CBTC is a live, audited wrapped Bitcoin token on Canton Network with a named team and clear institutional focus. Its 1:1 backing, FROST threshold signatures, and CIP-56 compliance show real substance, though limited documentation, no disclosed funding, and zero on-chain rewards keep it in the solid but early-stage range.

Connected Projects

CBTC is a product of BitSafe (parent company), an institutional Bitcoin infrastructure provider previously known as DLC.Link, founded in 2021. BitSafe operates the CBTC bridge in partnership with nine pre-screened external node operators (each managing >$1B AUM) plus one BitSafe node. The Attestor / validator partner set publicly named at launch includes Kiln, Figment, Nethermind, and Launchnodes, all institutional-grade staking/validation firms that co-sign deposits and withdrawals via FROST threshold signing. CBTC integrates natively with the broader Canton Network ecosystem: Digital Asset (Canton's core contributor) endorsed the launch via co-founder Eric Saraniecki.
