The Strong Alliance Between Binance and #Bitlayer : Why This is the Key Turning Point for BTCFi
Collaborations in the crypto space are common, but few can truly drive industry transformation. The deep connection between Binance and #Bitlayer is undoubtedly a standout— it not only accelerates the release of Bitcoin's DeFi potential but may also become the key turning point for BTCFi to transition from 'concept' to 'implementation'.
The starting point of this collaboration can be traced back to December 2024's BTCFi Carnival. This six-week event introduced 2-3 BTCFi projects each week, with a total reward pool of 1.2 million USDT equivalent in BTR, successfully attracting a massive user base from Binance to #Bitlayer . The Booster event launched in July 2025 further enhanced user participation: users earned BTR through holding Alpha Points, minting SBT, and content creation. In the first phase, 5.7 million BTR were distributed, and this 'play-to-earn' model quickly activated the ecosystem.
The collaboration between @BitlayerLabs and Binance goes beyond the user level. The Web3WithBinance partnership allows Binance users to directly explore the Bitlayer ecosystem; the CreatorPad of Binance Square interacts with Booster, enabling content creators to share in 100,000 BTR; and the Pre-TGE event in August raised $400,000 in BNB through Binance Wallet, paving the way for the potential listing of BTR. This multi-dimensional, deep-level cooperation has led to explosive growth in Bitlayer’s TVL and user base.
The technical strength of #Bitlayer provides a solid foundation for collaboration. Its Bitcoin Rollup architecture allows transactions to be executed efficiently on Layer 2, with state anchoring on the mainnet ensuring security; the BitVM Bridge achieves trust-minimized conversion between Bitcoin and YBTC, solving cross-chain friction. These technologies, combined with Binance's traffic, funds, and ecosystem resources, produce a result where 1+1 is far greater than 2— not only enabling Bitcoin to seamlessly enter EVM chains for DeFi participation but also attracting top mining pools like Antpool and F2Pool, forming a dual support of 'computing power + traffic'.
The cooperation between @BitlayerLabs and Binance essentially combines 'security infrastructure' with 'ecosystem amplifier'. When Bitcoin's security attributes meet Binance's user and capital advantages, and when #Bitlayer 's technological breakthroughs encounter Binance's platform resources, BTCFi finally has the potential for large-scale implementation.
