wonder if there's a way to pool funds like some kind of ethereum contract. I know ethereum won't talk to bitcoin, but maybe there's a way to do it?

- JVillella 4y agoThere's something called WBTC[1]. It's very popular. [1]: https://wbtc.network https://wbtc.network
- Laaas 4y agoEDIT: This comment is entirely wrong! Disregard. Do note this isn't _real_ wrapped bitcoin. It's essentially a stablecoin which price matches a bitcoin; it is not backed by any bitcoins unfortunately. Real wrapped BTC would require a decentralised bridge which isn't exactly trivial.
- JVillella 4y agoWrong :) Look at the website.

- Laaas 4y agoFWIW it seems to be centralised, making use of a custodian, albeit it is backed by BTC as you say.
- JVillella 4y agoYes, that's right. It's like USDC in that sense.
