1/ BTC wrappers are becoming critical market infrastructure. But most rely on a single custodian, convenient until confidence breaks. tBTC takes the opposite approach: decentralized custody, native redemptions, and immediate composability across chains. 🧵

2/ A 51/100 rotating signer set replaces the custodian stack. No freeze switches, no solvency assumptions, no single point of failure. For institutions deploying size, this removes the exact risk surface that WBTC and cbBTC can’t escape.

3/ Distribution is the moat. tBTC is already live on 10+ chains with liquidity on Aave, Curve, Base, Sui, Starknet, and L2s. One mint, multichain routing, and direct allocation into credit, LP, or basis strategies, all verifiable onchain.

4/ BTC ownership is consolidating: - ETFs (~7%) - Governments (~2–3%) - Corporates (~6–7%) These holders need operational clarity and programmable utility. Idle BTC doesn’t scale, trust-minimized collateral does.

5/ Threshold’s model streamlines the workflow: gasless minting to target venues, native redemptions back to Bitcoin mainnet, and standardized execution across ecosystems. It turns passive exposure into deployable, compliant onchain collateral.

6/ The market is moving toward a simple rule: decentralization where it matters, efficiency where it counts. As wrappers evolve from static IOUs to productive assets, tBTC is positioned to become the neutral BTC rail institutions can trust at scale.
