Threshold’s Bitcoin-Backed tBTC Storms Sui Network—Unleashing $500M Liquidity Tsunami

DeFi just got a heavyweight contender. Threshold Network’s Bitcoin-wrapped tBTC has officially landed on Sui—and it’s bringing half a billion dollars of liquidity to the party.

Why it matters: This isn’t just another bridge. tBTC’s arrival on Sui cracks open Bitcoin’s vault for a blockchain known for breakneck speeds and institutional flirtations. Suddenly, BTC holders can play in DeFi without selling—because who actually wants to realize taxable gains?

The mechanics: tBTC maintains Bitcoin’s scarcity while dodging its sluggishness. 1 BTC = 1 tBTC, fully collateralized. Now Sui’s ecosystem gets to play with crypto’s hardest asset—while TradFi bankers grumble about "unproductive" capital.

Bottom line: $500M in fresh liquidity is about to flood Sui’s DeFi pools. Watch for yield farmers to swarm like seagulls on a landfill buffet—just don’t expect them to share the alpha.
