I woke up to see 5.6 BTC in total collateral in our public beta. That 2 BTC multi-draw last night didn’t let me sleep, in a good way.

We’re in business!

Still early, but these are the signals that matter. Grateful to the team, early users, and everyone backing us.

A few patterns already:

  • Users start small, then scale up within days

  • Credit lines are getting reused, not one-time usage

  • Short-term positions → tight feedback loops

The playbook is becoming clear: try → understand → come back

1. Solving the cold start

We’re rolling out an intent-based borrow ↔ liquidity signaling system:

  • Borrowers submit requests → real demand signals

  • LPs see utilization → provide liquidity with context

On top of that, we want to set a new standard: show exactly where yield comes from and make it verifiable.

2. New Surge.Credit website

Redesigned and shipping soon.

  • Clear breakdown of how Borrow, Earn, and Integrations work

  • Honest comparison with alternatives

Let users decide.

3. Transparency first

While we upgrade the Earn dashboard, our Dune dashboard is live: real data, no abstraction.

  • Unilateral Exit / Sovereign Recovery docs (next)

  • Perpetual credit line extensions (post Vegas)

  • Scale to 7-figure TVL

  • Publish DCN security + transparency framework

Surge is live. 5+ BTC collateral. Early, but working.

If you:

  • Want yield on stablecoins

  • Want liquidity without selling Bitcoin

  • Want to build or integrate

Let’s talk.

We’re building this in the open.
