Built to help you get a smoother and better swap experience across BTCFi.

Persistence April 2026 Summary 🚀 The month of April brought the conclusion of Interop Beta Mainnet, helping us battle test the concept of Bitcoin Cross-Chain Swaps with a small set of early users. This happened alongside continued progress on the BridgeKitty front 🐈 and believing that it’s still early for BTCFi Interoperability. All that happened 🤝 https://x.com/PersistenceOne/status/2052304185723679177

🚨 Persisters, the Incentivised Beta campaign for Bitcoin cross-chain swaps is now wrapped up. Together, we crossed ~$90K in volume across BNB Chain and Base with intentionally small limits, giving us strong signals on real-world performance. We patched bugs, stress-tested flows, and gathered solid feedback along the way. Appreciate everyone who tried it out and shared inputs. The campaign is now temporarily paused as we review next steps. More soon. https://x.com/PersistenceOne/status/2043995102939619783
