How to Buy Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC)Learn now
1. Project Introduction
Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) is an ERC-20 token backed 1:1 by Bitcoin (BTC), enabling Bitcoin to be used on the Ethereum blockchain with enhanced speed, transparency, and security. WBTC adopts a federated governance model maintained by multiple institutions and only charges standard blockchain transaction fees. Its ERC-20 compatibility allows seamless integration with DEXs, wallets, and dApps, greatly increasing BTC’s liquidity and usability in DeFi.
Summary: Before WBTC, Bitcoin could only be used in finance via centralized platforms. WBTC bridges BTC to Ethereum, enabling decentralized, efficient trading. Its federated model and ERC-20 standard enable broad adoption and high liquidity.
