In a recent development, Bitlayer Labs secured funding from MN Capital, though the amount was not disclosed. This investment underscores the growing interest and confidence in Bitlayer's vision to enhance Bitcoin's scalability, efficiency, and security through its innovative Layer 2 solution built on BitVM.
