In the eyes of traditional financial institutions, Bitcoin ETFs solve the problem of investment channels, but the true long-term value lies in on-chain financialization. The emergence of Bitlayer allows institutions to see this possibility.
As the BTCFi infrastructure, Bitlayer not only supports individual users but is also inherently suitable for institutional needs. For example, through the YBTC model, Bitcoin can be mapped one-to-one into a tradable asset, used for on-chain collateral and settlement; through the BitVM Bridge, institutions can flexibly manage assets across different public chains without worrying about centralized custody risks.
It is precisely for this reason that Bitlayer has gained the favor of well-known institutions such as Franklin Templeton, Polychain, and Framework Ventures during its financing stage. These capitals are not just financial support but also signify that Bitlayer's architectural design can meet institutional-level security and compliance requirements.
If ETFs brought Bitcoin to Wall Street, then Bitlayer is expected to bring Bitcoin to the on-chain 'Wall Street.' The combination of institutional demand and on-chain finance is the true large market.
