So proud of our team! We are just getting started! Thanks to our investors and partners for sharing our vision to bring high quality yield to Bitcoin. @opmichael_eth
We’re excited to share that we have raised $5M, led by Portal Ventures and Peer Ventures to help build The Income Orchestration Layer for Bitcoin. @Anchorage @PortalVentures @loancyborg

HoneyB started with a pretty simple question. Why can trillions of dollars in traditional markets access sophisticated income strategies, but Bitcoin holders are still largely limited. I spent years building in traditional finance and digital assets and I saw a massive gap between these two worlds. We built HoneyB to bridge that gap. Bringing institutional capital markets to Bitcoin and creating an entirely new source of yield at scale. Today is a big milestone for our team, but we're just getting started!

Friends often tell me how nice it must be to “be your own boss” Ask my wife if life was easier when I was a banker. Ask my kids if they see Daddy more now or before. It is always harder than you think Great things require sacrifice Great men learn to find peace through the pain

Bitcoin has become an institutional asset. The infrastructure around it is still catching up. Credit remains fragmented. Yield is difficult to evaluate and source. Custody, lending and capital markets remain disconnected. HoneyB is building the layer that connects them. The Buzz starts here.

Most people never even try to win because they are so afraid to fail. Founders and investors should watch this message and Feel it. I Have failed over and over and each time I come back with wisdom and strength to make my next venture bigger and more complete. I just watch @theunipcs and many other trade their way back after taking licks through the last year and am watching many founders build new projects that are going to explode on the scene this cycle. Don't be afraid to fail and go Fucking win! Buzz Buzz 🐝
🚨 Ilia Topuria is back on social media with his first post since the day after his loss at the UFC White House event It is a letter to his son, Hugo ❤️ "Hugo, I've been thinking about you these past few days. About what you felt when you saw me go down. I know it hurt you... But I'm also glad we went through it together. Because that day made both of us stronger. Losing isn't what matters. What matters is how you lose." (via @Topuriailia)

I ran a top lending team for the largest US retailer lender in the country and I can tell you this is not an exaggeration. Young people have decided they can’t afford to own a home even before they run the numbers Are they wrong? Older people staying put 3% fixed is too precious!
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Number of US homebuyers falls to lowest level ever recorded.

ETFs especially on the income producing side, are a natural fit for tokenization and DeFi. Highly liquid, transparent strategies generating real income are coming onchain. 🍯 🐝
THE BLOCK: Bitwise has partnered with Superstate to explore tokenizing its Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL). "You’ll be seeing avalanche of these press releases from asset managers in months ahead," ETF expert Nate Geraci commented.

The next evolution for Bitcoin is simple: make it productive. Institutional yield, on-chain, powered by RWAs.
A trillion-dollar asset shouldn’t sit idle. HoneyB is making Bitcoin productive through real-world yield delivered at institutional scale. Bitcoin deserves real yield. Institutions deserve secure access to it. Coming soon.

HoneyB’s edge isn’t just offering Bitcoin yield…it’s doing it at institutional scale. Most yield breaks when it scales. Off-chain lenders can handle size, but only at sky-high borrowing rates. On-chain protocols offer better rates, but can’t scale safely for institutional flows. HoneyB does both.
Technology is only one part of the equation. Building the future of finance also requires deep financial expertise. @loancyborg explains how Arch ensures global compliance and delivers the safest yield through a team of experienced financial professionals 👇

I found Bitcoin in 2013 and fell in love. Ethereum in 2017 showed me what was possible with smart contracts. Tokenization proved finance belongs on-chain. Arch is the missing piece, bringing it all together and establishing Bitcoin as the foundation of global finance.
Welcome to the new Arch. Sharper visuals, stronger voice, and a better feel to make real Bitcoin, finally programmable. Bitcoin should do more. Now it can.
