For years, using Bitcoin in DeFi usually meant wrapping it, bridging it, or trusting another party to hold it. That's always felt like a compromise.
@BabylonLabs_io is trying a different approach with Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV). TBV enables native Bitcoin-backed borrowing without introducing centralized intermediaries. The first implementation is with Aave v4 on the public testnet, where native BTC can be used as collateral to borrow supported Ethereum assets.
The concept is simple but meaningful: keep Bitcoin native while making it productive across ecosystems.
I think this is one of those experiments that's worth trying firsthand instead of just reading about. Explore the testnet, see how the borrowing flow works, and leave feedback to help shape the final product.
