1/7 Most BTC just sits there. People stack it, hold it, and that’s it. But some are actually trying to use it. Not saying it’s good or bad, just interesting. One of those places? @BotanixLabs and their Spiderchain setup. Let’s take a look https://t.co/O5VlA0IBYI

Not saying it’s the perfect setup, but it’s a different approach

4/7 Using BTC as collateral for stablecoins isn’t new, but usually it involves bridges or trusted third parties. Here, RovBTC stays secured by a decentralized multisig system, while USBD gives you something spendable. More like a collateralized loan, just natively on BTC

5/7 Then there’s staking. People are putting up RovBTC and earning yield. Which is funny, because “staking Bitcoin” always sounded weird. But here, it’s just BTC staying in the system while still being used for something. Different risks, different trade-offs

6/7 Multisig is another interesting part. Usually, it’s either too complex or too centralized. Asignaio lets you set up a multisig with BTC or an EVM wallet, no custodians, no KYC. Just another way to manage funds without putting full trust in any one party

7/7 Not saying this is the future of Bitcoin. Maybe it catches on, maybe it doesn’t. But BTC just sitting there forever doesn’t feel like the endgame. Watching different experiments like @BotanixLabs play out is at least worth paying attention to

2/7 Spiderchain isn’t a typical Bitcoin Layer 2. It’s a series of successive multisigs between Botanix Orchestrators. No extra tokens, no validators, just decentralized multisig wallets securing BTC while enabling an EVM-compatible environment

3/7 What does that actually mean? On Spiderchain, people are:
🔸Locking BTC to mint stablecoins
🔸Staking wrapped BTC for rewards
🔸Using BTC in DeFi pools
🔸Setting up multisig wallets without custodians
