Stacks has announced a 90-day incentive program that will distribute a total of 3 BTC to users who borrow the stablecoin USDCx or provide liquidity. Payouts are expected to begin on or around September 10 and will be made in monthly installments over three months. Zest Protocol is responsible for the lending side, while Bitflow handles liquidity mining. Participants can borrow USDCx by pledging sBTC or STX as collateral. The rewards are paid in bitcoin rather than Stacks' native token, a structure intended to avoid sell pressure from distributed reward tokens. USDCx is built on Circle's xReserve infrastructure and was launched in December 2025. The news was reported by CryptoBriefing.
Stacks is rolling out a 90-day incentive program that will pay bitcoin rewards to people who borrow the stablecoin USDCx or provide liquidity. The distribution should begin on or around September 10, and the plan is to pay a total of 3 BTC in monthly installments across three months.
Zest Protocol is running the lending side of the program. Bitflow, meanwhile, is in charge of the liquidity-mining side. Users can borrow USDCx by posting sBTC or STX as collateral.
The rewards are being paid in bitcoin, not Stacks' native token. The idea is simple: avoid the sell pressure that often shows up after reward tokens are handed out.
USDCx runs on Circle's xReserve infrastructure and launched in December 2025. CryptoBriefing reported the information.
