Today, Bitflow announced the launch of HODLMM — a

concentrated liquidity engine that establishes the first deep, on-chain BTC/USD venue

Bitflow Launches HODLMM: Concentrated Liquidity Comes to Bitcoin

settled on Bitcoin. The beta platform has gone live, with millions in liquidity

commitments from professional market makers.

For every asset besides bitcoin (BTC), decentralized exchanges are taking away market

share from centralized venues². BTC/USD trading is an $8T market annually, but 99% of

volume still happens on CEXs². Given the current state of Bitcoin scaling solutions,

capital had to leave the ecosystem to find a dollar.

“Bitcoin has the largest market cap in crypto, but its DEX infrastructure has lagged

embarrassingly behind every other ecosystem”, said Dylan Floyd, co-founder and CEO

of Bitflow. “HODLMM changes that. We’re delivering institution-grade concentrated liquidity tooling that helped define capital markets on Solana and Ethereum, and we built it very intentionally around Bitcoin and its active users.”

The BTC/USD Pair Bitcoin Has Been Missing

Winning Formula: Innovations from Circle, Stacks, and Bitflow have created a trifecta

to unlock the expansion of Bitcoin capital markets. More USD. More BTC. More volume.

More yield.

  • Circle — USDCx, now live on Stacks, is a 1:1 USDC-backed stablecoin plugged

directly into Circle’s multichain ecosystem.

  • Stacks — Fast transactions with Bitcoin finality, simple L1↔L2 interoperability for

BTC, with over 4,500 BTC already on-chain.

  • Bitflow — HODLMM delivers an institution-grade, orderbook-style AMM

“Institution-grade concentrated liquidity pools are coming home to Bitcoin. This type of

on-chain activity settling on Bitcoin is a huge milestone for Stacks and the on-chain BTC

economy. Congrats to the Bitflow team on this launch!” said Muneeb Ali, co-founder of

Stacks.

Efficiency: HODLMM concentrates capital within active trading ranges instead of

spreading it across an infinite price curve. LPs earn 3–5x more per dollar deployed, and

traders get better execution with zero price impact within active bins.


Markets: The platform launches with sBTC, STX, and USDCx pools — the foundational

liquidity layer for Bitcoin capital markets — later expanding into Runes ($DOG), liquid

staking tokens, and additional stablecoins in the ecosystem like USDh.

Yield: sBTC liquidity providers earn on two layers simultaneously: an annualized ~3–5%

in bitcoin from Stacks’ Dual Stacking mechanism, plus variable organic yield from trading fees.

“Why should Bitcoin’s liquidity settle on someone else’s chain?” Floyd asked. “That never made sense to us. So we built concentrated liquidity tooling ourselves, anchored to Bitcoin. I expect active Bitcoin users like arb hunters, institutions, and machines to be the top consumers of HODLMM”.

With Circle’s USDCx on Stacks and easy BTC onboarding through sBTC, Bitflow is

positioned to dominate on-chain volume for the most important pair in the industry. To

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
