ramp $nBTC via $BTC wallets
• Or swap into it directly from over 150 tokens on NEAR
Rhea supports native $BTC wallet connections, which is rare and useful. 

Step 2: Provide liquidity
Go here: https://dex.rhea.finance/sauce/5949
Choose the nBTC &lt;&gt; NEAR pool.
Supply your tokens 50/50 and confirm LP. That’s your base position.

Step 3: Start farming
Once LP is active, you stake it to farm rewards.
These come in two forms:
• $NEAR tokens — up to $1.86K/week distributed to the pool
• Rhea points — which will likely matter later 

So what are you really earning?
• The APR today is around 65%, but was over 100% last week
• The rewards are in $NEAR
• You also stack points for future use or airdrops
And all that — while your $BTC is still exposed to market upside. 

This isn’t some low-volume farm either.
This is the first $BTC liquidity on Rhea, and it’s being incentivized heavily.
If NEAR continues pushing BTC DeFi, this pool will be one of the core primitives. 

It’s still early, but it looks like Rhea is building out a full DeFi stack around $nBTC.
No bridges. No CEX. Just pure onchain BTC-based yield.

BTC is no longer just an asset to hold and hope.
With protocols like @rhea_finance on NEAR, you can earn high yield with minimal complexity — without leaving the Bitcoin economy.
The setup takes a few clicks. I’ve done it. Might be worth a look while APR is still high.
