Bitlayer's Technological Philosophy: Reshaping the Bitcoin Ecosystem through Sticking and Breaking Through
In the blockchain industry, technological innovation often faces a dilemma between 'sticking to underlying values' and 'breaking through functional limitations', while Bitlayer's technological philosophy has found a clever balance between the two — neither undermining the native advantages of Bitcoin nor breaking through its functional boundaries through innovation, ultimately achieving an ecological effect of '1+1>2'.
The core of this philosophy is reflected in the absolute adherence to the 'safety baseline'. From the very beginning of its design, Bitlayer has made it clear that all innovations must be built on the secure foundation of Bitcoin. To this end, it adopts a strategy of 'not touching the main chain code' and constructs verification logic on the main chain through BitVM technology, ensuring that every transaction on Layer 2 can receive indirect verification from Bitcoin's entire network of nodes. This 'parasitic expansion' model ensures that the security of Layer 2 is completely derived from the main chain, without additional trust risks. For example, when users transfer assets on Bitlayer, the final validity is still guaranteed by the computational power of the Bitcoin main chain, consistent with the security level of direct transactions on the main chain. This design eliminates users' concerns about the 'insecurity of layer expansion assets', laying a trust foundation for ecological expansion.
