About
Mezo provides a line of credit backed by Bitcoin collateral, allowing users to mint MUSD, a stablecoin 100% backed by Bitcoin reserves and pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar. Users can also earn yield on their Bitcoin through vaults and liquidity pools, and manage their portfolio of BTC, MUSD, and other onchain assets from a single interface. Mezo also offers Mezo Prime, an institutional product built in collaboration with Anchorage Digital that provides segregated custody, onchain yield, and fixed-rate BTC-backed lending. The platform is built by Thesis, a team also behind tBTC, Fold, and Taho.
