FAQ

What is Acre?
Image

Acre is a protocol that allows Bitcoin holders to earn additional BTC while retaining control of their private keys. Acre’s mission is simple: Compound bitcoin without compromising its principles of decentralization, transparency, or financial sovereignty.

Where do the rewards come from?
Image

Acre’s sources rewards from:

  • Bitcoin-native staking or liquidity programs
  • Bitcoin-aligned lending Protocols
  • Reward aggregators and vault strategies

In Acre’s first vault, Re7 Labs is our strategy / curationpartner. Rewards are sourced from:

  • Native BTC staking
  • BTC DeFi liquidity provision
  • Futures and options premia
How is my Bitcoin secured?
Image

Only you can retrieve your underlying BTC from Acre.There is no centralized custodian of your bitcoin within the Acre protocol.

Here’s what happens when you deposit:

  • When you deposit into Acre, your BTC is bridged to tBTC (ERC-20, Ethereum L1) via thet BTC bridge
  • This tBTC is deposited into the acre BTC vault (ERC-4626, Ethereum L1), which mints acre BTC deposit tokens and allocates tBTC across partner vaults
  • BTC deposits are secured by tBTC / Threshold network nodes (51-of-100 multisig) until the user redeems acre BTC to withdraw BTC
What are the fees?
Image

The Acre protocol charges a 0.45% fee on all withdrawals. These cover all bridging and network / gas fees. There is also a 20% protocol fee on rewards earned.

What is acre BTC?
Image

acre BTC is a non-rebasing ERC4626 deposit token on EthL1, which represents bitcoin deposited into Acre. The ERC4626 standard is atokenized vault standard, which is designed for the efficient management ofvaults and rewards.

 

acreBTCis a non-rebasing token, which means that the balance of acreBTC does NOT increase in a user's wallet as rewards accrue. Instead, the amount of bitcointhat acreBTC can be redeemed for increases. acreBTC is designed to be a deposit token exclusively (redeemed for BTC rewards), rather than as a liquid staking /restaking token (invested in DeFi).
