Bitlayer: The first L2 based on Bitcoin zero-knowledge proof. Why will it ignite the trillion-dollar BTCFi market?
@BitlayerLabs Through the integration of BitVM + ZK Rollup, it first achieves Turing-complete smart contract capabilities on Bitcoin while inheriting the security of the Bitcoin mainnet. The core breakthroughs are:
Native Bitcoin Verification: All ZK proofs are verified by Bitcoin scripts (not Ethereum bridging), eliminating cross-chain asset risks;
5 Seconds Certainty: The Bitlayer-Rollup, based on the Optimistic challenge mechanism, is 10 times faster than the Lightning Network;
100% EVM Equivalent: Seamless migration for top DApps like Uniswap and Aave, with zero learning cost for developers.
Data Verification: The ecological explosion is in progress
Testnet Frenzy: Attracting 26 million transactions, leading projects of the Ordinals and Runes protocols (such as @Runestone_btc) have been deployed;
Institutional Bets: OKX Ventures and HashKey led a $15 million investment, and Binance Labs included it in their incubation program;
Airdrop Expectations: The mainnet launch is imminent (Q3 2025), and interactive addresses may receive $BTL airdrops (referencing the Merlin model).
Three Major Value Pillars of the $BTL Token
On-chain Fuel: All transactions and ZK proof generation consume $BTL;
Dual Staking Security: Validators need to stake $BTL + BTC (non-encapsulated) to participate in the network, capturing dual returns;
Governance Power: Voting to decide protocol upgrades (e.g., supporting RGB protocol, adjusting transaction fees).
💡 Token Distribution: A total of 2 billion tokens, with 30% airdropped to early users and ecological contributors (DApp developers, liquidity providers).
Wealth Code: How to capture Alpha opportunities?
Short-term Strategy: Participate in testnet cross-chain interactions (tutorials on the official website) to seize airdrop weight;
Mid-term Layout: Stake $BTL after the mainnet launch to earn security rewards (APR estimated at 120%+);
Long-term Bet: If TVL exceeds $5 billion, the valuation may benchmark $STX (current FDV is only 1/5).
