This proposal would add ckBTC as a constituent of Alloyed BTC with an initial static limit of 10%.

## Alloyed BTC

[Alloyed BTC](https://celatone.osmosis.zone/osmosis-1/contracts/osmo1z6r6qdknhgsc0zeracktgpcxf43j6sekq07nw8sxduc9lg0qjjlqfu25e3) was recognized as the canonical Bitcoin on Osmosis in [Proposal 813](https://daodao.zone/dao/osmosis/proposals/813).

It currently has around [44 BTC in supply on Osmosis](https://app.osmosis.zone/assets/BTC), and consists of:

- WBTC.axl (Axelar bridge from Ethereum)
- WBTC (Natively Issued on Osmosis)
- nBTC (Nomic Bridged Bitcoin)

This proposal requests the addition of ckBTC to the existing Bitcoin Alloy, enabling BTC to be deposited via [Omnity Bridge](https://bridge.omnity.network/ckbtc).

This proposal adds an initial static rate limit of 10% to bound risk to Alloyed BTC for the established ckBTC issuance.

The more the better.

I do hope to see numbers go up on the amount of BTC on our Alloyed BTC 🙂
