The governance of Bitlayer is based on the CIP (Chainbase Improvement Proposal) process, where any BTR holder can submit a proposal, which is automatically executed by smart contracts after being approved by community voting. For example, the CIP-003 proposal passed in Q2 2025 reduced the cross-chain bridge fee from 0.1% to 0.05%, directly driving a 120% increase in BTR's average daily trading volume. This 'code is law' governance model completely breaks the drawbacks of traditional project centralization, making BTR holders the true owners of the network.
Community Incentives: From Airdrops to Value Co-creation
Bitlayer's Airdrop program is not a simple token distribution, but a practice of 'contribution mining'. The Booster incentive program launched in July 2025 releases 30 million BTR (3% of the total supply) through tasks such as 'cross-chain interaction' and 'DApp usage'. Users can earn BTR rewards by completing tasks, while creating real value for the ecosystem. More innovatively, Bitlayer has designed a 'Lucky Helmet' mechanism for long-term holders, allowing users who hold for over 180 days to unlock exclusive tasks and higher rewards. This 'time-weighted' strategy has increased community user retention by 40%. #Bitlayer @BitlayerLabs
