You can override the cursor instead of setting the cursor, like this:
Mouse.OverrideCursor = Cursors.Wait;
Then when the operation is carried out, you can remove the override by setting it to null, like this:
Mouse.OverrideCursor = null;

any difference(effect, side effect) compared to
btn.Cursor?

I had to check my own WPF app and this is exactly what I do when I want to set the cursor back to "default" (arrow)
You are right. There is no Cursors.Default static property. But you can always set cursor of a control to null and it will restore control's default cursor.
// ...
btn.Cursor = Cursors.Wait;
// whatever... your operation.
btn.Cursor = null;
// now the Cursor is default again.

Works with MVVM, too
I think you need to store the current cursor in a variable before changing it to the Wait cursor and then set it to your cursor variable when you want to change it back.
