Stacknova, the first AI-powered Bitcoin launchpad, has raised $600,000 to enhance Bitcoin's decentralized finance (DeFi) capabilities. By integrating artificial intelligence with the Stacks Layer 2 protocol, Stacknova aims to address key challenges in the DeFi space, including scalability, liquidity, and usability. The project promises smarter AI agents for investing and improved security on the Bitcoin network. Additionally, Stacknova is set to launch its Stage 2 presale, offering tokens at $0.045, which is 70% below the anticipated launch price, and up to 111.5% annual percentage yield (APY) with staking. This development comes on the heels of a recent 500% network capacity upgrade for the Stacks protocol, which enhances Bitcoin's security and performance, paving the way for increased application usage in the DeFi ecosystem.
