More on Symbiosis and BTC
Cross-chain simplicity, finally done right
Symbiosis makes it possible to exchange tokens from networks like Polygon directly into BTC on the native Bitcoin network through an automated and secure process. Behind the scenes, the protocol uses trusted infrastructures like ThorChain and Chainflip bridges, which accept only USDC. That’s why Symbiosis first converts your assets — for example, MATIC from Polygon — into USDC, then routes the funds through the most efficient network, whether that’s Ethereum, Avalanche, or Arbitrum.
Once USDC reaches the selected chain, it’s deposited into ThorChain or Chainflip smart contracts. From there, Bitcoin is sent straight to the BTC address you provided. The process is fully automated, non-custodial, and protected by fallback logic: if the bridge fails to complete the transaction, your USDC is safely returned to your wallet. All of this happens in one seamless flow — no manual steps, no switching platforms. Just a smooth, efficient way to move value across chains and into the Bitcoin ecosystem with full transparency and control.
One interface for everything
Symbiosis developed to simplify swaps. Users save the need to go between wallets, bridges, and platforms by having a single interface for token trades and routing across Polygon and Bitcoin networks. Simple to operate and calls for no technical setup.
Effortless swaps with smart automation
You choose what to send and where; Symbiosis handles the rest. The protocol identifies the best route, transforms tokens (if needed), and manages chain transfers. No need to manually validate tokens on multiple networks or assume the optimum path—it's all done for you.
Decentralized and secure by design
Decentralized smart contracts execute all Symbiosis transactions, so no third party owns your funds. The platform is non-custodial, allowing you full control and transparency. Symbiosis makes it safe and easy to transfer wealth, including native Bitcoin, for traders of all levels.
