Hermetica issues USDh and its staking counterpart sUSDh natively on Bitcoin L1 via Runes and on the Stacks L2 via Clarity smart contracts, with yield generated through a delta-neutral strategy using short perpetual-futures positions against Bitcoin collateral. Bitcoin collateral is held through Copper ClearLoop and Ceffu MirrorX, with monthly custodian attestations, and smart contracts have been audited by Clarity Alliance and Strata Labs. Hermetica also maintains a Reserve Fund to cover negative funding rates and exchange failures. In April 2026, Hermetica launched hBTC, a self-custodial Bitcoin yield vault built on Stacks.
Hermetica has demonstrated measurable traction: in 2025, USDh total value locked grew more than 400%, the strategy was positive on 84% of days, and the annualized return reached 10.94%.
