Bitlayer Expands Bitcoin's (BTC) Reach to New Multichain Ecosystems

An increasing number of L1s and L2s are integrating Bitcoin into their ecosystems, showcasing user enthusiasm for Bitcoin's adoption.

An increasing number of L1s and L2s are integrating Bitcoin into their ecosystems, showcasing user enthusiasm for Bitcoin’s adoption. And today, Bitlayer has taken actions to connect a multichain ecosystem with a fully diluted valuation of over tens of billions of dollars through the BitVM integration which brings new opportunities for users who wish to unlock the potential for earning rewards on their Bitcoin holdings.

Bitlayer completed the integration with five leading blockchains: Base, Starknet, Arbitrum, Sonic, and Plume Network.

Base

The Bitlayer BitVM Bridge is now connecting Bitcoin and Base, ultimately supercharging Bitcoin’s liquidity on the network. As one of the most popular L1 chains, Base is actively integrating cbBTC, which enables Bitcoin holders to use their BTC across EVM-compatible blockchain ecosystems.

The integration will allow for the seamless transfer of value between the two chains, enabling users to easily move their Bitcoin holdings to and from Base. It will also open up new possibilities for cross-chain DeFi applications, as users will be able to access and utilize various DeFi protocols on both chains with their BTC.

The Bitlayer team has also been working tirelessly with the Base team to ensure optimal integration and support for the cbBTC initiative. Together, they are aiming to facilitate a smooth and efficient transition for all users interested in accessing Base's ecosystem with their BTC holdings.

Arbitrum

The Bitlayer BitVM Bridge is also integrating with Arbitrum, a leading Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution focused on optimistic rollups, in a move that will bring new opportunities for users who wish to unlock the potential for earning rewards on their Bitcoin holdings.

The integration with Arbitrum will enable users to seamlessly bridge the Bitcoin to Arbitrum ecosystem and allow for the sharing of liquidity among supported protocols.

The Bitlayer team has been working closely with the Arbitrum team to ensure seamless integration and support for the BitVM Bridge. Together, they are aiming to facilitate a smooth and efficient transition for all users interested in accessing Arbitrum's ecosystem with their BTC holdings.

The integration will also open up new possibilities for cross-chain DeFi applications, as users will be able to access and utilize various DeFi protocols on both chains with their BTC.

The Bitlayer BitVM Bridge will be integrating with Starknet, a permissionless decentralized ZK-rollup, to provide seamless bridging capabilities for the Bitcoin to Starknet ecosystem.

The integration with Starknet will enable users to seamlessly bridge the Bitcoin to Starknet ecosystem and allow for the sharing of liquidity among supported protocols.

The Bitlayer team is working closely with the Starknet team to ensure seamless integration and support for the BitVM Bridge. Together, they are aiming to facilitate a smooth and efficient transition for all users interested in accessing Starknet's ecosystem with their BTC holdings.

The integration will also open up new possibilities for cross-chain DeFi applications, as users will be able to access and utilize various DeFi protocols on both chains with their BTC.

Plume Network

The integration between Bitlayer BitVM Bridge and Plume Network — the first full-stack Layer 1 Real World Asset (RWA) Chain and ecosystem purpose-built for RWAFi —will achieve optimal liquidity for diverse use cases from the Bitcoin ecosystem. Together, Bitlayer and Plume are advancing RWAs as a cornerstone for bringing institutional-grade products.

The Bitlayer team has been working closely with the Plume Network team to ensure seamless integration and support for the BitVM Bridge. Together, they are aiming to facilitate a smooth and efficient transition for all users interested in accessing Plume Network's ecosystem with their BTC holdings.

The integration will also open up new possibilities for cross-chain DeFi applications, as users will be able to access and utilize various DeFi protocols on both chains with their BTC.

Sonic

The integration between Bitlayer BitVM Bridge and Sonic, the first SVM to launch on Solana, for games and applications. Powering Web3 TikTok App Layer – onboarding next billion users.

The Bitlayer team is working closely with the Sonic team to ensure seamless integration and support for the BitVM Bridge. Together, they are aiming to facilitate a smooth and efficient transition for all users interested in accessing Sonic's ecosystem with their BTC holdings.

The integration will also open up new possibilities for cross-chain DeFi applications, as users will be able to access and utilize various DeFi protocols on both chains with their BTC.

Implementing BitVM Through Strategic Integration Frameworks

Bitlayer pioneers Bitcoin’s evolution as the first team to implement BitVM, unlocking native programmability and scalability without forks. Inherently integrating with the BitcoinVM (BitVM) and merging unparalleled security with a lightning-fast smart contract engine, Bitlayer unlocks the full potential of Bitcoin DeFi.

Bitlayer's BitVM Bridge stands as a transformative innovation in Bitcoin bridging technology, meticulously developed by Bitlayer and underpinned by the advanced BitVM paradigm.

The integration will be unfolding in a phased approach, with the initial stage focusing on connecting Base, Starknet, Arbitrum,
