Bitlayer — Powering the Future of Bitcoin DeFi
Bitcoin is the most secure and trusted blockchain in the world — but until now, its potential in decentralized finance has been limited. Bitlayer is here to change that. By combining Bitcoin’s native security with high-speed, scalable infrastructure, Bitlayer is unlocking new ways for Bitcoin to power the next wave of financial innovation.
Built on Bitcoin’s Security
Every application and transaction on Bitlayer is anchored to the unmatched reliability of the Bitcoin network. This ensures that users can interact with DeFi protocols and cross-chain applications without compromising the trust and resilience that Bitcoin is known for.
The BitVM Bridge — Secure, Trust-Minimized Interoperability
At the heart of Bitlayer is the BitVM Bridge, a groundbreaking gateway that connects Bitcoin to other blockchain ecosystems in a trust-minimized way. It allows assets to move seamlessly between networks, giving users access to the best features across chains while keeping their foundation firmly secured by Bitcoin.
Introducing YBTC — Yield-Bearing Bitcoin
Bitlayer takes Bitcoin utility to the next level with YBTC, a yield-bearing Bitcoin asset. With YBTC, holders can earn rewards without selling their BTC, keeping full exposure to Bitcoin’s price while benefiting from DeFi-based yield generation. This innovation transforms BTC from a purely store-of-value asset into one that can generate income — opening new opportunities for investors, traders, and long-term holders alike.
Why Bitlayer Matters
By merging Bitcoin’s security with DeFi’s flexibility, Bitlayer is creating a future where BTC is more than just digital gold — it’s a productive, income-generating cornerstone of the decentralized economy.
With Bitlayer, Bitcoin’s potential is no longer limited to holding. It’s about building, earning, and expanding across the decentralized financial landscape
