The Samurai’s Call is the latest chapter in Katana’s campaign to ignite its ecosystem! It’s calling all Bitcoin holders to join the charge, and deposit into the Turtle Club unique vaults!
Turtle Club is the Web3 distribution layer designed to connect high-quality protocols with liquidity providers, making it easier to find risk-aware yield opportunities. Launched in April 2024, it has already matched over $2.3 billion in liquidity
This is why Turtle Club has become a key player in the DeFi infrastructure space, and this is why the Samurai’s call has been answered! The 100 mill TVL milestone was quickly achieved, and there’s more to come as liquidity will flow to Katana!
For my DeFi experiment I will get involved with three protocols simultaneously, tapping into Katana, Lombard Finance, and obviously the Turtle Club! You can deposit $USDC, wETH, wBTC or USDT into the ecosystem vaults, or tap into partner vaults like weETH and LBTC!
For this experiment I will lock LBTC into the Bitcoin Katana Vault, and will start earning rewards immediately. This vault is built in collaboration with Turtle Clubhouse, Veda Labs, and powered by liquidity partners like Morpho and Sushi when Katana’s mainnet goes live.
