Bitlayer Labs has announced partnerships with three of Bitcoin's largest mining pools—AntPool, F2Pool, and SpiderPool—which together control 36.2% of Bitcoin's hashrate. This collaboration aims to accelerate the adoption and development of BitVM, a technology designed to enable Bitcoin-native decentralized finance (DeFi) applications by introducing Turing-complete smart contracts on the Bitcoin network. BitVM leverages Bitlayer's OP Stack-based rollup infrastructure to facilitate new use cases such as secure bridges and programmable digital assets. Additionally, Fiamma Labs' BitVM2 bridge has integrated with the Succinct Prover Network to enable secure and efficient zero-knowledge proof verification on Bitcoin, further enhancing the programmability and security of digital assets on the platform.
