Bitlayer — Powering the Future of Bitcoin DeFi
Bitlayer is building the next generation of Bitcoin-based DeFi infrastructure, designed to unlock Bitcoin’s true potential beyond simple transfers and storage. By combining security, speed, and utility, Bitlayer provides a framework where Bitcoin becomes the backbone of a thriving decentralized finance ecosystem. Every transaction and application is secured by Bitcoin’s native architecture, ensuring the same unmatched reliability that has made BTC the world’s most trusted digital asset.
At the heart of this innovation is the BitVM Bridge, a secure and trust-minimized gateway connecting Bitcoin with other blockchain ecosystems. This breakthrough allows users to move assets seamlessly in and out of Bitcoin without sacrificing security. For the first time, DeFi users can tap into the strengths of multiple networks while always staying anchored to Bitcoin’s trust layer.
Bitlayer also introduces YBTC, a yield-bearing Bitcoin asset that transforms BTC into more than just a store of value. With YBTC, holders can earn rewards while maintaining full exposure to Bitcoin’s price. By integrating YBTC into decentralized applications, users gain the ability to generate income without selling their Bitcoin. This innovation reshapes BTC into an income-producing asset, unlocking new opportunities for long-term holders and DeFi participants alike.
Bitlayer’s vision is clear: empower Bitcoin to fuel the next wave of decentralized finance, offering security, interoperability, and yield opportunities that redefine what’s possible with the world’s first cryptocurrency. With its cutting-edge infrastructure and novel products, Bitlayer is setting the stage for Bitcoin’s evolution into a true DeFi powerhouse.
