Nasdaq-Listed Metalpha Pushes Institutional Bitcoin Deployment On-Chain Metalpha Technology Holding Limited (NASDAQ: MATH), a publicly traded institutional digital asset manager, is bringing its Bitcoin liquidity to Solana through a new strategic partnership with Zeus Network. Announced today, the collaboration will see Metalpha provide Bitcoin liquidity via APOLLO, Zeus Network’s first decentralized application designed to unlock Bitcoin’s utility on Solana. Strengthening Cross-Chain Bitcoin Access Zeus Network operates as a multichain infrastructure layer on the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), offering tools to move Bitcoin on-chain without relying on custodians. Metalpha’s move to deploy Bitcoin through Zeus Network strengthens this mission, providing liquidity that powers decentralized finance (DeFi) applications on Solana while supporting the network’s security via decentralized validation. "With Metalpha joining Zeus Network as a liquidity provider, we’re able to lean into their digital asset management experience to continue developing a more accessible and scalable Bitcoin liquidity solution for institutional Bitcoin owners," said Justin Wang, Co-Founder and CEO of Zeus Network. Why Solana? Metalpha’s choice to deploy liquidity on Solana highlights the chain’s growing dominance as a home for high-performance, institutional-grade DeFi. Known for its speed, low costs, and active developer ecosystem, Solana is quickly becoming a go-to platform for asset managers looking to activate idle Bitcoin in permissionless environments. Through Zeus Network’s infrastructure, Bitcoin holders can transform their assets into zBTC (Zeus Network Bitcoin), a non-custodial token usable across DeFi protocols on Solana. This expands Bitcoin’s role beyond static storage, allowing it to generate yield, provide liquidity, and participate in decentralized finance in new ways. Expanding Institutional Bitcoin Use Cases Metalpha’s involvement goes beyond liquidity provision. Leveraging its experience in structured financial products and risk management, the firm aims to contribute to the evolution of Bitcoin as a capital-efficient asset in DeFi. This partnership represents a significant step toward institutional adoption of on-chain Bitcoin utilities, bridging the gap between traditional finance and Web3. As Zeus Network prepares for further ecosystem expansion, the integration of Metalpha’s liquidity is set to unlock new opportunities for developers, liquidity providers, and institutional Bitcoin holders alike.
