The price of T, the native asset of Bitcoin (BTC)-focused decentralized finance (DeFi) project Threshold Network, has soared by more than 55% this week.

Threshold Network powers tBTC, a decentralized wrapped Bitcoin that can be used throughout DeFi ecosystems.

The project’s native token is trading at $0.0223 at time of writing, up from $0.0143 one week ago. The 236th-ranked crypto asset by market cap is also up nearly 48% in the past 24 hours alone.

T’s price surge largely materialized after Threshold Network announced on Thursday that it planned to restructure its decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) to reduce annual operational costs by approximately $1.1 million.

Explains the project,

"Added to the more than $8.5 million in annual savings expected from the elimination of tBTC staking rewards, this sets the stage for significant profitability moving forward.

Cost efficiency also allows the DAO to eliminate treasury sales of T tokens, enabling it to strategically reinvest in T token. The DAO treasury will continue to accrue tBTC via bridge fees and T tokens via buybacks as per TIP-54.

Threshold has already completed its first purchase of ~30 million T tokens for 5.8 tBTC...

Given the tight economic linkage between T and tBTC, this shift is expected to create a virtuous cycle of growth, where increased Total Value Locked (TVL) and bridge velocity drive T’s value, attracting further participation and reinforcing the ecosystem’s expansion."
