Wrapped Bitcoin is a tokenized version of Bitcoin, designed to run on the Ethereum network. Wrapped Bitcoin is backed by Bitcoin at a 1:1 ratio, and uses a network of automatically monitored custodians and marketplaces ensuring this peg is always maintained. Wrapped Bitcoin was founded from the joint effort of Bitgo, Kyber Network, and Ren, three well known, reputable organizations in the crypto sphere.Â
Wrapped Bitcoin’s token, WBTC, is always redeemable on a 1:1 basis for Bitcoin, and is supported across multiple protocols, such as Ethereum, Avalanche, Polygon, Solana, Fantom, Harmony, and Arbitrum.
