Crypto startup Hamilton has introduced tokenized United States Treasury bonds on Bitcoin layer-2 blockchains, marking a groundbreaking move in the industry. Known as Hamilton U.S. T-Bills (HUST), these bonds are now accessible on various Bitcoin layer-2 solutions like Stacks, Core, and BoB (Build on Bitcoin). By leveraging Bitcoin layer-2 decentralized finance ecosystems, Hamilton aims to combine the stability of the Bitcoin network with the reliability of the U.S. dollar. This initiative not only enhances the network's scalability and functionality but also opens up opportunities for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) to participate in the Web3 economy. With a total value locked of $8 billion, RWAs like T-Bills, real estate, and securities are gaining traction. The development of Bitcoin layer-2 solutions, such as the Lightning Network, is crucial in addressing the network's increased traffic and high fees, paving the way for smart-contract dependent decentralized finance (BTCfi) on the Bitcoin network.
