Bitlayer Series ⑦: The Challenge as a Moat: Bitlayer Takes on the 'Toughest Bone'
The biggest challenge for BTCFi lies in security, especially in cross-chain correctness and state validation. Bitlayer has chosen to first tackle the hardest link: using BitVM and challenge-based verification to compress the attack surface, and then leveraging high-performance Rollups to handle diverse scenarios. When the difficult tasks are done correctly, the replacement cost becomes high; the combination of security and performance creates a moat that is hardest to replicate for infrastructure.
@BitlayerLabs #Bitlayer What can be replicated is the code, but what is hard to replicate is the time, data, and the engineering team's experience in handling extreme scenarios. The moat comes from 'long-term presence' and 'continuous correction', and these two points are the hardest to shortcut. Bitlayer pushes the defense line forward with practical accumulation.
The above approach tries to minimize complexity at the protocol and tool levels without sacrificing Bitcoin's native security, allowing participants to enter with lower cognitive and time costs. The seemingly 'slow' accumulation is precisely the main part of the moat. Without a long-term presence, there cannot be true defensibility. The patient stacking of details will eventually present itself as solid capacity and reputation over the long term.
In summary, this approach prioritizes security, sinks complexity into protocols and tools, and abstracts benefits into reusable primitives, enabling users, developers, and institutions to collaborate within the same order.
