Bitcoin has established itself as the number one store of value cryptocurrency but it lacks the programmability of EVM chains cbBTC you gives access to the best of both worlds: you can for example earn yield on your Bitcoin or borrow USDC against it

so whatβs the catch? unlike BTC which can be held without any intermediaries, cbBTC is custodied by Coinbase - you can think of it as USDC for Bitcoin to verify cbBTC is backed 1:1, there is a proof of reserves page: https://www.coinbase.com/en-fr/cbbtc/proof-of-reserves

in our tests, bridging BTC to tBTC on Base and then swapping tBTC for cbBTC cost a total of 0.22% in fees https://dashboard.threshold.network/tBTC/how-it-works
