Bridge or swap? It depends.

The answer depends on what you want to hold at the end.
Bridging $BTC into a BTC-backed token can preserve your Bitcoin price exposure on another network, while swapping BTC exchanges that exposure for an asset such as $ETH or $USDC.
These are two different goals, and confusing them can lead to unnecessary transactions, extra fees and risks you did not intend to take.
@build_on_bob explains the distinction in its guide to moving native $BTC across chains without wrapping it or using a centralized exchange:

Happy Halloween from the BOB team 🎃🧡
May your funds be safe, swaps be one-click, and slippage zero.
With Pakt, anything not explicitly allowed is denied by default.
Your agent can’t trade DOGE if you only approved BTC, ETH and SOL - no matter what.

BOB Gateway is back online. Thanks for your patience 🧡
Out of an abundance of caution, BOB Gateway swaps engine is temporarily paused following reports of a security incident at Binance.
All user funds are safe, and pending orders are processing normally.
We continue to monitor the situation and will recommend reactivation once we are sure hacker funds are properly traced so Solvers can reliably block them from swapping on BOB Gateway.
Crypto and DeFi must stand together against bad actors. Zero tolerance for crime.

The current agent guardrails are bad. If we want to scale agentic usage and autonomy, guardrails need to become fine-grained, not just which services agents can use, but exactly how they can use them.
Bitcoin DeFi starts with a swap.
