Bitcoin is a tool for empowering individuals and communities to take ownership of their money and financial data. It provides self-sovereignty and economic freedom for millions of people around the world.

That’s why we’re working on sBTC, a 1:1 bitcoin-backed programmable asset that will enable users to put their Bitcoin to work in a secure and decentralized way.
