They can transfer and access BTC.b on the Core blockchain and immediately use it on Core dapps and DEXes. “By enabling access to a Bitcoin-backed asset and expanding on the existing symbiotic relationship Core has with Bitcoin, BTCB.b will allow for unique developments atop a scalable, EVM-compatible Core,” it said.
