Ethereum R1 offers a decentralized rollup solution for Ethereum

This article dives into Bitcoin liquid staking protocol Lombard Finance, how LBTC works and how you can stake LBTC through Bybit Web3.

Bitcoin stands as the undisputed giant of the cryptocurrency space, commanding the largest market capitalization. Yet, much of its potential remains untapped, often sitting idle as a store of value rather than actively participating in the thriving 

 ecosystem. Lombard Finance aims to change this narrative by unlocking Bitcoin's utility and integrating it seamlessly into DeFi.

Lombard is built upon Babylon, the innovative Bitcoin staking protocol, and is incubated by Polychain Capital. Lombard’s flagship product, 

 (LST) for BTC. This article explores what Lombard Finance is and how LBTC works, and describes the Lombard ecosystem and how you can stake LBTC through Bybit Web3.

 is a liquid staking protocol that focuses on transforming 

's role in the digital economy. Its core mission is to evolve BTC from simply being a store of value — also viewed as 

 — into a productive asset that actively generates yield and participates within DeFi. Currently, a significant portion of Bitcoin's

 sits idle, lacking the native staking capabilities or cross-chain composability seen with assets such as 

Lombard Finance addresses this shortcoming by building on top of 

, a protocol that supports BTC staking without needing 

 or custodians. Babylon allows Bitcoin's economic weight to secure other 

 (PoS) chains and applications, creating a new yield source for holders. Lombard leverages this foundation to offer LBTC, making staked BTC liquid and usable across the DeFi market.

Lombard’s goal is ambitious: to channel Bitcoin's vast liquidity into DeFi. This could potentially double the ecosystem's 

 (TVL) if even a fraction of available BTC is introduced. Lombard believes this integration will catalyze significant growth and create more sustainable market dynamics by making BTC a core, yield-bearing primitive within DeFi.

Founders and investors of Lombard Finance

Lombard Finance was founded in April 2024 by a team with deep expertise within DeFi, drawing talent from established crypto projects like Polychain, Babylon, Argent, Coinbase and Maple. This collective experience underpins the protocol's design and strategic direction.

The project was notably incubated by Polychain Capital, a prominent crypto investment firm that also led Lombard's $16 million seed funding round (which was 

 in July 2024). This round saw participation from a wide array of significant players in the crypto space — including Babylon, dao5, Franklin Templeton, Foresight Ventures, HTX Ventures, Mirana Ventures, Mantle EcoFund, Nomad Capital, OKX Ventures and Robot Ventures — thus highlighting broad industry confidence in Lombard's vision. Strategic partnerships and contributions from exchanges like

 and Bitget are further bolstering its distribution and liquidity aggregation efforts.

LBTC is Lombard Finance's flagship product — a liquid staking token (LST) that represents Bitcoin staked through the Babylon protocol. Designed as a universal liquid BTC standard, LBTC is fully backed 1:1 by native Bitcoin, ensuring its value is directly tied to the underlying asset.

The token is yield-bearing, capturing rewards generated from securing PoS networks via Babylon staking. Crucially, LBTC remains liquid, meaning holders can freely use it across various DeFi applications — such as 

 and automated vaults — without sacrificing their underlying staked positions or associated yield.

LBTC is also designed for cross-chain compatibility, natively minted on supported blockchains like Ethereum, Base and Sui and using secure infrastructure [such as 

]. This avoids the risks associated with traditional bridging or wrapping methods, thus aiming to provide a more secure and seamless way to utilize Bitcoin across the multichain DeFi ecosystem.

Lombard Finance simplifies the process of putting Bitcoin to work within DeFi through its LBTC token. The mechanism is designed with security and user experience in mind, leveraging the Babylon protocol and a robust Security Consortium.

