Motif

The first in-kind Bitcoin staking DTP on Ethereum

A Bitcoin staking DTP is not the same as a staking ETP. Its in-kind creation and redemption are governed entirely by Ethereum smart contracts, resulting in fundamentally different trading risks.

Motif is the first in-kind Bitcoin staking DTP (Delegated Tokenised Position) issuance protocol on Ethereum. By separating custody from issuance, it enables Bitcoin holders to solo stake through EigenLayer and access a permissionless staking index that connects them to top-tier digital communities—spanning security, lending, stablecoins, data storage, prediction markets, and AI wallets.

Motif's ecosystem consists of solo stakers (operators) with custom staking policies and independent apps, representing a custom yield strategy, each with its own community of validators and users. Operators, apps, or third parties can permissionlessly issue staking DTP tokens as part of their app or create yield strategy vaults for other staking DTPs. Motif’s daily emissions incentivize app creators for their contributions to the index, fostering a self-sustaining app economy. Creators have the flexibility to further distribute rewards to operators, stakers, and other ecosystem participants.

Solo staking is powered by Bitcoin Remap, enabling operators to facilitate in-kind creation and redemption. This ensures staking DTPs remain fully backed by Bitcoin while allowing operators to design risk-adjusted remaps tailored to their Bitcoin LPs’ staking preferences.
