Babylon Partners with Aave to Enable Native Bitcoin as DeFi Collateral

Bitcoin staking platform Babylon has partnered with decentralized lending protocol Aave to allow BTC holders to use native Bitcoin as collateral for DeFi lending. The collaboration eliminates the need for wrapped Bitcoin tokens and enables users to maintain full control of their private keys while accessing liquidity. Babylon's trustless Bitcoin Vaults lock BTC in time-locked contracts on the Bitcoin blockchain while being recognized by Aave's lending architecture.
