The Lorenzo Protocol is a crypto platform with two main focuses: as the first liquid Bitcoin restaking protocol and as an institutional-grade asset management platform focused on tokenizing financial products that generate yields. To achieve its vision, this project has established various strategic partnerships with other projects in the crypto ecosystem. Here are some of them:
1. Babylon
The partnership with Babylon is one of the most important for the Lorenzo Protocol, especially in the development of its liquid Bitcoin restaking product. Through integration with Babylon's technology, the Lorenzo Protocol can create liquid Bitcoin restaking tokens (stBTC) that correspond to the Bitcoin staked in the Babylon Bitcoin staking protocol. This allows holders of small amounts of Bitcoin to stake and apply a set of mechanisms to ensure the security of the restaking process. Additionally, the Lorenzo Protocol will also be secured by Bitcoin through the staking and time-signing protocols of Babylon, and it will have security alignment with layer 2 secured by that protocol.
2. Bitlayer
Lorenzo Protocol has established a strategic partnership with Bitlayer, the first layer 2 equivalent to Bitcoin's security based on the Bit VM paradigm. The main goal of this partnership is to enhance growth and engagement in both of their ecosystems. One of the key points of this partnership is the use of stBTC, Lorenzo's original liquid principal token, in the Bitlayer DeFi ecosystem. By implementing incentives for stakers, Lorenzo will encourage stBTC generated through staking BTC to be used in Babylon and other PoS chains for various applications and yield-generating opportunities. This is expected to increase the Total Value Locked (TVL) for both platforms, create more yield opportunities for members of their respective communities, and enhance engagement in each ecosystem.
3. Satoshi Protocol
Satoshi Protocol has announced a strategic partnership with Lorenzo Protocol, the pioneering Bitcoin liquidity financial layer. This partnership aims to unlock new possibilities for Bitcoin in the DeFi space. In the near future, Satoshi Protocol will support stBTC issued by Lorenzo Protocol as collateral for borrowing their stablecoin, SAT. This provides additional flexibility and utility for users, streamlining access to profitable yield opportunities in the DeFi space and adding liquidity to the BTC Fi ecosystem.
4. Block Street XYZ
On August 12, 2025, Lorenzo Protocol announced a major partnership with Block Street XYZ, a decentralized financial infrastructure provider for corporations. The main goal of this partnership is to expand the use of stablecoin USD1 for cross-border payments (cross-border B2B settlements). This partnership strengthens Lorenzo's position as a key player in the enterprise DeFi sector, and their governance token, BANK, is now part of a global transaction infrastructure potentially utilized by companies for international payment settlements.
5. World Liberty Financial (WLFI)
Lorenzo Protocol collaborates with World Liberty Financial (WLFI) in the USD1 ecosystem. As WLFI's official asset management partner, Lorenzo launched USD1+, the next-generation financial product based on USD1 that integrates yields from real-world assets (RWA), trading strategies, and DeFi protocols. This collaboration ensures compliance and institutional-level liquidity for Lorenzo's on-chain traded funds (OTFs).
6. Informal Systems
Lorenzo Protocol has partnered with Informal Systems for its integration into the ATOM ecosystem. Although specific details about this collaboration have not been widely announced, this partnership is expected to help Lorenzo Protocol expand its reach and enhance its product usability in the Cosmos ecosystem.
7. NAVI Protocol
In December 2024, Lorenzo Protocol announced a partnership with NAVI Protocol aimed at enhancing BTC liquidity in the Move ecosystem. Although specific details on how this collaboration will be executed have not been disclosed, this partnership is expected to create more opportunities for BTC holders in the Move ecosystem and increase engagement on both platforms.
In addition to the partnerships mentioned above, Lorenzo Protocol has also collaborated with several other projects in the crypto ecosystem on various initiatives, such as pre-launch staking events and joint mining events. By continuing to forge strategic partnerships with other projects, Lorenzo Protocol is expected to expand its reach, enhance its product usability, and contribute to the overall growth and development of the crypto ecosystem.