The core benefit of LBTC lies in its ability to unlock multiple layers of value simultaneously. Holders earn native yield from Babylon staking, potentially accrue additional rewards (such as Lombard Lux points) and gain access to diverse DeFi yield opportunities, all while maintaining the liquidity of their Bitcoin position. This transforms BTC from a static asset into a dynamic, yield-generating component of the DeFi ecosystem.

Lombard Finance is actively building a wide LBTC ecosystem that already boasts over 75 DeFi integrations. Security is foundational, anchored by the 14-member Security Consortium (including prominent names like Galaxy and OKX Ventures) and validating all critical operations alongside audits and bug bounties.

Core infrastructure relies both on Babylon for staking, and on the Chainlink CCIP for secure cross-chain movement, with EigenLayer integration 

. LBTC integrates with leading DeFi applications across lending platforms (e.g., 

) and automated vaults. The platform supports multiple blockchains (including Ethereum, Base, Sui, BNB Chain) and 

 (L2s), positioning LBTC as a versatile cross-chain asset.

Here's how you can stake BTC on Lombard and use LBTC in DeFi and automated vaults.

Lombard Finance (via its LBTC token) offers a compelling way for Bitcoin holders to put their assets into use, earn yield via Babylon staking and gain exposure to the expansive DeFi ecosystem — all while maintaining liquidity. Incubated by Polychain Capital and supported by a robust consortium and growing partner network, Lombard is positioning LBTC as a secure and versatile liquid Bitcoin standard.

It’s easy to participate in the Lombard ecosystem through 

, you can utilize your Bybit Web3 Seed Phrase Wallet to stake BTC and mint 

, Lombard's vault token that represents deposits in automated yield strategies. This provides you with a seamless gateway to access Bitcoin liquid staking and DeFi yields.

The cryptocurrency market has entered a phase reminiscent of past altcoin seasons, primarily driven by Bitcoin's recent rebound to the $94K–$96K range. 

Altcoin season might have come with reviveding speculation 

The cryptocurrency market has entered a phase reminiscent of past altcoin seasons, primarily driven by Bitcoin's recent rebound to the $94K–$96K range. This resurgence has sparked renewed interest among retail traders, shifting focus from Bitcoin to smaller, more speculative altcoins. The overall market saw a 10% increase in value during the final eight days of April, contrasting with Bitcoin's 7% gain. This trend indicates a growing appetite for risk among investors, particularly in meme coins, which have seen a surge in social media discussions.

However, caution is warranted as elevated crowd enthusiasm often precedes market corrections. Historical patterns suggest that when buzzwords like "altseason" are dominating discussions, it may signal an impending price exhaustion. The current market dynamics reflect a shift toward speculative investments, raising concerns about the sustainability of this enthusiasm.

Bitcoin's bullish sentiment substantially improves

Bitcoin's position as the leading cryptocurrency has remained steady, with discussions around its price fluctuating significantly. Following a period of pessimism, when predictions dipped as low as $10K–$69K, sentiment shifted dramatically with the price recovery. Now, optimistic projections of $100K–$159K are dominating conversations, indicating a reversal in trader sentiment.

Despite Bitcoin's consistent presence in market discussions (approximately 25% of asset topics), the ratio of bullish-to-bearish commentary has grown increasingly favorable. This suggests a growing confidence among traders bolstered by Bitcoin's recent performance. However, it’s essential to monitor whether this bullish sentiment translates into sustained investment, or if it leads to overconfidence that may trigger a market pullback.

Ethere, once a robust contender in the altcoin arena, has struggled to regain retail investor confidence despite recent bullish commentary and promises of innovation from co-founder Vitalik Buterin. Its social media presence has dwindled to about 6–7% of discussions, a significant drop from previous years. This decline highlights the challenges Ethereum faces in re-establishing itself as a go-to investment in a market increasingly dominated by speculative assets.

