Binance launches BTC Yield, a BTC-based yield strategy product designed for BTC holders.
Odaily Odaily reported on July 7th that Binance announced the launch of a new advanced wealth management product, BTC Yield. BTC Yield is an open-ended yield strategy product denominated in BTC, designed for long-term holders who want to explore potential yield opportunities in Bitcoin without frequent market trading. BTC Yield is one of the first Bitcoin covered call option yield products launched by a mainstream cryptocurrency trading platform for both general and institutional users, demonstrating Binance's continued expansion from a trading platform into a broader financial super application. Shunyet Jan, Head of Exchange and Trading at Binance, said, “BTC Yield further enriches the product options Binance offers its users, allowing them to realize the value of digital assets in more ways. Covered call option strategies are quite mature in traditional financial markets, but direct participation by ordinary investors is usually quite difficult. BTC Yield simplifies this strategy, making it easier for Bitcoin holders who want to capture potential returns without frequent market trading to participate.” To celebrate the launch of BTC Yield, Binance Wealth Management is launching a limited-time promotion where eligible BTC Yield subscribers will have the chance to share a prize pool of 100,000 USDC.

VanEck executive: Strategy's $135 million Bitcoin sale last week did not use up its BTC Monetization Program quota.
According to ChainCatcher, Matthew Sigel, Head of Digital Asset Research at VanEck, stated on the X platform that, based on Strategy's latest 8-K filing, Strategy's $135 million Bitcoin sale last week did not utilize the $1.25 billion BTC Monetization Program quota. This is because the program only restricts sales used to replenish cash reserves; sales directly used to pay dividends are not included in this limit. Sigel points out that this means Strategy's actual Bitcoin sales capacity exceeds the commonly understood $1.25 billion.
