Bitlayer: Unlocking Bitcoin’s Full Potential for DeFi, Smart Contracts & Real-World Utility 🔗⚡
Bitlayer is transforming Bitcoin from a passive store of value into an active, programmable asset. Through BitVM, it introduces smart contracts on Bitcoin, enabling users to participate in DeFi, mint NFTs, and build composable apps — all powered by native BTC, not wrapped tokens.
Speed, Security & Low Costs Combined 🚀
Bitlayer uses a PoS settlement layer to deliver fast, near-instant confirmations while batching rollup data back to Bitcoin for final settlement security. This balances high performance with Bitcoin’s unmatched trust model, making DeFi on BTC finally practical.

150K+ daily transactions processed
300+ active projects built on the network
$550M+ in TVL secured
