What is Wrapped BTC (WBTC)?
Wrapped bitcoin (WBTC) est un jeton basé sur Ethereum qui assure l’interopérabilité entre Bitcoin et Ethereum, permettant aux détenteurs de Bitcoin de participer à l’écosystème croissant des applications DeFi d’Ethereum. Autrement dit, le WBTC permet de représenter le Bitcoin sur le réseau Ethereum. Un jeton ERC-20 est conçu pour imiter la valeur du Bitcoin afin d’être facilement traçable et utilisable sur Ethereum. Vous pouvez acheter et vendre des WBTC en échange de n’importe quelle grande cryptomonnaie, comme BTC, ETH et XRP ou une monnaie traditionnelle comme le dollar canadien, le dollar américain et l’euro. L’échange de cryptomonnaies s’apparente à un échange de devises traditionnelles - vous échangez des WBTC contre des BTC de la même manière que vous échangez des CAD contre des USD. Vous pouvez également échanger des WBTC contre des CAD en fonction du cours des WBTC. Pour savoir comment acheter du Wrapped Bitcoin/WBTC, faites défiler la page.
