FBTC Token

The FBTC token contract is an essential component of the FBTC protocol, designed to facilitate the seamless transfer and management of Bitcoin (BTC) across multiple blockchain networks.

Key Features

  • Cross-Chain Interoperability: The FBTC token can be transferred across different blockchain networks, facilitating interoperability and liquidity.

  • Minting and Burning: Users can mint FBTC tokens by depositing BTC and burn FBTC tokens to redeem BTC, ensuring a 1:1 peg between FBTC and BTC.

  • Security: The contract employs advanced security measures, including Multi-Party Computation (MPC) and Threshold Signature Schemes (TSS), to protect user assets.

  • Governance: The FBTC token contract is governed by a decentralized community, allowing for transparent decision-making and protocol upgrades.

Workflow

  1. Minting: Users deposit BTC into a specified address. Once the deposit is confirmed, the corresponding amount of FBTC is minted and credited to the user's account.

  2. Transferring: Users can transfer FBTC tokens across different blockchain networks, leveraging the protocol's cross-chain interoperability features.

  3. Burning: Users initiate a burn request to redeem their BTC. The equivalent amount of FBTC is burned, and the BTC is transferred to the user's specified address.

Use Cases

  • DeFi Applications: Users can use FBTC in various DeFi platforms for lending, borrowing, yield farming, and other financial activities.

  • Cross-Chain Transfers: Facilitates the movement of BTC across different blockchain networks without relying on centralized exchanges.

  • Enhanced Security: Provides a secure and decentralized way to manage BTC holdings.
