✍️ As a long-term BTC holder, I recently saw @Starknet's roadmap on BTC DeFi, and I can talk about it.
Don't always think that Starknet is just an ETH expansion, that pattern is small. Now that Ming Pai wants to engage in WBTC and cross-chain liquidity, isn't this the work of diverting the big water of the BTC ecosystem to Ethereum?
In particular, its deep integration of WBTC and its innovative cross-chain liquidity strategy are worthy of in-depth research and consideration by long-term BTC holders.
Its goal seems to be not simply to pursue TVL book growth, but to actively and effectively solve the long-term liquidity bottleneck faced by BTC in the DeFi field through its unique technology stack, which is undoubtedly a very positive event for the sustainable development of the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem.
In addition, the financing amount exceeded $273 million, with a valuation of $8 billion, which is no joke in terms of capital strength. Starknet itself has a market capitalization of $530 million, and 420 million $STRK is also pledged, which is behind the real user trust and ecological activity.
Not to mention that their ecological projects have reached 200+ and the average daily transaction volume has stabilized at 538,000, which means that the entire ecosystem is running at high speed and there are many participants.
In the future, the integration of BTC and ETH, Starknet's move may really become a key milestone. It is not only seeking breakthroughs in technology, but also turning this vision into reality step by step through specific data and ecological construction.
The community has spoken.
SNIP-31 is officially ratified. Bitcoin staking is coming to Starknet, with the following parameters:
- BTC staking power weight set at 0.25, giving BTC up to 25% influence in consensus power, with the rest allocated to STRK
- WBTC, LBTC, tBTC, and SolvBTC approved for staking on Starknet
- Governance rules for approving new BTC wrappers are now set
The official launch will take place in the coming weeks.
