Wormhole, the most popular interoperability protocol, has reported that it is now working with Stacks, one of the largest Bitcoin layers. This implementation helps streamline cross-blockchain transmission of programmable Bitcoin ($BTC) and forms a connection between Stacks and several different decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. This integration provides cross-chain interoperability and helps Bitcoin become a good contributing member in DeFi. Announcing: @wormholeWormhole, the top interoperability protocol, will integrate the leading Bitcoin layer: Stacks.Soon: unlocking seamless cross-chain flows for programmable Bitcoin, powered by Wormhole NTT.Wormhole’s NTT becomes the standard for sBTC + STX.More 1/3. pic.twitter.com/8DMtn2rmve — stacks.btc (@Stacks) July 1, 2025 Stacks and Wormhole Integration: A New Standard for sBTC and STX The Network Token Transfer (NTT) technology at Wormhole will form the bridge to the liquidity at Bitcoin and with Solana, SUI, and other blockchain networks. This integration enables the migration of sBTC and STX tokens between chains without friction, therefore creating new opportunities in terms of dApps run on Bitcoin. The capacity to handle more than 60 billion in crossover volume means that Wormhole can now transfer Bitcoin more safely and efficiently using the protocol. The interoperability between Stacks and Wormhole will enable liquidity in Bitcoin, which is idle within diverse platforms, to enter into DeFi usage. This boosts the performance of decentralized platforms by providing them with Bitcoin-level security without sacrificing multichain flexibility. Therefore, the adoption of sBTC with Wormhole is likely to unlock true Bitcoin in numerous decentralized financial products. The Future of DeFi Bitcoin-Grade Security The wormhole and stack integration are essential contributors to the DeFi industry. Wormhole has opened up the opportunity to have Bitcoin as a significant asset in the decentralized finance space by enabling DeFi applications to use Bitcoin in the security of the transactions and integrating them. This integration provides new opportunities to develop cross-chain innovation with a market of idle Bitcoin of more than $2 trillion now available to DeFi.
