Bitlayer — Powering the Future of Bitcoin DeFi
Bitcoin is the world’s most trusted blockchain, but its role has been limited to being a store of value and payment system. Bitlayer is unlocking the next chapter for Bitcoin by building a powerful DeFi infrastructure that combines security, scalability, and innovation — giving Bitcoin a new purpose in decentralized finance.
Security at the Core
Every transaction and application on Bitlayer inherits the unmatched reliability of Bitcoin’s native security. This ensures that users can access advanced DeFi opportunities without compromising trust or decentralization.
BitVM Bridge – Trust-Minimized Connectivity
At the center of Bitlayer’s ecosystem lies the BitVM Bridge — a secure, trust-minimized gateway between Bitcoin and other blockchain networks. With this bridge, assets can flow seamlessly across ecosystems, unlocking cross-chain liquidity and interoperability while preserving Bitcoin’s security foundation.
This eliminates the need for centralized custodians, ensuring a true decentralized connection between Bitcoin and the broader blockchain economy.
YBTC – Yield-Bearing Bitcoin
Bitlayer introduces YBTC, a revolutionary yield-bearing version of Bitcoin. Holders of YBTC can earn rewards on their BTC without selling it, gaining yield while maintaining full exposure to Bitcoin’s value.
By integrating YBTC into DeFi protocols, Bitcoin evolves from being just a store of value into a productive, income-generating asset — expanding its utility across the global DeFi landscape.
The Future of Bitcoin DeFi
With its combination of security, cross-chain interoperability, and yield innovation, Bitlayer is shaping a new era for Bitcoin.
No longer just passive capital, Bitcoin becomes active capital — powering decentralized finance, driving liquidity, and creating sustainable opportunities for users worldwide.
