In the ever-evolving blockchain landscape, bridging traditional assets with DeFi ecosystems has become revolutionary, and TON is making bold strides to lead the way. Recently, we introduced TON Teleport BTC, a decentralized bridge allowing for the seamless transfer of BTC with TON’s network. This bridge enables BTC holders to leverage their assets within TON’s DeFi ecosystem, unlocking new possibilities, like yield farming, using Bitcoin as collateral. For BTC enthusiasts, it’s the first step in transforming dormant assets into opportunities for growth.

Bridging Bitcoin to TON: A Practical Evolution

TON has set a clear vision: to connect cryptocurrencies with real-world practicalities. Following the successful integration of native USDt, TON is now expanding its horizon with TON Teleport BTC. This bridge brings Bitcoin, the world’s most famous, well established, and dominant cryptocurrency into TON’s ecosystem, giving BTC holders new opportunities to explore DeFi applications, and participate in yield generation, staking, and more.

From Wallets to the World of DeFi

Traditionally, BTC is locked away in wallets, sitting idle, while holders wait for its value to appreciate. But with TON Teleport BTC, users gain access to a suite of DeFi tools that make Bitcoin an active participant. The BTC transferred into the TON Network transforms into tgBTC, a synthetic Bitcoin equivalent, through a Peg-in process. The tgBTC will maintain a 1:1 backing with BTC, meaning it’s entirely redeemable for Bitcoin wherever the user wants to Peg-out back to the BTC blockchain. This seamless back-and-forth is enabled by trustless, decentralized, and automated smart contracts, eliminating the need for reliance on centralized control.

How TON Teleport BTC Works

TON Teleport BTC is designed to provide a secure, transparent, and decentralized experience:

• Peg-in process: BTC holders move their Bitcoin into the TON Network. Where it’s converted to tgBTC, a token that fully represents BTC within the TON ecosystem.
• Access to DeFi: Once teleported, tgBTC can be utilized in yield farming, lending, and other DeFi activities. Bringing active utility to otherwise dormant BTC assets.
• Redeem Anytime: When users decide to transfer back to Bitcoin, they simply Peg-out, converting their tgBTC back to BTC with ease and confidence.

The $10 billion Opportunity

TON Teleport BTC signals a future where cryptocurrency can be a fully active participant in the financial ecosystem, moving beyond storage to become a versatile asset. As BTC holders join the TON Network, they’re not just gaining access to new tools—they’re joining a movement to make crypto practical, accessible, and integrated into daily life.

With a $10 billion market cap for Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), a substantial 40% of which is actively used in DeFi, BTC’s potential is clearer than ever. TON Teleport BTC allows Bitcoin holders to gain exposure to DeFi without relying on centralized bridges, unlocking more opportunities to HODL, earn, and grow their holdings within a secure and decentralized network.

The Future of Decentralized Finance

TON Teleport BTC advances TON and Bitcoin by enabling secure, trustless cross-chain transactions, verified on the TON Blockchain without third-party involvement. This solution enhances Bitcoin's scalability and interoperability, offering a transparent, reliable framework for cross-chain transactions.
