Are you truly in control of your crypto, or just holding an  IOU "I Owe You"? 🤔

@PortaltoBitcoin is here to change how you move Bitcoin in DeFi, putting an end to the reliance on IOUs.

In the world of blockchain, "IOU" often refers to tokens or balances that represent an asset held by a third party. Think Wrapped BTC (WBTC) or your funds on a centralized exchange, you're essentially trusting someone else to hold your real assets.

This introduces counterparty risk and compromises sovereignty. When something breaks, your trust is exposed.
But what if you didn't need IOUs for cross-chain Bitcoin?

That's where @PortaltoBitcoin steps in. They enable native BTC swaps across chains using trustless atomic swaps, completely bypassing:

 🔹️ Wrapped assets

 🔹️ Centralized bridges

 🔹️ The need for third-party trust

No IOUs, just your real Bitcoin, moving freely. This is the future of truly decentralized finance.
