SmashFi and Sazmining turned idle BTC into fixed, sustainable BTC yield.
SmashFi had run every version of Bitcoin yield — derivatives, lending, staking incentives — and watched each one break or thin out. Mezzamine routed its capital into Sazmining's mining operations through risk-adjusted structured credit, turning idle Bitcoin into a fixed 9% BTC yield, paid in kind.
The first facility's 2 BTC of financing became 57 PH/s of deployed hashrate and mined more than the loan principal within four months — yield paid from real block production, not token incentives.

WBTC → BTC surges sevenfold.

Second Mezzamine loan goes active.
A new Mezzamine mining-loan program raised and deployed 5.00 BTC to its borrower and moved into active repayment, while net Solver yield held near its trailing anchor at 9.02% BTC APY.
Mining is very capital intensive — you need the machines, the hosting, the infrastructure in place before a customer produces any Bitcoin. Before, we were constrained by our own balance sheet. And in mining, timing matters.
