#Bitlayer @BitlayerLabs **Bitlayer** is a Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol designed to enhance scalability and enable faster, cheaper transactions. Built on the Bitcoin network, Bitlayer introduces smart contract capabilities while maintaining Bitcoin’s security and decentralization. It leverages rollups to bundle multiple transactions into a single one, reducing congestion and fees on the main chain. This innovation allows developers to build decentralized applications (dApps) directly connected to Bitcoin. Bitlayer supports EVM compatibility, making it easier for Ethereum developers to transition and build on Bitcoin. By expanding Bitcoin’s utility beyond simple transactions, Bitlayer aims to unlock new possibilities for DeFi and other blockchain-based services.
