BTCK > @Lombard_Finance 's newest asset built just for the Katana ecosystem.

You might ask: Wait, isn’t there already $LBTC? Why do we need $BTCK?

Here’s the difference:
> $BTCK is a decentralized wrapped BTC, issued by Lombard specifically for @katana .
> Unlike $LBTC, $BTCK doesn’t generate staking yield.
What can you actually do with BTCK? Pretty much everything you’d expect:
– Provide liquidity
– Use it as collateral
– Yield farm across Katana
– Tap into the whole DeFi ecosystem on the yield chain
How it works is simple:
> Deposit your BTC into Lombard
> Get BTCK 1:1
> Deploy BTCK in Katana for DeFi strategies

The idea behind BTCK is targeted:
More BTC minted as BTCK > More DeFi action on Katana > More value flowing back into Lombard > Higher demand for BTCK itself
In short, $BTCK unlocks your BTC liquidity directly for Katana helping both the chain and Lombard’s ecosystem grow together.