Conversely, XRP has seen a notable increase in optimism surrounding ETF approvals, with expectations rising to 85%. This shift reflects a broader trend of institutional interest in cryptocurrencies, potentially paving the way for significant capital inflows. Meanwhile, Dogecoin's potential ETF listings have sparked renewed interest, transforming its image from that of a meme coin to a legitimate investment option. The growing dialogue surrounding institutional adoption of Dogecoin and XRP indicates a pivotal moment for these assets, suggesting they may play critical roles in the evolving cryptocurrency landscape.

Bybit Spread Trading allows traders to simultaneously buy and sell two related instruments in order to hedge risk or profit from price discrepancies. Read more.

Whether markets are flying high or wobbling unpredictably, one thing remains true: traders are always looking for smarter ways to 

 and find profit opportunities. That’s where Bybit Spread Trading comes in. This feature is tailor-made for those who want to go beyond basic buy/sell plays and start taking advantage of price discrepancies between related instruments. In this guide, we’ll walk through exactly how Bybit Spread Trading works, why it matters and how you can start using it today, whether you’re 

is a newly launched Bybit feature that allows users to simultaneously buy and sell two related instruments — such as Spot, Perpetual or Expiry contracts with different settlement dates — in order to hedge risk or profit from price discrepancies.

This type of trading strategy is popular among institutional and professional traders because it enables more precise, controlled market exposure. However, with Bybit’s interface, the barrier to entry is significantly lowered, opening the door for individual traders to tap with just a few clicks into a powerful set of tools.

At its core, Spread Trading on Bybit is about executing what’s called a combo trade. This means entering two positions at once: one long, one short. These positions are taken on related instruments, such as a BTC Spot trade and a BTC Perpetual contract, with the idea that their prices will either converge or diverge in a way that benefits your position.

When you place a buy combo, you’re buying the instrument with the longer expiration (the “far leg”) and selling the one that expires sooner (the “near leg”). 

A sell combo is the reverse: selling the far leg and buying the near leg. The profit (or loss) comes from how the spread between these two instruments shifts over time.

For example, if you believe the spread between a Perpetual and a Quarterly Futures contract will widen, you can buy the combo. If the spread increases after your entry, that movement becomes your profit. Bybit calculates your 

 prices automatically, based on the mark prices and your defined “order price,” so there’s no need to manually crunch the numbers.

Perhaps the most important feature here is atomic execution. This ensures both sides of your combo trade are filled together, in equal quantities, or the trade doesn’t go through at all. It removes “leg risk,” which is the danger of getting filled on one side of the trade, but not the other. In volatile markets, that alone can save you from an unwanted mess.

Spread Trading on Bybit currently supports combinations such as Spot and Perpetual, Spot and Expiry, Perpetual and Expiry, or even two Expiry contracts with different dates. This flexibility lets you build strategies that align with different market outlooks — bullish, bearish or neutral.

There’s a strong reason why Spread Trading is a go-to for many experienced traders: it allows for strategic plays that are more sophisticated than just guessing price direction. On Bybit, it’s not only powerful, but also convenient.

First, you get price certainty. Your spread is locked in at the price you specify. There’s no 

 between legs because the entry prices are automatically calculated and matched. You’re trading the spread, not the individual legs.

Secondly, the trading experience is smoother. Instead of placing two separate orders and manually trying to sync them, Bybit handles everything as a single transaction. You don’t have to worry about whether one leg gets filled and the other doesn’t — that risk is eliminated through atomic execution.

Third, this setup is a great hedge against volatility. By taking opposing positions on two related contracts, you reduce exposure to sharp price movements. Your P&L becomes more about the relative performance between contracts, rather than the market direction itself.

There’s also a strong cost advantage. Trading spreads on Bybit is significantly cheaper than doing it manually. You pay only half the trading fees you’d incur if you placed two individual trades on the order book. For high-volume or 

, that translates to meaningful savings over time.

Finally, it unlocks strategy flexibility. Whether you're 

 funding rates between Spot and Perpetual, doing 

 with different Futures contracts or taking advantage of price convergence before expiry, this platform gives you the tools to execute those ideas efficiently.

