#bouncebit @BounceBit BounceBit is an innovative Bitcoin restaking Layer-1 blockchain (dubbed a “CeDeFi” platform) that lets BTC holders earn yield via a unique blend of centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi)—all while maintaining security through a dual-token PoS system.    
Key Pillars:
• BTC Restaking Mechanism: Users deposit BTC (including WBTC and BTCB) via regulated custodians like Ceffu or Mainnet Digital, receiving BBTC (a 1:1 pegged token). BBTC can then be restaked to earn yield without compromising liquidity.   
• Dual-Token PoS Security: Validators stake both BBTC and BounceBit’s native token, Genesis & Funding: Launched in late 2023 by founder Jack Lu (formerly of NGC Ventures), BounceBit raised $6M in seed funding—backed by Blockchain Capital, Breyer Capital, OKX Ventures, and others.   
• TVL & Mainnet Launch: Within weeks of early access, BounceBit amassed over $545M in TVL. Its mainnet launched in May 2024, featuring BB token distribution, staking modules, and yield tools.     
• Token: $BB: Launched at mainnet, the BB token serves multiple roles—as gas, yield incentive, governance token, access passport for premium products, and as part of their “Hybrid Platform Token” mod Core Function
