Technological advantage stems from persistent and rigorous research. Founded by ex-Imperial College London PhDs, we are dedicated to contribute to cutting-edge researcharound Bitcoin, interoperability, security, and crypto-economics.
Since 2015, we've been dedicated contributors to advancing Bitcoin and blockchain technology.
BitVM is an offchain virtual machine that could completely change the landscape for Layer 2s on Bitcoin. We cover what BitVM is, and how it can impact Bitcoin rollups. Collaboration with Bitcoinrollups.io.
Stablecoins are one of the most widely capitalized digital assets. We provide a sound foundation for stablecoin theory, in collaboration with Cornell University and Imperial College London.
Since Bitcoin's inception, diverse blockchains have emerged. Cross-chain communication (CCC) is vital for exchanges, scalability, sidechains, and new blockchains. Explore our solutions in collaboration with Imperial College London, UCL, IOHK, EPFL, TU Vienna, University of Athens, and University of Edinburgh.
Contributions
Discover our ongoing efforts to revolutionize the intersection of Bitcoin and the broader blockchain ecosystem. From Interlay's modular, programmable layer opening decentralized financial horizons for BTC, to BOB's pioneering hybrid Layer-2 solution bridging Bitcoin's security with Ethereum's innovation, delve into the future of decentralized finance and mass adoption.
BOB is the Bank of Bitcoin – swap, save, earn and borrow, all on Bitcoin rails. Its hybrid chain settles on Ethereum for stablecoin and EVM access while drawing security from Bitcoin itself, with BitVM enabling native BTC onchain without wrappers or custodians. BOB Gateway extends that reach outwards, giving apps across multiple chains one-click native BTC deposits and swaps through a single integration.
Interlay is a modular, programmable layer between Bitcoin and the multi-chain ecosystem that unlocks decentralized (financial) use cases for BTC. Interlay's vision is to help Bitcoin achieve mass adoption by unlocking decentralized (financial) use cases for BTC and removing the need for centralized services.
