c-44 and tBTC are about to bring much more into Asia...and the same applies to L2s such as c-46 and c-48.
South Korea (one of the largest Asian markets) has officially removed a 9-year ban that prevented companies from buying cryptocurrencies, opening the door for large-scale institutional exposure to Bitcoin.
This is a significant shift. Corporations can now go beyond retail-style participation and begin allocating Bitcoin at the balance sheet level.
Keeping BTC is just the first step.
Institutions not only want exposure, they want capital efficiency, liquidity, and optionality. This requires Bitcoin to move safely into environments where execution happens.
This is where tBTC comes in.
The Threshold allows institutions to:
Move native Bitcoin to DeFi without custodians
Avoid governance risk and synthetic exposure
Mint on supported networks and redeem directly back to BTC
Keep Bitcoin sovereign while making it productive
As more companies begin to acquire Bitcoin, the true unlocking is not just accumulation, it's about its activation.
tBTC is the bridge that enables institutional BTC to explore DeFi responsibly, without compromising Bitcoin's fundamental principles.
Institutional adoption does not end with the purchase of Bitcoin.
It accelerates when Bitcoin can finally do more. #ALTESEASSON #defi
