June 2025 marked another step forward for WBTC as it expanded into new high-performance Layer 1 ecosystems. With liquidity now live on Solana, Bitcoin is becoming more accessible across decentralized infrastructure. In addition to network growth, WBTC continued to emphasize transparency and education. This included a reminder on how to verify its 1:1 BTC backing, as well as the latest post in the WBTC Decoded series, a simple introduction to what WBTC is and how it works.
Solana Liquidity Now Live on Raydium (June 5)
As of June 5, WBTC liquidity is live on Raydium, one of the leading decentralized exchanges on Solana. Users can now swap and participate in liquidity pools using WBTC within the Solana ecosystem.
This marks a significant step in extending Bitcoin liquidity into high-speed, low-fee environments. WBTC is also open to liquidity provider partnerships to further grow adoption and deepen market depth across Solana.
