BTCFi — Unlocking the untapped potential of Bitcoin
As the largest asset by market capitalization in the blockchain ecosystem, Bitcoin has long been regarded as a store of value. However, its practical applications and yield generation capabilities have been relatively limited. These limitations stem primarily from the scalability and scripting language constraints of the Bitcoin network, which hinder its ability to support complex decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.
Lately, Babylon protocol has challenged this status quo, bringing Bitcoin's security and liquidity into the DeFi world. This opens Bitcoin up to a wide range of financial services, such as lending and trading, enhancing Bitcoin's utility, laying the foundation for the rise of BTCFi, turning BTC Into a yield-bearing asset.
