Sui is set to supercharge its Bitcoin DeFi (BTCfi) capabilities by integrating sBTC, the decentralized Bitcoin-backed asset developed by Stacks. This move allows Bitcoin holders to engage in DeFi activity such as lending, trading, and staking—without relying on centralized custodians—while maintaining Bitcoin's native trust model. The integration is a strategic leap for Sui, already hosting over 10% of its total TVL in Bitcoin-related assets. Sui’s object-based architecture, parallel execution engine, and support for the Move language make it an attractive Layer 1 for high-performance BTCfi protocols with low fees and high composability.
Decentralized Access to Bitcoin Liquidity: sBTC opens $1.6 trillion in Bitcoin liquidity to on-chain DeFi on Sui, preserving decentralization and native Bitcoin security.
High-Speed BTCfi Infrastructure: Sui’s architecture is optimized for composable, scalable BTC-backed DeFi apps, strengthening its role as a leading BTCfi platform.
