Make your BTC work for you: The journey of iBTC
A comprehensive guide to generating income using BTC. Learn how to safely participate in Decentralized Finance while maintaining the security of BTC and the core principles of Decentralization.
Introduction
BTC is the pioneer of a peer-to-peer cash system and the creator of the digital asset field. BTC has a market value of over $1.2 trillion, driven by its Decentralization characteristics and user self-custody capabilities. However, BTC still faces two major challenges: the inability to seamlessly integrate with Decentralized Finance protocols and the lack of native layer 1 Decentralized Finance functionality.
Enter iBTC, which is a groundbreaking solution that bridges these gaps. By leveraging cautious log contracts (DLC), iBTC provides one of the safest ways to connect BTC liquidity to the thriving Decentralized Finance ecosystem. This innovative approach allows institutional users to mint, burn, and self-custody iBTC, and verify the 1:1 support of BTC and iBTC using Chainlink's Proof of Reserves (PoR).
This series aims to unleash the true potential of Bitcoin, guiding you through the process of generating income without compromising security. We will explore how iBTC can participate in the dynamic world of Decentralized Finance while maintaining the strong security of the BTC network. Join us on a journey to transform dormant digital gold into productive and profitable assets.
Why use iBTC to use your BTC?
Security: iBTC is protected by reserve proof of Chainlink, the first layer blockchain of BTC, ensuring strong 1:1 backing.
Cross-chain compatibility: Currently integrated with Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base networks, with plans for further expansion.
Earnings Generation: Access established and verified Decentralized Finance protocols to avoid risks associated with new chains and untested applications.
