In order to promote the prosperity of the Bitcoin Layer2 ecosystem, a comprehensive developer support system has been built, reducing developers' development and operational costs in all aspects, from technical tools and financial support to traffic integration, attracting more teams to build DeFi applications based on its Rollup network.
On the technical level, Bitlayer provides three core tools: first, an EVM-compatible development kit that includes smart contract templates, testnet nodes, and on-chain data analysis tools, allowing developers to directly reuse their Ethereum ecosystem development experience; second, the open API of BitVM Bridge, which supports third-party applications to quickly integrate cross-chain functionality, enabling seamless transfer of BTC and multi-chain assets; third, the development documentation and SDK of YBTC, which simplifies the development process for functions such as asset mapping, staking, and redemption.
On the financial and resource level, Bitlayer has established a $10 million developer fund, focusing on supporting high-quality projects in areas such as lending, DEX, yield aggregation, and RWA, with eligible teams able to receive up to $500,000 in funding support; at the same time, partnerships with Layer1 networks like Base and Sui share traffic resources to provide user diversion and market promotion support for newly launched applications.