How to get started with Bybit Spread Trading 

Now that you have a better understanding of how Bybit Spread Trading works, let’s look into how to get started. Please note that you’ll need to have a Bybit account in order to proceed. If you don’t already have one, please check out our

Spread trading isn’t for everyone — but if you’re someone who enjoys strategic trading, hedging or arbitrage, it’s a tool worth adding to your arsenal. It appeals to traders who are less interested in taking a directional bet, and more focused on capitalizing on inefficiencies in the market.

You don’t have to be a pro trader to benefit, either. The simplified execution and intuitive UI mean even intermediate users can explore advanced strategies without being overwhelmed. As long as you understand how spreads work, and how your P&L is affected by their movement, you’re already halfway there.

More importantly, in times of market uncertainty or low volatility — when price action feels sluggish — spread trading gives you an alternative way to profit. It keeps you in the game — even when momentum plays aren’t cutting it.

Bybit Spread Trading is a powerful tool that combines simplicity with sophistication. Whether you're looking to hedge, save on fees or experiment with 

 strategies, it offers a clean and user-friendly way to do so. With lower risk, lower costs and plenty of flexibility, Bybit Spread Trading is a smart move for any trader looking to level up their game — especially when markets get messy.

Liquidity is the backbone of decentralized finance (

). It ensures users can access fair pricing and more comprehensive trading options. However, DeFi’s liquidity has been fragmented, leading to market inefficiencies and complex trading strategies.

To counter these challenges, the Orion blockchain has introduced innovative technology to the DeFi space through the Orion Terminal, which acts as a 

), ensuring retail traders access to better pricing through increased liquidity.

Furthermore, in a bid to become more inclusive and expand its functionalities, Orion Protocol’s transitioning into Orion 2.0 in 2024 will include a 

 and Lumia, an enhanced liquidity network that goes beyond retail to provide seamless liquidity.

 Protocol is a decentralized blockchain that acts as a liquidity aggregator protocol for CEXs and DEXs to ensure better pricing and an efficient DeFi trading experience for its users.

Through the Orion Terminal, DeFi retail enthusiasts can access deep liquidity from a single interface for swapping and bridging, and for adding assets to liquidity pools.

Due to its unique value proposition to the DeFi space, Orion Protocol has garnered considerable success that has prompted the team to aspire beyond the current structure. As a result, Orion Protocol is transitioning to Orion 2.0, which will be more inclusive and have expansive functionalities.

Key features of Orion include the following: 

 is a comprehensive decentralized liquidity network that will integrate the liquidity of CEXs with that of DEXs to ensure a cohesive DeFi liquidity framework in a single place. It’s crucial to note that Lumia won't replace Orion; instead, Orion will act as Lumia's retail arm, and the Orion Terminal will run on Lumia.

Some of the challenges that Lumia seeks to address include the fragmented liquidity in DeFi, the struggles of 

 (L2) to trade efficiently due to the lack of adequate total value locked (

 and the challenge of limited market access.

In a nutshell, Lumia operates an infrastructure consisting of liquidity nodes that are used to set up collateral and provide liquidity in a safe environment using the Lumia Node software. The nodes then connect to APIs in centralized exchanges, allowing DeFi users to access that liquidity, which is a first in the space.

Unlike Orion, Lumia will shift focus from only retail users and expand its reach to the entire crypto market, where it will provide the framework to power web3 wallets, DEXs and aggregators, and decentralize apps (

) for lending and borrowing among other products in the market.

Some leading projects in web3, such as Waves and 1inch Network, 

 Lumia to provide their users with deeper liquidity when transacting.

Lumia's unique selling point is its reward system, which benefits all of the network's participants, including liquidity nodes and governance stakers.

Ultimately, Orion Protocol aims to provide a framework that allows DeFi traders to access value efficiently and affordably. To do so, Orion’s proprietary technology works in the following ways.

