About Citrea
Citrea, the Bitcoin ZK rollup, has achieved several milestones with long-term significance. Its mainnet launch marked a pivotal moment, reigniting the debate over Bitcoin block space usage as the rollup's data availability consumption accounted for nearly 10% of monthly bandwidth during testnet. The introduction of ctUSD, a native stablecoin backed by M0 infrastructure and issued via MoonPay, established a unified liquidity standard, eliminating fragmentation from bridged assets. The subsequent listing of CTR on Upbit for BTC and USDT markets expanded accessibility. These events collectively position Citrea as a foundational layer for Bitcoin-based DeFi, lending, and institutional-grade stablecoin payments, shifting the ecosystem from speculative to utility-driven.
Positive: CTR listed on 15+ exchanges including Upbit, Coinbase, Binance Futures; 10M CTR fully distributed to early stakers; institutional liquidity commitments of $50M+ from Galaxy Digital; governance live with first proposal passed; new staking incentive frameworks under development.
Negative: Early Staker Program concluded and baseline staking emissions ended, removing passive staking rewards; cross-chain functions suspended due to Zentra Finance security incident.
