Set It and Earn: Automated veBTC Yield with Boar Finance
Bitcoin's greatest success story is its simplest: buy and hold. Earning yield on Mezo doesn't have to be any different.
When you lock BTC on Mezo, you get veBTC — and with veBTC comes real earning power. But optimizing your vote allocation every epoch, tracking fee data across pools, and manually compounding your rewards? That's work. Most people leave yield on the table because they don't have time to stay on top of it.
That's exactly the problem Boar Finance solves.
What Boar Finance does
Boar Finance is a non-custodial automated vault built on Mezo. You delegate your veBTC to Boar, and the protocol handles everything else: vote allocation, weekly rebalancing across Mezo Earn pools, and reward compounding — all without you lifting a finger.
You can deposit BTC on Mezo directly to Boar, or delegate your veBTC lock to Boar to manage the week-to-week voting process.
The stats from the first five live epochs speak for themselves:
- Average APR: ~7.7%
- Fee structure: 10% of earnings only — no principal fees
- Total BTC delegated: 10.6 BTC
- Custody: non-custodial, your assets stay yours
Boar rebalances voting weight every epoch based on live fee and emission data across the Mezo ecosystem to maximize BTC-denominated returns.
Boar on Matchbox
Boar Finance’s gauge is now live on Matchbox, Mezo's marketplace connecting veBTC and veMEZO holders. Boar is posting incentives each epoch to attract veMEZO votes to their gauge, meaning you can benefit when you deposit BTC with Boar or as a veMEZO holder.
For the Epoch ending 4/8/2026, Boar posted ~$2,222 in MEZO token incentives. veMEZO holders who pointed their veMEZO boost at the Boar gauge were able to share a portion of those incentives.
If you're a veMEZO holder, check out Boar's veBTC gauge to see any weekly incentives you can earn:
veBTC holders get hands-off compounding; veMEZO holders can earn by voting for Boar's gauge. You can find Boar directly on the Mezo Explore page or browse their gauge on Matchbox.
Who this is for
If you've locked BTC on Mezo and want to earn without managing your position week-to-week, Boar Finance is built for you. The vault is live on Mezo mainnet today with no waitlist.
