Coinbase Wrapped BTC (cbBTC or CBBTC) is a tokenized version of Bitcoin, backed 1:1 by real BTC held in Coinbase custody. It enables Bitcoin holders to use their BTC within DeFi ecosystems across multiple chains like Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Solana. Users can wrap and unwrap BTC directly through Coinbase, while cbBTC can be traded on decentralized exchanges like Aerodrome and Uniswap. The token offers BTC-backed exposure with DeFi utility, allowing users to lend, borrow, provide liquidity, and participate in smart contracts, though it inherits centralized custody risk.
