Okay, we're doing this. tBTC is being deployed to mainnet.

Buckle up. #bitcoin #ethereum 💏

You can follow along signers bonding ETH at etherscan.io/address/0x7137…

Sorry, no fancy dashboards yet. Soon ™️

We're 80% through a dry-run on Ropsten. Once it's verified, we'll

1⃣ Deploy TBTCSystem to mainnet
2⃣ Verify all contracts
3⃣ Transfer the governance role to the @keep_project technical team multisig
4⃣ Ask @MakerDAO to pretty please to authorize the price feed 😃

Okay, Ropsten is golden. Looking at gas prices on mainnet... things have calmed down a bit. Time to press the red button.

👉🔴

Contracts are up. Initializing all the things, and awaiting price feed authorization from our friends @MakerDAO cc @nanexcool

I'm not done tweeting, this part just takes a while! 😃

In the meantime, we've deployed the staking dashboard for signers to dashboard.keep.network. @keep_project

Thanks @MakerDAO friends 🤗

ETH/BTC oracle authorized- onward!

Mk, we're running some test deposits. This would be an annoying time for a huge bull run or CryptoKitties launch - 🤞 both chains are copacetic!

They aren't! 🎢

This took some time but...

I'm proud to share the first TBTC minted on mainnet 😎

We're running a few more deposit and redemption tests, and have hardcoded the dApp to only offer 0.001 BTC lot sizes. Next week we'll start cleaning up the dApp UX, and loosen that restriction.

If you want to mint early like a 🤠, you can frontrun our testing with github.com/keep-network/t…

We do not recommend this.

The token contract is here 👇

Thanks to @_charlienoyes for pushing us to take this on, @_prestwich and @summa_one for their trailblazing, the @crosschaingroup, @FEhrsam, @matthuang, @danrobinson, @arjunblj, @zmanian, @hal2001, @ercwl and many more for their support and protocol feedback.

Most importantly, though, thanks to the Ethereum and Bitcoin communities. I know you don't always get along, but... we don't give a crap. It's time to interoperate! #bitcoin #ethereum 💏

And finally.... thanks to Satoshi 🤪
