Composability Comes to Bitcoin
In DeFi, composability is everything. It’s what allows developers to stack protocols together like Lego bricks, creating entirely new financial products by combining existing ones. Ethereum has thrived because of it, but Bitcoin — until now — has been left out.
With the first BitVM implementation, @BitlayerLabs brings full composability to the Bitcoin network. #Bitlayer enables high-performance smart contracts directly anchored to Bitcoin’s security layer, making it possible to create lending protocols, decentralized exchanges, derivatives, stablecoins, and more — all natively secured by BTC.
The trust-minimized BitVM Bridge makes these contracts interoperable with other blockchains, while Rollups ensure they can scale to millions of users. Add YBTC to the mix, and you get a yield-bearing base asset that can be integrated across countless protocols.
This is not just a technical improvement — it’s a strategic shift. It means developers no longer have to choose between building in DeFi and building on Bitcoin. They can do both, at scale, with security that no other chain can match.
