Overview

Solv enters its next stage of growth with the launch of $vSOLV, a time-locked version of $SOLV designed to reward long-term participation in the Solv ecosystem.

From September 17, 2025, to March 17, 2026, users can earn $vSOLV by engaging in Solv’s Bitcoin Finance markets like:

  • borrowing USDC with SolvBTC
  • holding Pendle PT/YT assets
  • trading SolvBTC.BNB

As part of a buyback program, $vSOLV can be redeemed for $SOLV at a 1:1 ratio, with 2.5% of the $SOLV token supply allocated to this initiative.


$vSOLV offers powerful utilities, including staking benefits, fee discounts, airdrop multipliers, governance power, and early access to new Solv products, making it a low-risk, high-reward opportunity for ecosystem participants.

Program Structure and Reward Claims

  • Duration: The program runs from September 17, 2025, to March 17, 2026 (6 months).
  • Structure: Multiple events, typically lasting one month each, reward users for specific interactions with Solv assets, such as trading SolvBTC.BNB, staking SolvBTC, or holding Pendle PT/YT tokens.
  • Claiming Rewards:
    • After each event, users can claim their $vSOLV rewards via a dedicated Claim $vSOLV page on the Solv Foundation website.
    • Claims are available until June 17, 2026, at 9:00 UTC. Unclaimed tokens will be redirected to the Community Rewards & DAO Treasury.
  • Swapping $vSOLV to $SOLV:
    • At the program’s end March 17, 2026, users can swap $vSOLV for $SOLV at a 1:1 ratio with no penalty.
    • Early swaps are allowed but incur a swap ratio (a percentage of tokens burned), which decreases linearly over time. See the table below for details..
  • Unlock Curve: The swap ratio decreases daily over 180 days, starting from September 17, 2025. An interactive chart on the Solv Foundation website will display the real-time swap ratio (1 – Unlock %) for any given date.

The Future with $vSOLV

Driving Growth with $vSOLV: $vSOLV is the time-locked version of $SOLV, Some possible directions the Solv Foundation is considering to drive growth with $vSOLV, designed to offer committed holders more ways to participate in the ecosystem are as follows:

  • Boost Points: Accumulate points that factor into future rewards.
  • Fee Benefits: Access reduced costs when using Solv products.
  • Early Access: Get priority entry into new product rollouts.
  • Enhanced Utility: Staking makes your $SOLV more functional inside Solv.
  • Guaranteed Conversion: Swap $vSOLV for $SOLV at a 1:1 rate by Mar 17, 2026. Early redemptions unlock gradually (e.g., 15% in Month 1, scaling to 100% by Month 6), while the full value remains preserved.
 

Ecosystem Utility: Holding $vSOLV provides priority consideration for whitelisting upcoming Solv products (such as RWA Vaults integrated with Apollo, Franklin Templeton, Circle, Ant Group) and governance participation through DAO voting power.

Accessible Participation: Earn $vSOLV through campaigns like trading SolvBTC.BNB (the largest BTC market on Pendle) or engaging with Pendle PT/YT. No upfront capital commitment is required, participation in the ecosystem is enough to qualify.

Understanding $vSOLV → $SOLV Burn Dynamics

The buyback program includes a swap ratio to promote long-term holding and ecosystem sustainability. When swapping $vSOLV for $SOLV:

  • The swap ratio determines the percentage of tokens burned versus those received as $SOLV.
  • A high swap ratio means more tokens are burned, and fewer $SOLV are received.
  • A low swap ratio means fewer tokens are burned, and more $SOLV are received.
  • The swap ratio starts high to encourage holding until the program’s end but decreases linearly over 180 days, making early swaps less costly as time progresses.

The table below illustrates the swap ratio and example outcomes for swapping $vSOLV to $SOLV:

Note: The swap ratio updates daily. Check the interactive chart on the Solv Foundation website for real-time details.

Campaign 1: SolvBTC.BNB Pendle PT/YT Trading Campaign

Since its launch in April 2025, SolvBTC.BNB has become the largest BTC market on Pendle, empowering BTC holders to earn BNB-native yields through staking, Binance Launchpools, Megadrops, and HODLER rewards with a single click.

To celebrate this milestone, we’re excited to introduce the SolvBTC.BNB PT/YT Trading Campaign! This campaign features two events to reward both holders and active traders with $vSOLV tokens.

Event 1: PT/YT Fee Rebate

 

Rewards:

  • Earn 2x trading fee rebates in $vSOLV for buying and holding SolvBTC.BNB PT or YT.
  • Rewards distributed weekly (e.g., Week 1 rewards distributed by end of Week 2).

Rules:

  • Purchase: Buy SolvBTC.BNB PT or YT on Pendle (BNB Chain) at any time during the campaign period.
    • Start Date: 17 September, 2025.
    • End Date: To be announced.
  • Holding Requirement: Hold the purchased PT or YT for at least 7 days without selling or transferring any amount. If any transfer occurs within 7 days, all purchases from that period lose eligibility.
  • Example:
    • Day 1: Buy 10 PT/YT. Day 3: Buy 20 PT/YT.
    • If you transfer any amount on Day 5, both Day 1 and Day 3 purchases are disqualified.
    • If you transfer on Day 9, only Day 1 purchases remain eligible; Day 3 purchases are disqualified.
  • Fee Calculation: At the end of the campaign period, eligible users’ total trading fees are calculated using the formula:
    • Trading Fee = (Trade Size × Token Price × (Remaining Maturity / 365) × 0.03%)
      • Trading Size: Number of PT or YT purchased.
      • Token Price: Price of the PT.
  • Remaining Maturity: Remaining duration of the PT or YT (in days).
  • Reward Calculation:
    • $vSOLV rewards = (Eligible trading fees × 2) ÷ Average $SOLV price.
    • The average $SOLV price is calculated based on the 7-day average price prior to the settlement date.
    • Pro-Rata Distribution: If total rewards exceed the $20,000 weekly rewards, each user’s reward is calculated as:
  • (User’s trading fees / Total trading fees of all eligible users) × $20,000.
  • Maximum Rewards: The total reward pool for this event is capped at $20,000 per week.
