Unlocking corporate bitcoin as productive capital
Traditionally, Bitcoin is held as a non-yielding asset, providing no interest, dividends, or staking rewards. The new partnership leverages Solv’s universal Bitcoin-backed wrapper to enable treasury firms to earn annual yields ranging from 4% to 12%. Solv generates this yield through lending markets, liquidity provisioning to automated market maker (AMM) pools, and structured staking programs, turning idle Bitcoin into productive capital.
Kensuke Amo, CEO of Animoca Brands Japan, emphasized the strategic goal:
“Through this collaboration, we aim to create an environment where companies can not only hold Bitcoin as a financial asset but also leverage it as a new revenue engine that drives corporate growth.”
The platform is specifically designed to serve institutions seeking compliant, efficient ways to maximize the utility of their crypto holdings.
Solv’s infrastructure and institutional expertise drive expansion
Ryan Chow, co-founder and CEO of Solv, highlighted the protocol’s proven track record:
“Bitcoin can serve as productive capital. Our next phase is delivering secure, compliant, and high-yield treasury solutions to Japan’s most forward-thinking corporations.”
Solv Protocol currently manages over $2.8 billion in assets and is backed by notable investors, including Binance Labs and Blockchain Capital.
By combining Animoca Brands’ institutional network with Solv’s DeFi infrastructure, the initiative represents a significant step toward institutional adoption of Bitcoin as an active financial instrument, rather than a static treasury asset. The platform is expected to reshape corporate crypto strategy in Japan by offering both security and profitability in a single integrated solution.
Meanwhile, Animoca Brands, in partnership with Chess.com, announced on November 13 the integration of the $CHECK token, establishing it as the native utility token for the game’s growing ecosystem.

The Shopify Stock Rally Isn't Done: Chart of the Week -- Barrons.com
By Doug Busch Shopify is no longer a pandemic-era growth story that simply failed to slow down. It is compounding at a pace few software platforms its size still manage. In the second quarter of 2026, sales on its platform rose 32%. That was the fifth straight quarter of growth exceeding 30%. Merchants are also using more of Shopify's own tools, from payments to Shop Pay, and new channels like AI shopping agents are starting to increase demand. The simple bull case is that the stock already commands a huge share of independent online commerce, and that position should become more valuable as more buying moves through its checkout. A rule of market mechanics is that the vast majority of an individual security's gain is driven by its underlying sector. Within technology, software has staged a robust recovery, joining semiconductors to power the broader sector higher. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF has maintained an upward trajectory since its mid-April lows, though the advance from $74 to $112 has been choppy as bulls repeatedly stepped in to defend when necessary. Breadth across large-cap software has expanded significantly, with 24 constituents surging over 20% over the past three months. During that same three-month window, Shopify generated outstanding relative strength, advancing 36%, more than doubling the IGV's 17% gain over the same period. Expect the stock's outperformance to persist as software momentum broadens. Let's examine the daily and monthly charts to outline the technical drivers behind this thesis. Looking at the daily chart, the ratio chart against the IGV shows persistent outperformance extending back to mid-May. The stock is riding an eight-session winning streak, during which price action cleared a double-bottom-with-handle pivot at $151.39. Within this broader base, the stock recorded a bullish golden cross in late August and successfully filled its Sept. 10 price gap, tracing back to its Aug. 4 session, the day before a powerful earnings reaction sent the stock surging 17% hi
