- Jiuzi commits up to $1 billion and 10,000 BTC to SOLV’s DeFi yield platform.
- The partnership bridges TradFi compliance with DeFi Bitcoin finance.
- JZXN shares jumped more than 17% following the strategic announcement.
Jiuzi Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: JZXN) has announced a major Bitcoin finance initiative through a strategic partnership with the SOLV Foundation, a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform overseeing over $2.8 billion in total value locked.
The move positions Jiuzi among the few Nasdaq-listed companies actively integrating traditional finance (TradFi) compliance with DeFi to deliver regulated, yield-generating Bitcoin products for institutional investors.
Commitment of 10,000 Bitcoin to SOLV’s flagship SolvBTC.BNB vault
Under the partnership, Jiuzi will allocate up to $1 billion from its digital asset plan into blockchain products focused on Bitcoin staking and yield generation.
A central element of the strategy is a commitment of up to 10,000 Bitcoin to SOLV’s flagship SolvBTC.BNB vault on the BNB Chain — one of the ecosystem’s largest Bitcoin yield platforms.
Assets will be protected by regulated third-party custodians and audited via Chainlink’s proof-of-reserve system to ensure transparency and institutional-grade security.
This represents a landmark development for Jiuzi Holdings, known primarily for its new energy vehicle infrastructure business in China.
The company has been steadily diversifying into blockchain finance, and the SOLV Foundation partnership signals a deeper commitment to positioning Bitcoin as an income-generating, yield-bearing asset rather than solely a passive store of value.
Building a compliant bridge between TradFi and DeFi
Jiuzi and SOLV emphasize that the partnership will operate fully in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations and Nasdaq listing standards.
A joint governance committee made up of senior representatives from both organizations will be established to develop and oversee Bitcoin-focused DeFi initiatives.
The committee will guide expansion of SolvBTC deployments to other blockchain networks, including Solana and Base.
By combining Jiuzi’s regulatory standing and institutional access with SOLV’s on-chain expertise, the partnership aims to create a secure, transparent, and scalable framework for Bitcoin-based financial products.
Both companies view the collaboration as a model for how regulated capital can safely participate in decentralized yield markets.
Optimizing treasury strategy through blockchain
Alongside yield products, Jiuzi is anchoring its corporate treasury around Bitcoin as a primary digital asset.
The company’s Bitcoin holdings, including those of its subsidiaries, will be custodied on SOLV’s platform and managed under the oversight of approved custodians.
This approach is designed to maximize capital efficiency while maintaining visibility and accountability through blockchain-based auditing tools.
Jiuzi Holdings CEO Li Tao described the partnership as “a transformative step forward” that strengthens the company’s Bitcoin vault strategy and aligns it with one of the most advanced ecosystems for Bitcoin liquidity and staking.
SOLV protocol founder Ryan Chow added that the partnership pairs Jiuzi’s regulatory posture with SOLV’s expertise in managing large-scale Bitcoin assets, paving the way for secure institutional capital flows into DeFi.
The announcement triggered a sharp rally in Jiuzi’s stock, which rose significantly in trading after the news.
Investors reacted positively to the company’s expansion into digital asset finance, recognizing Jiuzi’s potential to play a central role in institutional adoption of Bitcoin.
