Kraken 推出 Kraken Wrapped Bitcoin (kBTC) 代币，以提高比特币在去中心化应用程序中的实用性

10 月 17 日，Kraken 推出了 Kraken Wrapped Bitcoin (kBTC)，这是一种新的 ERC-20 代币，旨在提高比特币在去中心化应用程序中的实用性

Kraken has introduced Kraken Wrapped Bitcoin (kBTC), a new ERC-20 token designed to enhance Bitcoin's usability across decentralized applications (dApps) on networks like Ethereum and OP Mainnet. Backed 1:1 by Bitcoin and held in custody at Kraken, each kBTC token enables users to interact with Bitcoin's value within the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

Kraken 推出了 Kraken Wrapped Bitcoin (kBTC)，这是一种新的 ERC-20 代币，旨在增强比特币在以太坊和 OP 主网等网络上的去中心化应用程序 (dApp) 中的可用性。每个 kBTC 代币均以比特币 1:1 的比例支持并由 Kraken 保管，使用户能够在去中心化金融 (DeFi) 生态系统中与比特币的价值进行互动。

The launch of kBTC aims to integrate Bitcoin's store of value and security capabilities into broader blockchain ecosystems, particularly those operating on Ethereum and beyond. Each kBTC token is securely held at Kraken Financial, a Wyoming-chartered Special Purpose Depository Institution (SPDI). The kBTC smart contract has also undergone an audit by the security firm Trail of Bits.

kBTC 的推出旨在将比特币的价值存储和安全功能整合到更广泛的区块链生态系统中，特别是在以太坊及其他平台上运行的生态系统。每个 kBTC 代币均安全地保存在怀俄明州特许特殊目的存款机构 (SPDI) Kraken Financial 中。 kBTC 智能合约也经过了安全公司 Trail of Bits 的审核。

Kraken highlights the interoperability aspect of kBTC, allowing Bitcoin to be utilized across different networks. The token is initially set to integrate with Ethereum and OP Mainnet, with plans for further expansion to non-EVM chains in the future. This increased flexibility is touted as making kBTC a valuable tool for developers building dApps using Bitcoin or for investors seeking to access Bitcoin in on-chain environments.

Kraken 强调了 kBTC 的互操作性，允许比特币在不同的网络上使用。该代币最初计划与以太坊和 OP 主网集成，并计划在未来进一步扩展到非 EVM 链。这种灵活性的提高被认为使 kBTC 成为使用比特币构建 dApp 的开发人员或寻求在链上环境中访问比特币的投资者的宝贵工具。

Moreover, the exchange allows users to independently verify that each kBTC token is fully backed by Bitcoin by inspecting Kraken's on-chain reserves.

此外，该交易所允许用户通过检查 Kraken 的链上储备来独立验证每个 kBTC 代币是否完全由比特币支持。

Kraken's launch of kBTC also includes partnerships with several platforms from Day 1, such as deBridge, Definitive, Gauntlet, ParaSwap, and Yearn, which will incorporate kBTC into their services. These partnerships are expected to help expand kBTC's reach and utility across DeFi ecosystems.

Kraken 推出 kBTC 还包括从第一天起就与多个平台建立合作伙伴关系，例如 deBridge、Definitive、Gauntlet、ParaSwap 和 Yearn，这些平台将把 kBTC 纳入其服务中。这些合作伙伴关系预计将有助于扩大 kBTC 在 DeFi 生态系统中的影响力和效用。
