The cooperation between @BitlayerLabs and Binance can be traced back to December 2024, when Bitlayer announced the joint launch of the BTCFi Carnival event with Binance Wallet. This is a six-week carnival-style event that introduces 2-3 BTCFi projects each week (such as Pell Network, Bedrock DeFi, etc.), with a total reward pool of 1.2 million USDT worth of BTR tokens (Bitlayer's native token). This event marks the beginning of Binance's strong support for Bitcoin Layer 2 projects, helping Bitlayer attract Binance's massive user base.
July 2025: The Booster event is launched. Bitlayer collaborates with Binance Wallet to launch a multi-phase Booster event, where users earn BTR rewards by completing social tasks, holding Bitlayer BTC, or minting BitVM SBT (Soul-Bound Token). The first phase (July 24-30) requires users to hold at least 61 Binance Alpha Points, sharing 5.7 million BTR. The event also includes collaborations with other chains (such as BNB Chain, Sui Network, Avalanche), emphasizing cross-chain interoperability. Subsequent phases expand to special events, such as Create2Earn (creating content on Binance Square) and sharing 900,000 BTR by holding the Lucky Helmet NFT.
August 2025: Pre-TGE (Pre-Token Generation Event) event. Bitlayer's BTR token undergoes Pre-TGE on Binance Wallet, where users can participate through subscriptions, raising a total of $400,000 BNB and distributing 20 million BTR (2% of total supply) at a price equivalent to $0.02 in BNB. This is a gamified event aimed at increasing user engagement before the official TGE and paving the way for the potential listing of BTR.
In addition, in July 2025, Bitlayer collaborated with Web3WithBinance, allowing Binance users to directly explore the Bitlayer ecosystem. By August, Binance Square's CreatorPad collaborated with Booster, making Bitlayer the first project to go live, where users can share 100,000 BTR through content creation.
Through Binance's platform, Bitlayer's TVL (Total Value Locked) and user count surged. The cooperation unlocked the DeFi potential of Bitcoin, such as seamless bridging to EVM-compatible chains, attracting collaborations with mining pools (like Antpool, F2Pool). The Pre-TGE event for the BTR token also paved the way for its potential listing on Binance, with many influencers predicting that BTR will be listed before the end of 2025.
