This is exactly how the Alchemy proposal works too btw.
When you combine BTC & BTC- you effectively just get BTC. The treasury's money is converted into BTC, and the assets it holds are backed by that BTC.
We're making that generational upside available to Cardano

A Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is the most asymmetric bet the U.S. Treasury could make. The downside is manageable. The upside is generational.

Update on the L2 progress for y'all. We've pushed ahead with developing on top of @midgardprotocol and have an internal L2 deployment running.
Highest TPS (so far) = 800. We expect to be able to push that much higher as we harden & optimize.

@midgardprotocol is getting faster ⚡
At @SundialProtocol, we’re pushing #L2 to institutional-grade #performance.
No assumptions — just benchmark, fix, repeat.

The fight back for ADA and BTC begins now. ⚔️
We at @SundialProtocol and @CharmsDev are partnering to turn the tides for our ecosystem.
I call on you to join! 🫵
Let's build the infrastructure and products that move the market to Cardano Bitcoin.
Jun 4
☀️ Sundial is proud to partner with @CharmsDev on our newest initiative: Alchemy - a new Cardano-native Bitcoin Treasury and liquidity system.
Alchemy is designed to bring proven Bitcoin-backed structured product demand on-chain, positioning Cardano at the forefront of one of BTCfi’s fastest-growing categories.
Alongside this announcement, Sundial and @CharmsDev will soon be releasing a Cardano treasury proposal to help bring this vision to life.
We welcome feedback from the community before the proposal goes live.
More information coming soon.

We had a great discussion on the Sundial audit with @hackenclub yesterday! If you missed it, make sure to check out the recording👇
May 19
A good audit is more than a checklist; it's part of building secure and trustworthy systems from the outset.
So join us later today at 11:00 EST for an X Space with @hackenclub as we discuss the recent audit process and what robust security standards look like for Bitcoin-native infrastructure.
Set a reminder and bring your questions👇

In November I sat down in Starbucks to try my hand at Bitcoin development & made a little test project called BTC-Locker.
5 months & 214 commits later a professional audit report came back - 0 critical vulnerabilities, 0 high vulnerabilities.
This is far from the biggest thing we're building at Sundial, but it's a testament to how quickly things can change if you just put your head down and build.
Just go do it 🛠️

Another big step forward for Sundial!
Audit complete.
Big thanks to Hacken for this!
But of course my biggest praise has got to go to our Sundial team. We had only a handful of tiny vulnerabilities and we got those immediately wrapped up.
Onwards and upwards from here everyone! ☀️

Sundial had a great few days out in BTC Vegas🎲
We met great people and had a lot of valuable conversations across the week⚡
Spending time connecting with builders and institutional participants and exchanging views on Bitcoin-native infrastructure confirmed that we're moving from ideas to real-world deployment.
See you at the next one!
