Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), the tokenized version of Bitcoin used in DeFi (decentralized finance), has announced its expanded integration across several blockchain networks and protocols.
This expansion is part of an effort to improve cross-chain functionality and support broader usage of Bitcoin within the DeFi ecosystem.
By increasing compatibility with high-performance networks, WBTC continues to serve as a standardized vehicle for representing Bitcoin across diverse DApps (decentralized applications).
Launched in early 2019, WBTC enables Bitcoin holders to access DApps with a fully custodied, verifiable one-to-one token.
Today, WBTC represents approximately $14.5 billion in market capitalization, offering some of the deepest liquidity across DeFi markets.
Building on its recent native launch on Solana, WBTC continues to expand into additional chains, enabling developers and users to transact Bitcoin with lower costs and higher efficiency.
Its design emphasizes institutional-grade custody, transparency and compatibility across ecosystems.
By anchoring Bitcoin in the multichain economy, WBTC extends the utility of the world’s largest digital asset and sets a benchmark for tokenized assets at scale.
Protocols engaging with WBTC this season
WBTC is integrated across hundreds of protocols in DeFi, powering exchanges, lending, staking and cross-chain applications.
During the ‘new Bitcoin era’ season, a number of protocols are introducing opportunities where WBTC plays a role, including Tapp Exchange, Hyperion, NAVI protocol, Volo, Thala, Echelon, Shadow Exchange, Beefy, PancakeSwap, Sonic Labs, TeleSwap, Hemi, Renzo Protocol, Structured, Saros, Concrete and Starknet.
WBTC is the new Bitcoin standard. A singular identity for Bitcoin across multiple chains.
It brings Bitcoin into environments where speed, capital efficiency and scale are essential, while maintaining fidelity to Bitcoin’s original principles. There is no second.
WBTC stands alone in its role, trusted, verifiable and engineered for a multichain world.

Participation in DeFi protocols carries risks, and users should conduct their own research before engaging with any DeFi protocols.
