BounceBit is building a BTC restaking infrastructure that provides a foundational layer for different restaking products, secured by the regulated custody of Mainnet Digital and Ceffu. The BounceBit chain, designed as a showcase of a restaking product within the BounceBit ecosystem, is a PoS Layer 1 secured by validators staking both BTC and BounceBit’s native token – A dual-token system leveraging native Bitcoin’s security with full EVM compatibility. Critical ecosystem infrastructure like bridges and oracles are secured by restaked BTC. Through an innovative CeFi + DeFi framework, BounceBit empowers BTC holders to earn yield across multiple networks.

Nubit is building Bitcoin Thunderbolt, the Bitcoin Boosting Network for native assets, trading, and verification. By enhancing Bitcoin’s core efficiency, Bitcoin Thunderbolt is set to improve Bitcoin’s transaction speed, asset interoperability, and decentralized identity. The project was founded by UCSB professor Yu Feng, with a team of Bitcoin-native developers, academics, and researchers. Inspired by the scalability issues of Bitcoin 10 years ago, Nubit focuses on boosting Bitcoin’s efficiency while maintaining its security and decentralization.

Yala has developed a modular approach allowing for the deployment of cross-chain modules on various environments, including EVM-compatible chains like Ethereum and non-EVM chains like Solana, enhancing Bitcoin composability and driving the development of a robust interconnected Bitcoin DeFi ecosystem. By deploying programmable cross-chain modules and facilitating access to EVM environments, Yala unlocks a thriving and interconnected DeFi ecosystem on Bitcoin​.

At Babylon, we envision a future where Bitcoin and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) chains thrive together. Our mission is to build a Bitcoin-driven decentralized world by evolving Bitcoin into a trusted security backbone for PoS chains, delivering yields for bitcoin holders while fostering an integrated, secure, and decentralized economy. We trace our genesis to a transformative research paper on Bitcoin security, an original work co-authored by our co-founders, David Tse and Fisher Yu, the founder of EigenLayer, Sreeram Kannan and co-authors. Their combined intellect and foresight have set the cornerstone of Babylon. In a testament to our dedication to advancing the field, our research paper has been accepted by the highly-respected 2023 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy - a significant global platform for security discourse. The project is led by a team of consensus protocol researchers from Stanford and experienced layer 1 engineers from around the world. Babylon’s mission is to scale Bitcoin to secure the decentralized world. To achieve this, Babylon utilizes the three primary facets of Bitcoin: Bitcoin as an asset, its reliable timestamping service, its most censorship-resistant blockspace in the world. To leverage these facets, Babylon is developing three innovative security-sharing protocols: Bitcoin Staking Protocol, Bitcoin Timestamping Protocol, and Bitcoin Data Availability Protocol. Through these pioneering protocols, Babylon envisions a more secure and decentralized future.

Polyhedras vision is to unlock exponential improvements to computational power and cross-platform interoperability through the use of zero-knowledge (ZK). While zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP) are most commonly known for their privacy characteristics, the ability of ZKPs to compress large datasets into small proofs has huge potential to revolutionize computing while driving massive performance improvements in computationally intensive applications like AI and machine learning.
