Bitlayer is shaking things up in the Bitcoin DeFi world. Instead of the usual slow, trust-heavy transfers, their BitVM Bridge makes it possible to move BTC across chains quickly and with far more security. The tech feels like a big step toward making Bitcoin as flexible as other smart contract platforms. With $25M in backing and partnerships that actually matter, Bitlayer isn’t just talking about scaling it’s building it. This feels less like a short-term project and more like the early chapters of Bitcoin’s next big upgrade.
