# The $BTCB Flywheel (Partner Overview)

1. ## The $BTCB Flywheel (Partner Overview)

   $BTCB is the flagship asset of the Bitcoin on Base ecosystem. In partnership with the BTCB team, BTCV uses a dedicated mining pool to generate real Bitcoin that is routed on-chain. This creates a Dual Asset Yield Engine where mining output generates value across two tokens rather than one.

   * **50% of mining revenue buys $BTCB and $cbBTC on the open market**
   * **$BTCB purchased is burned** — reducing circulating supply and reinforcing value
   * **Airdrops in $BTCV and $cbBTC create more activity** — more trading volume restarts the cycleThe $BTCB flywheel works because yield attracts participants, participants increase hashpower, hashpower increases yield, and buybacks and burns amplify token value. This is a positive sum loop, not a zero‟sum transfer.
