According to ChainCatcher, Bitcoin-native ZK Rollup network GOAT Network has announced that it has accumulated 34 BTC, officially launching it as the Ecosystem Pilot Fund. GOAT Network claims to be the first Bitcoin Layer 2 network to launch an ecological incentive mechanism with native BTC.
The fund aims to promote the sustainable implementation of Bitcoin-native zkRollup application ecology, with funds primarily used to support protocol liquidity, community incentives, and developer contribution rewards. Currently, over 2 BTC have been used for the liquidity pool and sustainable yield distribution mechanism, and have been distributed to community participants.
GOAT Network states that this 34 BTC ecological pilot fund is just the starting point of the Bitcoin-native incentive system. Next, the project will launch a complete Ecosystem Development Fund, which will include open funding applications, milestone-based support, and incentive mechanisms for long-term contributors, injecting sustainable growth momentum into the Bitcoin ecosystem.
