BTC-Secured PoS – Dual Stake, Double Trust
Most Proof-of-Stake (PoS) chains depend only on their own token for security.
BounceBit takes a different approach — it uses both Bitcoin and its native token (BB).
Validators are required to lock both BTC and BB to earn rewards. If they act dishonestly, both tokens can be penalized. This makes the system secure both technically and economically.
Why this matters:
– Bitcoin adds strong financial backing
– BB ensures proper governance and utility alignment
– Penalties apply to actual BTC (like BTCB or WBTC), not just symbolic tokens
This dual-token model brings the strength of Bitcoin’s liquidity and the flexibility of smart contracts.
The result is a programmable network with strong built-in security.
Would you trust a blockchain more if it used Bitcoin for its security?
Always do your own research (DYOR).
