For 15 years, Bitcoin has been dedicated to achieving its goal as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. However, due to its inefficiencies and limited programmability, many entities can only offer wrapped versions of Bitcoin, which undermines asset transparency and holder privacy.
The Zeus Network has now developed a permissionless framework that allows Bitcoin liquidity to flow freely between Bitcoin and Solana. For Bitcoin holders seeking to use Bitcoin in a modern, decentralized way, Bitcoin Finance (BTCFi) has entered a new chapter.
APOLLO Mainnet v1 and zBTC: Permissionless Bitcoin Liquidity on Solana
APOLLO is the flagship dApp of the Zeus ecosystem, launched on March 27, and is the first on-chain Bitcoin exchange on Solana. zBTC is the first permissionless Bitcoin on Solana, providing liquidity to Meteora, HawkFi, Raydium, and others, redefining the way Bitcoin cross-chain liquidity works and opening new opportunities in the BTCFi space on Solana.
Liquidity Provision – Provide liquidity on Meteora, HawkFi, and Raydium
Before its launch, APOLLO already had a high adoption rate, with on-chain trading volume exceeding $40 million and 50 zBTC minted on Solana. These milestones highlight APOLLO's ability to overcome the limitations of traditional wrapped Bitcoin solutions by providing a transparent, secure, and trustless platform, thus bringing true Bitcoin liquidity to Solana.

Building BTCFi on Solana
BTCFi stands for Bitcoin Finance, referring to a set of decentralized financial services and applications that leverage Bitcoin's security and liquidity.
Bitcoin holders have long relied on centralized Bitcoin solutions, facing challenges and risks related to transparency. Therefore, zBTC offers a game-changing alternative: a permissionless 1:1 Bitcoin-pegged asset that operates transparently on Solana.
With the public release of APOLLO on March 27, 2025, all traders can lock their BTC to mint zBTC and withdraw native BTC at any time. APOLLO integrates zBTC into Solana's DeFi ecosystem, enhancing Bitcoin liquidity and bringing innovation to BTCFi. Additionally, users can utilize zBTC to execute various DeFi strategies on Solana. As zBTC undergoes cross-protocol integration and expansion, opportunities for Bitcoin holders and liquidity providers will also increase.
Use Cases for APOLLO and zBTC:
Trading: Swap zBTC on Jupiter;
Lending: Borrow zBTC and lend USDC on Drift, Save Finance (coming soon);
Treasury Strategies (coming soon): Deposit zBTC on Drift and Neutral Trade.
APOLLO provides a decentralized environment where users can remain anonymous without the need for KYC verification like centralized bridges or wrapped BTC issuers, and there is no risk of freezing or control. Furthermore, Bitcoin on-chain proof of reserves (PoR) ZeusScan ensures that every transaction is fully traceable, making Zeus Network and APOLLO's commitment to security and transparency a reality.
APOLLO: On-Chain Bitcoin Exchange
Soon, APOLLO users will be able to customize their BTC experience—mint zBTC, swap for cbBTC or WBTC, and withdraw any version of BTC back to native BTC. These goals will validate APOLLO's market demand and its capability to effectively manage Bitcoin liquidity. With the launch of APOLLO Mainnet v1 and zBTC, Zeus Network not only redefines Bitcoin's role in DeFi but also paves the way for the next era of financial innovation.
Future Roadmap for the Zeus Ecosystem
Zeus Network continues to solidify its market positioning as a multi-chain layer, planning to integrate UTXO-based assets on Solana (such as DOGE, LTC, KAS), attract major institutional liquidity partners, and enhance ZPL assets to strengthen liquidity coverage. In the future, Zeus Network will launch more Bitcoin dApps on Solana.
