Bitcoin's role is changing! It's moving beyond just storing value to becoming a more active part of the cryptocurrency world. This is thanks to Bitcoin DeFi (BTCfi), which lets people earn money using their Bitcoin in new ways.
- Bitcoin is being used in decentralized finance (DeFi) on new sidechains.
- These sidechains let Bitcoin holders earn money through lending and other services.
- This is a big change, as Bitcoin was mostly held and not actively used before.
