Decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure network LeverFi (LEVER) unveiled the OmniZK Protocol, a secure validation protocol designed to expand scalability, logic construction, and interoperability for Bitcoin (BTC).
The OmniZK protocol adopts a modular design, providing developers with the flexibility to create conditional, non-custodial Discreet Log Contracts (DLCs) on the Bitcoin network that are secured by event proofs generated by zkOracles, enhancing security and reliability.
OmniZK supports a wide range of interchain Bitcoin applications, spanning various use cases such as omnichain liquidity management, decentralized asset bridges, cross-chain Bitcoin DeFi markets, and non-custodial BTC liquid staking.
Furthermore, applications built using OmniZK can operate independently from, yet harmoniously with, Bitcoin Layer 2 solutions as they engage and exchange information with Layer 2 networks, but final settlements occur external to these networks.
LeverFi To Bolster BTC and BRC-20 Ecosystem, Unveils Ambitious Roadmap for 2024
LeverFi operates as a DeFi infrastructure and innovation network that provides unique solutions within the DeFi sector. LeverFi currently oversees OmniZK, a launchpad for BRC-20 projects known as LeverPro, and the LeverTrade trading platform.
In outlining its roadmap for 2024, LeverFi is focused on developing the BTC and BRC-20 ecosystem. This includes the launch of the BRC-20 LVR token for trading and the introduction of a Layer 2 protocol powered by zero-knowledge technology, designed for token launches and on-chain DeFi activities. These initiatives are among several upgrades and releases planned for the year ahead.
Last year, Web3 investment firm DWF Labs invested $2 million in the platform, subject to a lock-in and release period spanning two years. Additionally, LeverFi has secured an additional $2 million in over-the-counter (OTC) commitments.
Recently, LeverFi has partnered with Elfin Games, a project incubated by Binance. This collaboration aims to introduce GameFi experiences and token utilities within the BTC and BRC-20 ecosystem. LeverFi users will have the opportunity to utilize LEVER tokens for acquiring land within the Elfin Metaverse, offering enhanced engagement and utility options within the gaming space.
