🚀 Bitlayer: Transforming Bitcoin from 'Digital Gold' to 'Programmable Finance'
Bitcoin has been around for 15 years, and its security and value storage are undisputed, but it has often been criticized for being 'not flexible enough.' Bitlayer is attempting to give Bitcoin an 'intelligent brain' with BitVM technology, directly bringing it into the era of DeFi, NFTs, and RWAs.
🔑 Highlights Overview:
BitVM Virtual Machine: EVM fully compatible, smart contract execution efficiency improved by 3-5 times, on-chain load reduced by 67%.
Cross-chain Bridge Innovation: 1-of-N trust model + operator capital provision + challenge incentives, significantly enhancing security and experience; already integrated with Base, Starknet, Sui, and others.
Ecosystem Progress:
• Stablecoin bitUSD, attracting 47,000 participants in the mining festival;
• NFT series Lucky Helmet sold out upon launch;
• Collaboration with Plume Network to put real estate, supply chain finance, and other assets on-chain.
Roadmap:
• V1: PoS sidechain, TVL of $500 million;
• V2: BitVM Rollup, security close to Bitcoin main chain;
• V3 (end of 2025): 20,000 TPS, 3 seconds confirmation, hardware acceleration.
🌐 Industry Insight:
Bitlayer does not intend to create a new chain but stands on the 15-year security foundation of Bitcoin to directly evolve it into a 'programmable financial network.'
This may mean that BTC is not just 'digital gold' but the underlying layer of a new global financial operating system.
👉 If you missed Ethereum last time, could Bitlayer be the true breakout point for the Bitcoin ecosystem this time?
