November has been another exciting month for WBTC as we continue to extend Bitcoin liquidity and DeFi opportunities across multiple blockchains. With integrations on TRON, Hedera and Monad, guides on Solana and Aptos, and incentives on Starknet, users now have more ways than ever to bring their Bitcoin into the ecosystem and put it to work.

The broader Bitcoin market also saw sharp volatility this month. After reaching highs near $126K in October, Bitcoin dropped below $86K in late November before rebounding back toward the $86K to $88K range. That drop appears to be driven by factors such as macroeconomic fear and uncertainty, rising risk-off sentiment, and institutional outflows.

Getting Native WBTC on Solana Is More Accessible Now

Users can get WBTC or deposit WBTC on exchanges like HTX and transfer it to wallets such as Phantom, Guarda, or TokenPocket.

By the way, HTX recognizes WBTC as BTC directly and conversion fees are waived for BTC to WBTC swaps till further notice.

Starknet Incentives

Starknet has emerged as another exciting frontier for WBTC. WBTC is live on Starknet, and several DeFi protocols are providing incentives to users who deposit or trade WBTC:

• Ekubo Protocol - Provide WBTC liquidity in eligible pools and earn rewards.

• Vesu - Deposit WBTC to earn yield or borrow stablecoins with boosted rewards.

• Opus Money - An intent-based yield optimizer that automatically allocates WBTC across strategies.

• Uncap Finance - Deposit WBTC as collateral to mint USDU and earn incentives.

These integrations demonstrate WBTC’s growing influence beyond Ethereum, bringing Bitcoin liquidity to a high-throughput L2 network where users can utilize their WBTC.

Expanding WBTC Access on TRON

TRON’s ecosystem also saw significant WBTC adoption this month. Native WBTC is now tradable on Sunpump, one of the DEXs within the TRON ecosystem, adding ~$10M to WBTC’s market cap.

WBTC also went live on JustLend, TRON’s largest lending market, allowing users to supply and borrow WBTC immediately. This addition is critical for TRON’s ecosystem because it provides a trusted, widely recognized Bitcoin asset that can support lending, borrowing, and yield opportunities in DeFi. Furthermore, deposits and withdrawals of native WBTC on TRON are now live via HTX, enabling users to move assets between centralized and decentralized environments smoothly.

Native WBTC on Solana Now Supported On Orca

On Solana, native WBTC pools on Orca are now available, giving users direct access to trading and liquidity opportunities. Native WBTC has landed on Solana for a while and the team has been working with protocols to expand its use case. Orca is the latest addition on Solana to support it. Native WBTC pools on Orca are now available, offering opportunities to provide liquidity in an area that is still early in adoption.

It’s Not Too Difficult To Get On Aptos

Follow this step-by-step video guide on how to move WBTC into the Aptos ecosystem and start using it in DeFi. The guide covers acquiring WBTC, transferring it to a compatible wallet, bridging via Stargate Finance, and putting it to work by lending on Aries or Echelon or trading on AMMs like Panora, Thala, and Hyperion.

Institutional-Grade Liquidity on Hedera

WBTC landed on Hedera this month. Hedera’s Hashgraph Consensus algorithm provides near-instant transaction finality, high throughput, and low, predictable fees, making it an ideal environment for WBTC-based applications. Initial pools are live on SaucerSwap, giving users the ability to trade and provide liquidity efficiently.

Monad Integration: DeFi Activity Surges

WBTC is now live on Monad through LayerZero, marking a significant milestone for WBTC.

Monad, a highly anticipated network launch on 24th November, has quickly become a hub for decentralized applications, and WBTC’s integration is a key part of its ecosystem from day one. 

In just the first 48 hours after launch, over 70,000 WBTC transactions were completed on Monad, demonstrating strong user demand for reliable Bitcoin assets. By providing a trusted Bitcoin asset, WBTC simplifies access to Bitcoin exposure and supports the rapid growth of DeFi applications within the Monad ecosystem.
