ALEX is a decentralized finance protocol on Stacks that enables smart contract-powered Bitcoin-native yield strategies. Among its features are liquidity and staking pools that specifically support sBTC, a wrapped Bitcoin asset on Stacks.

What are ALEX sBTC Pools?

These pools allow users to deposit sBTC into automated market-making or yield-generating contracts. They're designed to:

• Provide sBTC liquidity for traders and protocols

• Distribute incentives to bootstrap Bitcoin-backed DeFi activity

In return, users may earn rewards in:

• BTC (when supported)

• ALEX tokens

• Other DeFi-native assets

The exact reward structure varies depending on the pool and current program terms.
