Today, Solv Protocol announced a strategic partnership with Chainlink to improve the transparency of its entire protocol TVL. In the complex world of DeFi, Solv has established its name as a prominent protocol that offers Bitcoin staking services.
It is a DeFi platform that allows users to stake Bitcoin across numerous protocols and ecosystems while using its unparalleled tech infrastructure to maintain liquidity.

Empowering Solv with real-world data
Its success is immensely boosted by its partnership with Chainlink, a blockchain abstraction layer that offers real-world data to dApps and smart contracts. This partnership improves the accuracy and security of the Solv network, creating an advanced model in the DeFi landscape.
Chainlink’s blockchain abstraction layer plays an imperative role in the DeFi world. They serve as linkages that securely transport off-chain data to on-chain applications. Chainlink Oracle network provides real-time, protected data to Solv’s dApps and smart contracts, ensuring they function based on current and accurate information. This ability is important for Solv, which relies on precise data to manage its TVL ratios and collateral values efficiently.
Collateral valuation
In the DeFi world, collateral valuation is essential to ensure that a financial system (like Solv) operates in an accountable, transparent, and clean manner. Solv, therefore, uses Chainlik’s price feeds to get real-time data on token values, enabling the platform to asses TVL ratios precisely. This partnership ensures that Solv’s collateral values are constantly updated, allowing Solv to respond rapidly to market fluctuations and protect users.
Enhance transparency in transactions
With this collaboration, Chainlink’s POR (proof of reserve) now offers on-chain transparency into Solv’s entire protocol TVL rather than only on SolvBTC. The POR has been providing current data that verifies the reserves of SolvBTC to enhance investor confidence.
Now Solv is broadening its existing integration with Chainlink Proof of Reserve to offer on-chain transparency into its entire protocol TVL, not just on SolvBTC. With this integration, users will have broader visibility into the entire Solv’s TVL.
Integration of Chainlink’s reserve data on Solv on-chain allows Solv network to develop automated logic around the reserve data to back its assets. This also allows Solv to develop new applications and capabilities like automatic on-chain risk management.
Also, with this integration, Chainlink’s Proof of Reserve plays an essential role in Solv protocol’s minting. Minting in the Solv chain refers to the process of creating new SolvBTC coins by depositing Bitcoin or wrapped Bitcoin (BTCB or WBTC). Chainlink’s POR helps to secure Solv’s minting process. It protects against malicious minting by anchoring secure encryptions that back new tokens with reserve, thus helping to prevent countless mint attacks.
Chainlink POR feeds can be visibly seen by anybody in real-time. This is essential as it allows any user to verify Solv’s asset collateralization, thus helping to create enhanced transparency and trust in Solv’s on-chain offerings.
