Kintsugi

"Interlay launched Kintsugi, the first trustless Bitcoin bridge on Kusama, Polkadot’s canary network. Polkadot will have its own very soon. Interlay’s wrapped Bitcoin ($kBTC) is very similar to Maker’s $DAI. It’s algorithmically pegged to $BTC and secured by a decentralized network of vaults, a multi-collateral system, and cross-chain cryptography. This familiar collateral-backed vault leverages Polkadot’s shared security model and Bitcoin’s classic security model."

Oracle Method

  • DIA has a partnership with Interlay to build transparent, collateral-proofed price oracles for iBTC and kBTC (15-2-2023).
