[AMA] Giveaway with Portal to Bitcoin: Making bridges, wrapped coins, and external custody obsolete - Feb 12

Hey r/cryptocurrency!

We’re Portal to Bitcoin, the first fully custodyless, cross-chain infrastructure built for Bitcoin. Using our BitScaler architecture, we enable native-to-native asset transfers across blockchains without the security risks of bridges, wrapped assets or centralized custody.

What We’re Solving:

1. Truly decentralized cross-chain transactions with no wrapped assets, vaults or multi-sig risks
2. Fast, low-cost swaps secured by Bitcoin, the most capital-rich blockchain & what we believe to be the fundamental monetary layer
3. Seamless DeFi access with a UX rivaling CEXs and fully self-custodied
4. Sustainable liquidity incentives through a first-of-its-kind Bitcoin AMM
5. Barriers to Americans from participating in incentivization campaigns.

Who’s Here?

Our team at Portal to Bitcoin has been building on Bitcoin for a long time and is backed by Arrington Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Gate.io and OKX Ventures.
