Launched in 2024, dlcBTC is a decentralized wrapped Bitcoin that aims to bring the security and control of Bitcoin to the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. Unlike traditional wrapped Bitcoin tokens, dlcBTC ensures that merchants—specifically institutions holding more than 10 BTC—maintain full ownership of their assets throughout the holding process.
How Does dlcBTC Work?
Merchants can mint dlcBTC by locking their Bitcoin in a secure, self-custodial manner using Discreet Log Contracts (DLCs). This method allows them to tap into DeFi opportunities on platforms like Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and other EVM-compatible chains, all while keeping complete control over their Bitcoin.
Once minted, all users can utilize dlcBTC in various DeFi activities such as staking, lending, borrowing, liquidity farming, and trading. This enables users to benefit from enhanced security and seamless cross-chain functionality.
Unique Features of dlcBTC
Supply of dlcBTC Tokens
As a wrapped token, the supply of dlcBTC is flexible and adjusts based on the demand for wrapping or unwrapping Bitcoin. The number of dlcBTC tokens in circulation matches the amount of Bitcoin locked in DLCs, maintaining a strict 1:1 peg with Bitcoin.
