> **Visual Note:** A promotional graphic for Stacks' "90-Day DeFi Incentive Program" starting at Bitcoin block 966,350, featuring the Stacks logo and stylized coin icons representing BTC and USDCx, with Zest Protocol and Bitflow partner branding at the bottom—visually reinforcing the program's focus on Bitcoin and stablecoin DeFi rewards.

> **Visual Note:** The image highlights Ethereum's native yield advantage over Bitcoin, showing that ~32.5% of ETH is staked for a ~2% real yield, with Lido's liquid staking (stETH) making up ~21% of staked ETH. The accompanying chart titled "$ETH Real Yield" traces this yield from Jan '25 to Jul '26, illustrating Ethereum's layered financial primitives that convert idle ETH into working capital—a stark contrast to BTC, which the post notes lacks any native yield for pure price exposure.  

> 
> ""A BTC holder today primarily holds the asset for pure price exposure, lacking access to any native, underlying yield that naturally accrues value over time.""

It visually reinforces the post's announcement that native BTC staking is launching on Xverse via Stacks, with the block height marking the official start of the Genesis Bond where users can lock their own Bitcoin to earn BTC rewards.
