Key Features of @BitlayerLabs
The most notable capabilities of Bitlayer include:
Bitcoin-Level Security with Fraud Proofs
Leveraging BitVM and OP‑DLC protocols, Bitlayer anchors transaction validity directly to the Bitcoin blockchain. This design avoids reliance on third-party custodians or multisig schemes, ensuring funds remain under Bitcoin’s robust PoW security model.
Turing-Complete Smart Contracts on Bitcoin
Bitlayer’s BitVM-based optimistic rollup supports full Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility, enabling developers to port Solidity-based applications—and potentially Move or Cairo programs—onto a Bitcoin-secured layer with minimal code changes.
Trust-Minimized Multi‑Chain Asset Bridge
The integrated BitVM Bridge allows secure cross-chain transfers of Bitcoin assets (e.g. wBTC, cbBTC) without centralized intermediaries. The protocol uses fraud-proof verification and OP‑DLC oracles to ensure trust-minimized bridging between Bitcoin and EVM-compatible chains like Base, Arbitrum, and Sui.
