Bitlayer的Charlie Hu讨论了比特币桥接技术的未来

在与Bitlayer的关键贡献者Charlie Hu的独家采访中，讨论了比特币桥接技术的未来

In a exclusive interview with BeInCrypto, Charlie Hu, a key contributor to Bitlayer, delves into the future of Bitcoin bridging technologies, including the Finality Bridge and the BitVM Bridge.

在对Betlayer的关键贡献者Charlie Hu的独家采访中，深入研究了比特币桥接技术的未来，包括Finality Bridge和BitVM Bridge。

These groundbreaking solutions aim to solve Bitcoin’s limitations in scalability, programmability, and DeFi integration, offering a more secure and efficient way to move Bitcoin assets across blockchain ecosystems.

这些开创性的解决方案旨在解决比特币在可伸缩性，可编程性和DEFI集成方面的限制，从而提供了一种更安全有效的方法，可以在区块链生态系统中移动比特币资产。

Hu elaborates on the technical differences between traditional multisig setups and the innovative trust-minimized approach offered by the BitVM Bridge. He also highlights how the Finality Bridge enables Bitcoin holders to engage in DeFi activities, ultimately contributing to the growth of the DeFi space and improving liquidity.

Hu详细阐述了传统的Multisig设置与BITVM Bridge提供的创新信任最小方法之间的技术差异。他还强调了最终桥梁如何使比特币持有人从事Defi活动，最终为Defi空间的增长做出了贡献并提高了流动性。

The Role of the Finality Bridge and BitVM Bridge

最终桥梁和BITVM桥的作用

The Finality Bridge and BitVM Bridge represent the next evolution in Bitcoin bridging technology. These solutions aim to enhance Bitcoin’s ability to interact with decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems, which has traditionally been a challenge due to Bitcoin’s lack of programmability.

最终桥梁和BITVM桥代表了比特币桥接技术的下一个演变。这些解决方案旨在增强比特币与分散财务（DEFI）生态系统互动的能力，由于比特币缺乏可编程性，传统上这是一个挑战。

Charlie Hu explains that the BitVM Bridge is the third generation of Bitcoin bridging solution technology.

查理·胡（Charlie Hu）解释说，BITVM桥是第三代比特币桥接解决方案技术。

“The BVM bridge is the third-generation Bitcoin bridging solution technology. We have wrapped Bitcoin, which relies on an older multisig setup—a federation of signers where the majority must be honest. However, it’s clear that we can’t rely on wrapped Bitcoin as a long-term bridging solution. We need a new generation of technology that is more trust-minimized and doesn’t depend on the current multisig structure to bridge Bitcoin liquidity from Bitcoin Layer 1 (L1) to EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) or other programmable environments,” Hu said.

“ BVM桥是第三代比特币桥接解决方案技术。我们包裹了比特币，该比特币依赖于较旧的Multisig设置，这是一个签名人联合会，大多数人必须是诚实的。但是，很明显，我们不能依靠包裹的比特币作为长期桥接解决方案。我们需要一种新一代的技术，该技术更具信任度最低，并且不取决于当前的多型结构，以将比特币流动性从比特币1（L1）（L1）桥接到EVM（以太坊虚拟机）或其他可编程环境。”

Previous systems, like wrapped Bitcoin, relied on older multisig setups, where a federation of signers needed to maintain honesty to ensure security. However, this structure has proven to be unreliable and exposes users to potential risks.

以前的系统，例如包裹的比特币，都依赖于较旧的Multisig设置，在该设置中，签名者需要保持诚实以确保安全性。但是，这种结构已被证明是不可靠的，并使用户面临潜在的风险。

“In contrast, the BitVM bridge is more trust-minimized. We only need to trust one signer to be honest, and that signer can unlock the funds through the two-way pegging mechanism,” Hu continues.

“相比之下，BITVM桥更加信任。我们只需要信任一个签名人诚实，该签名人可以通过双向固定机制解锁资金，”胡继续说道。

This improvement reduces the potential for malicious actors to compromise the system, addressing vulnerabilities exposed by recent incidents like the Bybit hack. Unlike wrapped Bitcoin, which relied heavily on multisig setups, the BitVM Bridge uses Bitcoin scripts and two-way pegging mechanisms to ensure more secure and efficient transactions between Bitcoin Layer 1 (L1) and Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) environments.

