Wrapped Bitcoin on Avalanche (WBTC)

Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum backed 1:1 by Bitcoin. It brings Bitcoin's liquidity into Ethereum's payments and DeFi, so Bitcoin value can move in Ethereum-native smart contracts. On Avalanche, WBTC moves as a ERC-20 token: transfers pay Avalanche network fees in AVAX and settle with the network's own finality. Every U.CASH rail that runs on Avalanche, from checkout to swap, supports WBTC natively on this chain.
