### **Supplying Assets to the Lending Pool**

Deposit Bitcoin (BTC) or BRC-20 tokens like TSNT, xUSD or SATS into the available lending pools to start supplying liquidity.&#x20;

Pick the assets you wish to supply, enter the amount or select your inscriptions, approve the deposit, and your supply will begin earning variable yield based on lending demand.

### **Understanding Variable Yield**

The APY yield earned on supplied BTC and BRC-20 varies are based on **lending pool utilization** - i.e. the ratio between total borrowed amount and total available liquidity in a pool.&#x20;

Higher utilization signals higher demand from borrowers relative to available liquidity. In response, the protocol automatically increases yield rate incentives to attract more lenders. During periods of low lending demand when pools are highly oversupplied, yields decrease gradually to maintain sustainability.
