#baby $BABY One question came to my mind while reading about Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV): What if someone believes in Bitcoin for the long term but suddenly needs cash? Selling BTC isn't always the first choice, especially if you plan to keep it for years.
That's why the first use case of TBV with Aave v4 caught my attention. Instead of selling your Bitcoin, TBV makes it possible to use native BTC as collateral and borrow supported assets. I think that's a much smarter option for people who want short-term liquidity without giving up their long-term Bitcoin position.
What I also like is that the process is built around native Bitcoin. There's no wrapping, no bridging, and no need to rely on intermediaries. That keeps the idea simple and stays closer to what many Bitcoin users actually want—ownership and control.
For me, this isn't just another borrowing feature. It feels like a practical way to make Bitcoin more useful without changing what makes it valuable in the first place. I'm looking forward to trying the TBV public testnet and seeing how the borrowing experience works from a user's point of view.
