There was a time when moving Bitcoin across chains felt like hacking a maze
Bridges. Wrapped tokens. Trusted middlemen.
All just to simulate BTC in DeFi

Then @PortaltoBitcoin is changing that with atomic swaps on Bitcoin L1.

❌ No bridges.
❌ No wrapping.
❌ No custody.

Just real BTC, flowing freely between chains like it always should’ve

Portal isn’t a concept. It’s live. It’s liquid. It’s letting Bitcoin finally take its rightful place in DeFi.
