The idea of moving between the two largest crypto ecosystems trustlessly was first brought up by Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin in March 2020. Threshold launched tBTC v1 in October 2020, which was initially well-received but faced challenges due to the dApp's complexity and restrictive security model.
