@BitlayerLabs #Bitlayer Bitlayer Presents BitVM Bridge Mainnet: Transform Bitcoin into Secure and Affordable DeFi

Jakarta, August 2025 — Bitlayer, the revolutionary Layer-2 platform based on BitVM, officially launches BitVM Bridge Mainnet. This bridge offers a trust-minimized solution to bridge Bitcoin liquidity to the DeFi ecosystem, allowing users to lock BTC in BitVM smart contracts and receive YBTC, a token pegged 1:1 with BTC—expanding access to DeFi without the risk of centralized custodianship.

Key advantages of BitVM Bridge:

Securing BTC through smart contracts with mechanisms that enable honest participants to detect attempts of fraud.

YBTC expands DeFi opportunities such as staking, lending, trading, and liquidity provision, similar to wrapped BTC—but without dependence on centralized entities.
