tBTC is a decentralized solution that lets you use Bitcoin's value in Ethereum-based applications, like borrowing, lending, and minting stablecoins. This decentralized solution lets you use your BTC for lending, borrowing, and stablecoin minting without centralized intermediaries. Experience secure and permissionless Bitcoin integration with Ethereum DeFi. Unlike centralized models that require a third-party intermediary, tBTC is a wrapped Bitcoin, backed 1:1 by main-net BTC, preserving Bitcoin's secure and permissionless nature.
You can view, swap, send and receive tBTC tokens directly from your MEW Wallet. To receive your tBTC tokens you can send them to your public wallet address. You can then view them in your MEW Wallet by selecting your wallet and selecting the token from the tokens list. You should see the tBTC token information page. You can send your tBTC tokens in your MEW Wallet by clicking the ‘Send’ button and entering the recipient’s wallet address. To swap your tBTC tokens, you can click the ‘Swap’ button and choose which tokens you want to swap to. However, if the ‘Swap’ button is not active you will need to use a DEX to swap your tokens.
