Why Most defi Is not real defi (and How @PortaltoBitcoin Fixes It)
Most defi today still relies on wrapped assets and centralized bridges which means users give up custody and trust assumptions sneak in quietly. It’s defi in name but not in spirit.
Portal flips this by letting you use your real Bitcoin in swaps directly, peer-to-peer without handing it to middlemen.
With bitscaler and HTLCs swaps happen off chain until confirmed keeping costs low while your btc stays yours until the swap is fully secure.
It’s the trustless foundation Satoshi would have wanted.
Let’s unpack how Portal is building the real DeFi future not just another hype wrapper.
Let me know if you want this turned into a clean, post-ready thread next.
