The Singapore-based firm's mint represents nearly 3% of the current wrapped bitcoin supply, just over 81,000 at last check.

One week ago, Alameda Research set the previous record for most tokens issued in a single mint with 1,999 WBTC issued.

Since January, the total supply of wrapped bitcoin has grown by over 13,000% from less than 600 WBTC, according to data from Dune Analytics.
