#Bitlayer Bitlayer is a Bitcoin-native Layer-2 network built on the BitVM framework, enabling Turing-complete smart contracts while maintaining Bitcoin-equivalent security. It anchors all transactions to Bitcoin’s proof-of-work through a rollup model, ensuring trust-minimized verification without new consensus changes. Bitlayer combines Proof-of-Stake for fast block production with periodic settlement on Bitcoin, achieving both scalability and security.

The network offers EVM compatibility, allowing Ethereum-based dApps to run seamlessly, and supports native BTC as gas and the base asset. Its BitVM-powered bridge enables secure, decentralized BTC transfers between Bitcoin and Layer-2.

Launched in 2023, Bitlayer has rapidly grown to process over 150,000 daily transactions, with $550M BTC locked and more than 300 projects deployed. Designed for DeFi, payments, and cross-chain interoperability, Bitlayer aims to expand Bitcoin’s utility beyond a store of value into a robust platform for decentralized applications and global financial infrastructure.
