But more than that, the protocol integrates with DeFi to connect users to crypto lenders, trading platforms, and yield aggregators.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/bitcoin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">DeFiLlama<\/a>, the total value locked in Bitcoin DeFi protocols currently stands at over $7.57 billion.
