# What is vBTC?

vBTC is a **digital asset** built on Bitcoin (BTC). By owning vBTC, users can own BTC in full-value units instead of long decimal strings, which are prone to errors and security risks. vBTC is pegged at a ratio of **1 BTC = 10⁸ vBTC**, ensuring transparency and accuracy in trading.

vBTC optimizes investor benefits through a **structured process of fractioning, packaging, and guaranteeing the value of BTC.**
