Minting
Users can mint hBTC directly on integrated Ethereum-compatible chains using wBTC as collateral. The minting flow is designed to be simple, secure, and compliance-aligned from the first interaction.
Requirements
Before minting, users must complete the following steps:
zkKYC verification via Galactica Users must complete identity onboarding to receive a verified SBT (soulbound token). This proof is required to unlock minting access.
Gas on supported chain Users need sufficient native gas tokens to complete on-chain transactions.
Wrapped BTC (wBTC) Deposits are currently accepted in wBTC at a 1:1 minting ratio.
How Minting Works
Connect a verified wallet Once connected, users who hold a valid zkID SBT will see the option to mint.
Input the amount of wBTC The interface accepts deposits in wBTC only. The deposited amount will be matched 1:1 with newly minted hBTC.
Sign and confirm The minting transaction is executed on-chain. Once confirmed, hBTC is issued directly to the user's wallet.
This process creates a fully backed, composable BTC asset ready to be staked for yield or integrated across DeFi.