这种改善减少了恶意参与者损害该系统的潜力，解决了诸如Bybit Hack之类的最近事件所经历的漏洞。与包装的比特币不同，该比特币严重依赖于Multisig设置，BITVM Bridge使用比特币脚本和双向固定机制来确保比特币1（L1）和以太坊虚拟机（EVM）环境之间更安全有效的交易。

Enabling DeFi on Bitcoin

在比特币上启用Defi

The limitations of Bitcoin Layer 1 in enabling decentralized finance are well-known. Bitcoin L1 does not support smart contracts, meaning it cannot facilitate lending, automated market makers, decentralized exchanges, or any other DeFi activities. Bitcoin’s UTXO-based cash system is primarily designed for payments, but it struggles with scalability and versatility in more complex scenarios.

比特币第1层在实现分散融资中的局限性是众所周知的。比特币L1不支持智能合约，这意味着它无法促进贷款，自动化的做市商，分散交流或任何其他Fefi活动。比特币的基于UTXO的现金系统主要是为了付款而设计的，但是在更复杂的情况下，它在可扩展性和多功能性方面进行了斗争。

To address these issues, the Finality Bridge offers a solution by connecting Bitcoin to more programmable, trust-minimized environments, like Layer 2 solutions.

为了解决这些问题，最终桥通过将比特币连接到更可编程，信任最小的环境（例如第2层解决方案）来提供解决方案。

“Without the bridge, you can’t really do DeFi. Bitcoin L1 doesn’t have smart contract capabilities or programmability. You can only make payments. To enable Bitcoin DeFi—where Bitcoin holders want to earn yield, engage in on-chain options, liquid staking, and other creative DeFi use cases—you need to bridge to a programmable, trust-minimized environment like a Layer 2 solution,” Hu explains.

“没有桥梁，您就无法真正做过defi。比特币L1没有智能合同功能或可编程性。您只能付款。为了启用比特币Defi（比特币持有人想要赚取收益率，参与链上的选择，液体蒸发和其他创意的Defi用例），您需要桥接到可编程，信任最小的环境（如第二层解决方案），” Hu解释说。

Bitcoin L1’s scalability is constrained by its ability to process only seven transactions per second (TPS), which results in network congestion. This can lead to high fees and failed transactions as users compete to pay for limited block space.

比特币L1的可伸缩性受到仅处理每秒7次交易（TPS）的能力，从而导致网络拥塞。随着用户竞争以支付有限的块空间，这可能会导致高费用和失败的交易。

“Many users experienced this during the 2023 ordinals mint,” Hu recalls. “People paid for gas fees, but their transactions failed because they paid too little compared to others who were paying higher fees. This led to a situation where everyone was fighting to pay higher fees, but in the end, they burned their Bitcoin and the transactions still failed.”

“许多用户在2023年的典型造币厂中都经历了这一点，”胡回忆道。 “人们支付了汽油费，但是他们的交易失败了，因为与支付更高费用的其他人相比，他们支付的费用太少了。这导致了每个人都在努力支付更高费用的情况，但最终，他们烧毁了比特币，交易仍然失败了。”

The Finality Bridge solves these problems by enabling Bitcoin to interact with Layer 2 solutions, thereby allowing Bitcoin holders to participate in DeFi activities and scale their transactions without the limitations of Bitcoin L1.

最终桥梁通过使比特币与第2层解决方案进行交互来解决这些问题，从而允许比特币持有人参与DEFI活动并扩展其交易而无需比特币L1的局限性。

The Versatility and Future of the Finality Bridge

最终桥梁的多功能性和未来

One of the significant advantages of the BitVM Bridge is its ability to bridge Bitcoin assets to a wide range of ecosystems, including both EVM and non-EVM chains. Through its recent partnerships with chains such as Arbitrum, Plume, Base, Starknet, and Sonic, the BitVM Bridge is positioning itself to be an essential component in the future of cross-chain interoperability.

BITVM桥梁的重要优势之一是它可以将比特币资产桥接到各种生态系统（包括EVM和非EVM链）的能力。通过与仲裁，羽流，基础，斯塔克网和声波等连锁店的伙伴关系，BITVM桥将自己定位为跨链互操作性的未来的重要组成部分。

Sonic, for example, uses Solana VM, which opens the door for Solana ecosystem integration, despite its indirect connection to Bitcoin.

例如，Sonic使用Solana VM，尽管与比特币的间接连接，但它为Solana生态系统集成打开了大门。

“Our bridge is versatile, supporting both EVM and non-EVM chains, making it highly adaptable,” says Hu. “For example, Sonic (which uses Solana VM) connects us

Hu说：“我们的桥梁是通用的，支持EVM和非EVM链，使其具有高度适应性。” “例如，Sonic（使用Solana VM）连接我们
