Cardano Prepares Pogun to Unlock $1.6T Bitcoin Liquidity in DeFi
- —83–95% of the $1.6 trillion in bitcoin liquidity sits idle in DeFi networks
- —Less than 1% of BTC participates in DeFi versus 10–15% for Ethereum
- —Pogun attracted $600 million in funding commitments
- —The platform launch is expected in Q4 or early 2027
Why it matters: The launch could open new demand for ADA and bring the largest pool of capital into DeFi, but timing depends on the Leios upgrade.
