BounceBit is not simply implementing a traditional Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism — they are redesigning the security economics of the network. They introduce a Multi-Stake Architecture, which combines three independent layers of protection, forming a nearly impenetrable security triangle.

🟠 Layer 1: Bitcoin (BBTC) — Real Value, Real Cost

To become a validator, it is required to stake BBTC (wrapped Bitcoin on BounceBit).

Bottom line:

  • BTC is “hard money” — it has real value, is scarce, and is globally recognized.

  • Requiring BTC stake makes it really costly for any attacker, not just the internal tokens that can be created.

  • This creates an extremely high financial barrier, as any fraudulent behavior results in the loss of real BTC.

🟢 Layer 2: BB Token — Internal Economic Responsibility

In addition to BBTC, validators must also stake BB — BounceBit's native token.

  • If the validator violates, both BTC and BB will be slashed.

  • This dual-token slashing model puts validators at double risk.

  • Losing both BTC (real value) and BB (impact on position in the ecosystem) ensures that every validator has a vested interest in the network.

🔵 Layer 3: Ethereum AVS — Off-Chain Monitoring

The breakthrough lies in BounceBit's integration with EigenLayer's Actively Validated Services (AVS) on Ethereum.

  • ETH stakers become external “gatekeepers”, independent of the BounceBit ecosystem.

  • They have the right to monitor the performance of the BounceBit validator.

  • If they detect cheating, they trigger the slashing and get rewarded.

This means that a bad validator would not only have to bypass the BTC and BB barriers, but also bypass the decentralized monitoring network on Ethereum.

🧠 Why Does This Mechanism Work?

Three layers of security come from three independent systems:

  1. BTC → Real asset value, strong economic barriers.

  2. BB → Link internal interests, increase commitment.

  3. Ethereum AVS → External, neutral and decentralized monitoring force.

When combined:

  • BTC prevents attacks at real cost.

  • BB maintains internal cohesion.

  • AVS ensures objective external monitoring.

The result: a security triangle that is redundant, tight, and difficult to break.

🗨️ Conclusion

Is this an overly complex security model or the impenetrable shield of the crypto world? In a climate of increasing risk, staking where BTC, BB, and ETH converge may be the safest option — even if the entry requirements are not easy.
