 We planned to launch with wBTC before adding native BTC reserves. But wBTC's partnership with BiT Global confirmed our concerns about centralized bridges. 
So, we’re pausing to focus on accepting native BTC in a decentralized way before going live. 

A setback, but the right move. 
 Fiat money has failed us and the future looks destined to be swallowed by inflation, high costs of living, crushing debt and the erosion of hard-earned savings. 
Is this the tomorrow we want?
