Bitlayer Labs — The Bitcoin DeFi Engine
Bitlayer’s real bet is making Bitcoin the settlement layer for high-speed DeFi.
The Levers They’re Pulling:
• Trust-minimized BitVM bridging → no custodians.
• Composable Bitcoin-native apps → yield, swaps, lending.
• Rollup throughput aimed at rivaling EVM L2s.
Why It’s Big:
If they crack scalability without losing BTC’s trust guarantees, they win the BTC L2 race
