ValoraBTC (VLBTC)

ValoraBTC is a Bitcoin liquidity routing and settlement protocol designed to coordinate BTC liquidity across multiple DeFi environments. Rather than issuing a new wrapped BTC or operating as a Bitcoin Layer-2, the protocol focuses on policy, routing, and settlement logic above existing BTC representations.

The goal of ValoraBTC is to reduce fragmentation in Bitcoin DeFi by enabling BTC liquidity to move across different representations and environments without forcing users or developers to commit to a single custody model, bridge, or long-term trust assumption.

ValoraBTC does not compete with wrapped BTC assets or Bitcoin Layer-2 networks. Instead, it acts as a coordination layer that separates settlement logic from incentive mechanisms through a dual-token architecture. This design allows the protocol to adapt to changing BTC infrastructures while keeping risk localized and assumptions explicit.
