Every language reveals a way of seeing. Bitcoin speaks in UTXOs and headers, brief and spare sentences anchored to work. Ethereum speaks in contracts and state, long expressive paragraphs that can revise themselves through logic. For years these tongues met only at translation booths, bridges and relays and wrapped assets and oracles that asked you to trust the interpreter. Hemi proposes something quieter and more durable: teach the machine to be bilingual. Not a gloss, but native comprehension, an EVM that can read Bitcoin as if it were its own.
That is the point of the hVM. Under the hood, the environment you know with accounts, opcodes, and gas gains a new sense: Bitcoin awareness. Hemi embeds a fully indexed Bitcoin node, its Tiny Bitcoin daemon, directly alongside the EVM. It syncs over Bitcoin peer-to-peer and indexes blocks up to a protocol-defined height. When a Hemi sequencer produces a block, it may include a Bitcoin Attributes Deposited transaction that conveys new headers into the protocol. All Hemi nodes ingest those headers at the same Hemi block height, so the network advances with a shared processed Bitcoin view. Determinism is preserved; every node evaluates Bitcoin-aware contracts against the same snapshot of reality.
For developers, that snapshot becomes a primitive. hVM introduces precompiled contracts, purpose-built entry points that smart contracts can call to fetch data from the embedded Bitcoin view. Instead of scraping from an oracle or trusting a relayer, a contract can request to see the header at height N, verify a Merkle inclusion, check whether a UTXO is unspent, or surface metadata about an Ordinal or a BRC20 transfer observed at a confirmed height. The result is not merely convenience but a shift in trust, because what the contract sees is part of the state transition itself, not an off-chain rumor stitched in later.
The Hemi Bitcoin Kit, or hBK, wraps this power in a developer-friendly shape. Passthrough helpers serialize and deserialize the byte-heavy structures of Bitcoin so that your Solidity stays readable. Today you reach straight for the precompiles; tomorrow enhanced functions compose multiple queries and light processing into higher-level calls. Either way, you author in EVM idioms, and the kit handles the grammar of headers, proofs, and UTXOs without asking you to become a Bitcoin core wizard.
A bilingual machine changes what is reasonable to build. A lending protocol can accept native BTC as collateral while proving on-chain that a deposit really exists and remains unspent at a particular confirmation depth. A settlement vault can release funds only if a specific Bitcoin transaction lands, resisting spoofed signals because the proof path and header chain are read inside the VM. Market infrastructure can key auctions or liquidations to Bitcoin's objective clock, confirmations, rather than to a sequencer's goodwill. Even culture layers such as Ordinals and BRC20 become first-class signals in EVM logic, mint gates and distribution schedules and cross-collection mechanics that respond to events observed on Bitcoin itself.
Security is not hand waving around these reads; it is structural. The Processed Bitcoin View moves in lockstep with Hemi blocks, so contract behavior is reproducible across nodes. And beyond reading Bitcoin, Hemi writes to it. Proof-of-proof miners periodically publish Hemi state proofs to Bitcoin, letting Hemi's fork choice borrow an external work-backed compass. As Bitcoin confirmations accrue, the cost of contradicting what contracts have already acted upon rises from inconvenient to prohibitive. No design erases latency; Bitcoin finality unfolds in minutes, but hVM makes the lag explicit and programmable. You can decide how many confirmations your contract requires before a state change is allowed, price that time into your mechanism, and expose it to users as a clear commitment.
There are subtleties, and they matter. What if a sequencer lags in feeding headers? The protocols Bitcoin Attributes Deposited transactions and synchronized processing make the visible horizon explicit, so your contract knows which Bitcoin height is authoritative at that moment. What about reorgs. You can gate sensitive actions behind depth thresholds that match risk appetite, using the same numbers trading desks already reason about. And because the reads are precompiled inside the EVM, they obey gas accounting and determinism like any other call, which means you can benchmark, bound, and audit them.
The texture for operators is intentionally familiar. You still pay gas in ETH. You still write Solidity, test with your EVM toolkit, and deploy with the pipelines you trust. Under that comfortable surface, however, the machine is different. Blocks in Hemi arrive in their own cadence, headers are ingested at protocol-defined points, and the combined system treats Bitcoin as a source of truth rather than an external suggestion.
Philosophically, this is less about hybridity than about honesty. If a contract's outcome depends on whether a Bitcoin transaction is real, the contract should be able to check the chain itself, not ask a friend. If a network claims finality, it should anchor that claim in a place adversaries cannot cheaply rewrite. hVM is a statement that the cleanest bridge is understanding, and that understanding is safest when it is part of a consensus.
There is a quiet dignity to that approach. It refuses spectacle, favors verifiability, and leaves room for craft. Builders get a wider canvas without fresher attack surfaces, institutions get proofs they can audit and timelines they can price, and users get applications that keep their promises because those promises are enforced by realities that behave like physics, hashes, headers, and time. An EVM that speaks Bitcoin is not a stunt. It is a new grammar for value, one in which two languages finally share a common meaning.

Tôi lần đầu tiên gặp Morpho giống như bạn gặp một thành phố được điều hành tốt: bằng cách lang thang trên những con phố của nó và nhận ra rằng giao thông di chuyển vì các quy tắc rõ ràng. Không có quầy. Không có nhân viên. Giá trị chảy qua hợp đồng, không phải qua lòng tốt. Morpho là một nền tảng mở, hiệu quả, và kiên cường nơi bất kỳ ai cũng có thể kiếm lợi suất hoặc vay tài sản, và nơi các nhà xây dựng tạo ra những khu vực mới—thị trường, kho tài sản được tuyển chọn, ứng dụng—trên một nền tảng không cần sự cho phép. Bạn có thể vào qua giao diện chính, qua các ứng dụng trong hệ sinh thái rộng lớn hơn, hoặc qua các nhà thám hiểm nếu bạn muốn đọc chuỗi chính nó; ba cánh cửa, một bộ quy tắc.
