Core Innovations & Integrations

• BitVM Bridge: A trust-minimized gateway allowing seamless transfer of BTC into ecosystems like Base, Arbitrum, Starknet, Sonic, and Plume Network—facilitating liquidity flow and decentralized finance opportunities across chains.  Mining Pool Partnerships: Collaboration with Antpool, F2Pool, and SpiderPool ensures that Non-Standard Transactions (NSTs) crucial for BitVM are reliably included in Bitcoin blocks—solving a key deployment barrier. 

• Robust Ecosystem Growth:

• Achieved ~$639M in TVL, nearly 37M transactions, and over 753,000 wallet addresses by early 2025. 

• Integrated live with Chainlink’s CCIP and RISC Zero’s zkVM to enhance proof privacy, batching, and data efficiency. 

Token Name: BTR — native utility and governance token

• Total Supply: 1 billion tokens 

• Usage:

• Staking & Node Voting — Secure network consensus and participate in governance.

• Governance — Propose and vote on network upgrades, protocol parameters, and tokenomics.

• Fee Switch — Govern how protocol fees are allocated—toward staker rewards or buybacks.
