Bitlayer & the BitVM Bridge: Redefining Bitcoin Layer 2

The Bitcoin ecosystem is evolving beyond store-of-value narratives — and Bitlayer is at the heart of this transformation. Its flagship innovation, the BitVM Bridge, has made history as one of the earliest projects built on BitVM to achieve a live mainnet deployment.

For years, Bitcoin has faced scalability and interoperability challenges. While Ethereum and other blockchains expanded through Layer 2 solutions, Bitcoin remained limited in transaction speed and smart contract capabilities. The BitVM Bridge changes that, unlocking:

▫️Seamless bridging between Bitcoin and other ecosystems.

▫️Low-cost, high-speed transactions without sacrificing Bitcoin’s security.

▫️Cross-chain interoperability that expands Bitcoin’s role beyond simple transfers.#Bitlayer