Orion Protocol has come up with an innovative approach to unify the fragmented liquidity in DeFi by positioning traders in a way that lets them enjoy competitive prices and swift transactions. It does this by connecting liquidity from both centralized and decentralized exchanges, providing users with deep liquidity and lucrative 

Orion’s arbitrage advantage comes from using a virtual order book (VOB). This innovative order-matching engine offers traders a unique market view, positioning them to capitalize on price variations between specific trading pairs in various crypto exchanges.

The main facets of Orion’s liquidity aggregation feature include the following.

 is a term coined by Orion to describe the platform’s ability to harness the liquidity of CEXs in a decentralized way.

Through deCEX Trading, you can access CEXs without creating an account on the individual platforms. Orion's deCEX Trading leverages the platform's liquidity nodes, which connect you to CEXs, whose liquidity you can tap into in order to enjoy a faster trading experience.

Through this feature, Orion can handle even

 through its brokers, saving you the hassle of the verification that comes with it, which makes your crypto journey less cumbersome.

Through Orion deCEX Trading, you’ll gain access to a live and fast order book in which transactions are instant, thanks to 

. This stands in contrast to DEXs, such as 

, which rely on automated market makers (

) powered by liquidity pools and complex algorithms. You'll also have access to optimized price feeds when trading, which enable you to trade with the best prices possible.

Orion’s transmuted AMM price curves have created a way to merge the stability of CEX pricing through order books, with the liquidity of DEXs that use AMMs.

Simply put, transmuted AMM price curves convert AMM price curves into traditional order books, which allows users to better compare prices across different platforms in the cryptocurrency markets. Additionally, this feature allows you to place 

 on AMMs, a feat that was previously impossible.

By transmuting AMM price curves, Orion Protocol offers a whole new way to trade crypto that seamlessly integrates the liquidity of CEXs with that of DEXs to provide traders with optimal pricing.

The virtual order book (VOB) is a unique product from Orion that acts as an aggregated order book in which you can view different liquidity sources directly and assess the potential liquidity of complex swaps. The VOB takes away the hassle of calculating complex swaps, allowing you access to the best and most competitive prices while unlocking profitable arbitrage opportunities.

VOBs are powered by Orion’s Liquidity Node Network, which uses a Delegated Proof-of-Liquidity (

) mechanism to operate. Through the VOB, Orion sends a user's orders to specific liquidity nodes, which process the order.

) mechanism, Orion's DPoL requires node providers to stake ORN tokens in order to obtain a higher chance of processing an order. Apart from staking, the liquidity nodes also need to provide traders with the correct tokens and keep adequate reserves to process the order.

The dynamic nature of Orion’s VOB provides traders with a much-needed real-time view of the market from a single place. This innovative approach ensures a holistic trading experience that’s effective and efficient.

Orion Terminal was Orion Protocol’s flagship product, bringing the DeFi space an innovative technology that allows liquidity aggregation for both CEXs and DEXs. Through it, users can access deep liquidity from top exchanges by using a single, secure interface, eliminating the need to create multiple accounts and conduct cumbersome KYCs.

Apart from being a secure and easy-to-use platform, another distinctive feature of Orion Terminal is its transparent and economical fee structure, shown below:

You can access the following services on Orion Terminal.

Due to the unified liquidity of Orion's innovative technology, users can perform cost-effective swaps at the best prices. Orion Terminal taps into CEXs to provide traders with competitive pricing. You’ll only need to connect your wallet and 

maintain a sufficient balance of the network's native coins to cover transaction fees.

Orion Swap is easy to navigate, has a list of top tokens, offers smart depositing, has automatic network switching and supports a wide range of wallets, including 

Orion Bridge allows you to trade leading crypto assets quickly, seamlessly and securely across Ethereum and BNB Chain, with more chains to come. As a truly decentralized cross-chain bridge, Orion Bridge doesn’t need you to 

The bridge is integrated into the Orion DEX and is free to use with minimal network fees. Orion Bridge is underpinned by three core technologies: atomic swaps for safe cross-chain exchanging of assets, a 

 network that eliminates third parties and Liquidity Nodes that ensure instantaneous matching of trades.

