yfarmx - 0
Coinbase has made a bold move into the world of decentralised finance (DeFi) with the launch of cbBTC, its own wrapped version of Bitcoin. This ERC-20 token, backed 1:1 by Bitcoin held in custody by Coinbase, allows Bitcoin holders to leverage their assets within the Ethereum and Base ecosystems. Coinbase’s entry into the wrapped Bitcoin market comes at a time of growing competition, particularly with BitGo, whose Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) has long dominated the space. With cbBTC, Coinbase aims to provide an alternative while expanding Bitcoin’s utility in DeFi.
