- Babylon Labs is developing a Bitcoin bridge with the Cosmos network.
- The bridge uses BitVM2 to enable Ethereum-style smart contracts on Bitcoin.
- Zero-knowledge technology is foundational for bridging digital assets across blockchains.
- Babylon’s Bitcoin staking protocol has a total value locked of approximately $5.5 billion.
- The BitVM-based bridge was deployed to the Bitcoin testnet by Citrea in September.
Babylon Labs, in collaboration with Fiamma, is advancing Bitcoin’s interoperability by building a bridge using BitVM2, which supports Ethereum-style smart contracts. This initiative aims to unlock the $5.5 billion value stored in Babylon’s BTC staking protocol for broader ecosystem use.
