Threshold Network today announced the launch of fee waivers for $T stakers, a mechanism intended to enhance the Threshold token’s utility and improve onchain performance and capital efficiency for tBTC, its decentralized Bitcoin bridge.
By staking (locking) $T tokens, participants become eligible for reduced or fully waived tBTC bridge fees on eligible mint and redeem activity. The update lowers execution costs for active users, improves arbitrage efficiency between tBTC and BTC, and creates a clearer, more direct link between governance participation and real protocol usage.
Lower Costs, Better Outcomes for Active BTC Users
For participants who regularly bridge Bitcoin, execution costs can compound over time. Minting BTC into tBTC remains free, in line with existing governance decisions. However, redemption carries a fee of up to 20 basis points, reflecting the cost of maintaining secure, decentralized bridge infras
