> "Is Wrapped Bitcoin considered safe?

I’ve been thinking about using Wrapped Bitcoin to get extra interest on my holdings as i planned not to sell within at least 5 years, and if i could get interests while waiting, just like ETH staking, i find this pretty interesting, I'm wondering how safe it actually is. I know WBTC is backed 1:1. Do you consider WBTC safe enough to hold for a longer period, or is it something you only use temporarily for DeFi? Also curious if people prefer alternatives like cbBTC or tBTC and why."

> "Thoughts on Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC)?

I’ve been looking into Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin and wanted to hear what people here think about cbBTC. It seems convenient for using BTC across DeFi, especially with Coinbase backing it 1:1, but wondering if it's reliable in long term. Do you consider cbBTC safe enough to hold for a longer period, or is it better to only use it temporarily when you actually need it for DeFi? How do you think it compares to WBTC or more decentralised options like tBTC?"
