Bitcoin finance protocol Hashi launches on Sui with BitGo, FalconX backing

The platform is designed to enable lending, borrowing and yield on native Bitcoin through onchain financial services.

A new Bitcoin-based finance protocol called Hashi has been introduced on the Sui blockchain, with early participation commitments from crypto institutions including BitGo, Bullish and FalconX ahead of its planned launch later this year.

According to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Hashi is designed to let Bitcoin holders earn yield on native Bitcoin (BTC) through onchain lending and borrowing, targeting a segment that currently represents a small share of Bitcoin’s overall market.
