Sui Network Gets Bitcoin-Powered Boost as Bitlayer Deploys BitVM Bridge for YBTC
Sui Network Gets Bitcoin-Powered Boost as Bitlayer Deploys BitVM Bridge for YBTC

Bitlayer just cracked open a new frontier for Bitcoin maximalists—bringing wrapped BTC to Sui’s blazing-fast ecosystem via their BitVM bridge. YBTC (yet another Bitcoin-backed token?) now gets to play in Sui’s high-performance sandbox.
Why it matters: This isn’t your grandma’s token bridge. Bitlayer’s BitVM tech theoretically allows for trust-minimized Bitcoin transfers without relying on federated custodian models—assuming the cryptography holds and no one gets ’hacked’ (again).
The finance angle: Because what crypto really needed was more synthetic Bitcoin derivatives trading at 50x leverage. At least this one’s backed by actual BTC... probably.
