BOB Gateway
Bridge from Bitcoin to BOB
BOB Gateway lets you stake, swap, or lend your bitcoin from a single, unified interface so you can put your bitcoin to work earning yield faster than ever before.
It's built on a trustless, RFQ-based cross-chain swap protocol that connects professional LPs with users through a seamless swapping experience. Essentially, LPs handle the complexities of bridging and staking on behalf of users in exchange for a fee.
If you are interested in being an LP for the BOB Gateway bridge, please send us an email at gateway@gobob.xyz
.
All you need is a Bitcoin wallet with some BTC to send and an EVM-compatible wallet to receive your Bitcoin LST/LRT or wrapped Bitcoin on BOB. We'll even send you some ETH to cover the fees of your first few transactions on BOB.
