WBTC is a tokenized Bitcoin protocol that issues ERC-20 tokens each backed one-to-one by Bitcoin held in reserve by custodians. WBTC's Twitter Score is 78 out of 1000 (a Good rating) as of October 2026, ranking #10,215 (top 5%) among 493,668 tracked accounts.
WBTC operates as a bridge between Bitcoin and decentralized finance, allowing BTC holders to deploy their assets across DeFi protocols and multichain environments. Each token in circulation represents one BTC held by custodians, with BitGo serving as a key custodian and the WBTC DAO overseeing governance. In August 2024, BitGo moved the custodial arrangement into a joint venture with BiT Global, retaining a minority stake in the new structure. Following that deal, the WBTC supply fell by roughly 15%, and Coinbase delisted WBTC from its platform. BiT Global subsequently filed a lawsuit against Coinbase over the delisting.
WBTC has accumulated 39,250 followers as of October 2026 since joining in 2019, with 2,424 posts published to date. WBTC has been mentioned by 361 accounts, totalling 728 mentions.
