Lit v0.1, the Datil Mainnet Beta, is now live!
Using Lit, builders can generate keys and run private and immutable code for virtually any use case. Read on to get a glimpse into the future of Key Management 👇
Key takeaways from Brussels thus far:
- the big topics so far are chain abstraction, pre-confs, intents
- the eigenlayer hype compared to ETHDenver has diminished
- ppl are keeping it real and sentiment is somewhat neutral/slightly pessimistic even
- same builders, still here

3/7 Unlike other solutions relying on Ethereum's ERC-4337, VaultLayer creates a Bitcoin-native smart account using
@LitProtocol
's MPC network. This off-chain approach simplifies the permission layer for a truly BTC-centric solution 🔐⚡
general UX comment for new lowercase 'b'
#btc
chains
btc as the gas token makes a world of difference. bridging btc over and then having to figure out how to get the native gas token is a UX nightmare
2/7 The CAKE (Chain-Abstraction Key Elements) framework includes three key layers: Permission, Solver, and Settlement.
These layers work together to simplify cross-chain interactions. 🧩
7/7 With the CAKE framework as its foundation, VaultLayer is poised to transform the Bitcoin DeFi landscape by offering a unified, user-friendly experience that removes all friction points. Exciting times ahead! 🌟

#ChainAbstraction
Core has built the first ever live non-custodial Bitcoin staking protocol and turned Bitcoin into a productive yield-bearing asset for the first time.
The yield was carefully planned and comes from an 81-year emission plan, and therefore, is sustainable🔶
4/7 The Solver Layer optimizes transaction execution by finding the best routes, managing fees, and ensuring speed and reliability. This involves asynchronous transactions and solving for optimal paths. 🧭⚙️
🌟 Exciting News from Bitcoin Startup Lab

This is the fist release in VaultLayer's roadmap to help users grow their BTC and rewards easier, without losing custody👇:
- vaultlayer-sdk: A toolkit for developers to offer better Bitcoin DeFi UX to users👩💻.
- Smart Vault App: BTC Staking with One Account, One Portfolio, Any
@btcstartuplab
A couple of ideas after the hackathon:
- Sponsor content creation of developer resources
- Curating a periodic newsletter/report on the sate of building on bitcoin
- Continuing the X spaces, adding other channels like yt/video with more education about building on bitcoin
Today, User eXperience (UX) and liquidity are fragmented across Bitcoin DeFi💔:
- More than 100+ L2s to choose from⛓️
- Users need to manage at least 2 wallets: Bitcoin and Ethereum🔑🔑
- Too many steps to stake BTC in L1 and claim rewards in L2s.

@babylonlabs_io
@Coredao_Org
Thanks! aggregation and abstraction is what we try to do best 😇
Interesting, that staking vs re-staking conversation sounds like a good topic to tackle on an X space, we could host one if you're keen, would love to have you as guest sometime, cheers!
8/9 The debacle of the likes of Voyager, Celsius or FTX should be enough warning and a big lesson learned on the importance of assets Self-Custody and preferring Decentralized Finance (DeFi) alternatives to mitigate all possible risks.
6/9 Wrong. The whole idea of crypto is to remove single points of failure and remain in control of the custody of your assets: “Not your keys, not your coins”. 🔐
Excited to announce that we are partnering with
@VaultLayer

Their 1-click Bitcoin DeFi chain-abstraction solution will be a great addition to the StratoVM ecosystem, making it easier than ever to access and profit from BTC.
