GOAT Network's Yield Layer is designed to generate sustainable yield for BTC holders as the network grows. The architecture captures value from multiple sources and distributes it to participants who secure the network.(See how it works here: Economic Paper)

BTC-Denominated Returns

Yield is earned and paid in BTC -  not in volatile governance tokens. Your returns compound in the asset you actually want to hold.

Native BTC Staking

Stake BTC directly to help secure the network. No wrapping, no custodians, no counterparty risk. Your keys, your Bitcoin, your yield.

Protocol-Level Value Capture

The Yield Layer is architected to capture value from transaction fees, MEV redistribution, and ecosystem partnerships. As network adoption grows, these revenue streams flow back to stakers.

Security Through Alignment

Staked BTC secures the decentralized sequencer. Stakers are economically aligned with network health - honest participation is rewarded, misbehavior is penalized.

This design ensures that yield scales with real usage, creating long-term sustainability rather than short-term inflation.