Orion Pools allow users to provide liquidity, create new liquidity pools and even personalize their liquidity provision experience by enabling the addition of logos.

Built to mirror the Uniswap v2 model, Orion Pools embraces a democratized approach to liquidity pools, in which users can choose from over 50 available pools. Through Orion Pools, you earn passively through enhanced liquidity farming, which is structured to maximize rewards for liquidity providers.

Orion Widget is an app you can add to web pages or DApps to provide token accessibility to any ecosystem. Adding the Orion Widget empowers users to trade crypto assets directly from their platforms. The widget is easily customizable and easy to integrate.

The ORN token is the native token of Orion Protocol and will remain instrumental as the platform transitions to Orion. ORN is vital in powering the liquidity network through the Orion DAO. Once you stake your ORN tokens, you’ll receive veORN tokens that represent your share in the platform's governance matters and your commensurate influence on Orion’s DAO.

As a governance staker, you can lock your ORN into the platform’s Liquidity Nodes, where you’ll earn rewards for securing the network. You can also earn ORN rewards by participating in Orion's Refer & Earn program, in which higher ORN balances garner higher rewards.

Furthermore, over 90% of the eligible Orion community has voted to transition the ORN token to LUMIA as the project evolves to become more expansive and offer a comprehensive range of services to users.

ORN had an initial supply of 100 million tokens. After burning 7,368,745 ORN tokens, its total supply now stands at 92,631,255 ORN. Token supply details are as shown below:

As of Mar 27, 2024, ORN’s price was $2.20, a 92.4% drop from its ATH of $29.25 on Mar 22, 2021, and a 376.2% increase from its ATL of $0.4642 on Oct 12, 2023.

Price prediction platforms are pretty bullish on ORN's future price. Forecasting experts at PricePrediction 

 $1.44 in 2025 and rise to a maximum price of $8.62 in 2030. Meanwhile, CoinCodex has a somewhat 

, as its experts believe ORN could trade at $10.28 in 2025 and drop to $8.74 by 2030.

That said, these price predictions don’t guarantee ORN’s future price. We highly recommend you 

From its outset, Orion Protocol has set the pace with innovating technology that unifies liquidity from CEXs and DEXs, which wasn’t available previously in the DeFi space. Furthermore, the Orion Protocol  team has decided to venture into a DAO to transition the project into a more user-empowered and decentralized platform, a shift that enhances the stability of the project’s tokenomics and makes Orion more equitable and democratic.

This adoption of a DAO has allowed Orion Protocol to upgrade to Lumia, which is a game-changer in the DeFi space by virtue of its being a unified liquidity network. Lumia expands the project’s focus from only retail to accommodate the broader crypto ecosystem. It provides deCEX liquidity, which powers ultrafast and affordable trades. Lumia is also a foundational layer for projects to access the liquidity and tools to thrive, and top projects like 1Inch and Waves have already integrated Lumia into their platforms.

Based on Orion’s transition to Lumia, which offers superior prices and ample liquidity beyond retail, we believe Orion is a good investment for crypto enthusiasts looking for long-term value. That said, this isn't financial advice, and it's essential to

 contract on Bybit’s Derivatives platform.

Orion continues to contribute considerably to the DeFi space by aggregating liquidity between CEXs and DEXs, allowing traders to access the best prices in a decentralized way. As it transitions into Orion 2.0 and upscales to Lumia, the project will continue to expand its value proposition and increase utility for the ORN token, which will soon become LUMIA.

DeFi is competitive, and the Orion ecosystem already has a competitive edge with its innovative liquidity aggregation technology, which includes a virtual order book and transmuted AMM price curves. For sure, it’s one project to watch in the web3 space.
