That is why tBTC minting will be live by next January.

What is Threshold exactly? Threshold provides a suite of cryptographic building blocks for privacy, access controls, and x-chain bridges:
🔐 Proxy re-encryption (PRE)
🖊️ Threshold signatures (TSS)
🔑 Distributed key generation (DKG)
🪄 Random beacon (RB)
🚀 And more to come
The Threshold Network will p̵r̵o̵v̵i̵d̵e̵ ̵a̵ ̵g̵r̵o̵w̵i̵n̵g̵ ̵s̵e̵t̵ ̵o̵f̵ ̵c̵r̵y̵p̵t̵o̵g̵r̵a̵p̵h̵i̵c̵ ̵t̵o̵o̵l̵s̵ ̵t̵o̵ ̵p̵o̵w̵e̵r̵ ̵t̵h̵e̵ ̵p̵r̵i̵v̵a̵c̵y̵-̵f̵o̵c̵u̵s̵e̵d̵ ̵a̵n̵d̵ ̵s̵e̵l̵f̵-̵s̵o̵v̵e̵r̵e̵i̵g̵n̵ ̵d̵e̵c̵e̵n̵t̵r̵a̵l̵i̵z̵e̵d̵ ̵f̵u̵t̵u̵r̵e̵ be the future of privacy.

The NU and KEEP token holders decided to create a third project that we could all migrate to.

The mint and burn fees accrue to the Threshold DAO’s treasury, which is on-chain and controlled by token holders.
Governance determines what happens to the revenue generated by the protocol.

The only thing Bitcoiners really have to do with their money is use centralized exchanges, and we’ve seen how that goes.
So instead of leaving your money sitting around at home, getting rekt in FTX, or margining somewhere, we’re offering

holders a better option.
