Bitcoin and eth are coming together on one blockchain ?

well it seems so with A new project called Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) will soon allow Bitcoin-backed tokens to be circulated on Ethereum. The token’s release has been scheduled for January 2019.

It looks like WBTC isn't mined, it is minted and backed by a reserve of BTC tokens that are held by a custodian. As a result, the price of WBTC will be pegged to the price of Bitcoin, avoiding some of Ethereum’s volatility,

Is this a good thing ?
