EMURGO and BitcoinOS Grail Bridge Cardano and Bitcoin Blockchains
Oct 25, 2024 at 12:13 am
There have been talks of expansion within the Cardano blockchain for several months. In line with the community's expectations, EMURGO, the commercial arm of Input Output Global, has partnered with BitcoinOS to launch a bridge for the layer-1 network.
Months of talks regarding expansion within the Cardano blockchain have finally come to fruition. In a groundbreaking move, EMURGO, the commercial arm of Input Output Global, has partnered with BitcoinOS to launch a bridge for the layer-1 network.
As uncovered on X, the Cardano and Bitcoin blockchains will now connect via the BitcoinOS Grail Bridge. This move positions Cardano as the first to integrate with BOS infrastructure, aiming to enhance Bitcoin's capabilities.
This makes Cardano the first major Layer 1 blockchain to plug into BOS infrastructure, opening its ecosystem of crypto features to Bitcoin’s immense capital. 💰This isn’t just a tech milestone; it’s the homecoming of the biggest names in crypto back to Bitcoin. 🏠🌎
Despite being the first blockchain protocol, Bitcoin has some limitations, including a lack of advanced smart contract functionality. This has led to innovations, such as using smart contract capabilities from other platforms to enhance Bitcoin's possibilities.
The BitcoinOS Grail to Cardano Bridge will enable liquidity flow between both chains, providing users with the combined benefits of proof-of-work (PoW) and proof-of-stake (PoS) offerings. The BitcoinOS protocol also highlights the use of zero-knowledge cryptography in the Grail Bridge.
This integration introduces an element of privacy and security, ensuring that users utilizing the Grail Bridge experience no major tradeoffs from the protocols they currently operate on.
Impact on Cardano's price
Cardano is known for its versatility and focus on mass adoption. Earlier, a peer-reviewed study hinted at a possible BTC-ADA staking model through the Babylon protocol.
If most of the innovations Cardano is pursuing materialize, they could fuel adoption and increase demand for ADA. This can have a significant impact on the coin's price in the long term, as more users seeking to connect to BTC could drive up its valuation.
At the time of writing, the price of Cardano is $0.3427, showing a 3.21% decrease in 24 hours. The losses recorded recently have been steeper; however, the coin is recovering and may chart positive growth following the BitcoinOS integration news.
