+
+The minting portal should also improve the trading experience by bringing improved liquidity to the Arbitrum ecosystem for tBTC users.
+
+The launch includes a tBTC Native Minting Dapp built for Arbitrum users, a powerful off-chain relayer, a tBTC SDK extension for Arbitrum ecosystem builders, and a long-term tBTC on Arbitrum rewards program. More info can be found at the [Threshold Blog](https://blog.threshold.network/), and you can check out the [tBTC SDK documentation](https://docs.threshold.network/app-development/tbtc-v2/tbtc-sdk) for more information on how to start building.
+
+tBTC offers users a trust-minimzed way to bring their Bitcoin holdings into the EVM and Solana ecosystems, effectively giving their Bitcoin wheels and making it a productive asset.
+
+The total count of tBTC holders has jumped significantly in recent months, signaling that the market is further embracing decentralized alternatives in the tokenized Bitcoin market.
