Stacks’ sBTC product, Bitcoin’s layer-2 scaling solution, is now coming to the Aptos network! 🌐 According to the Aptos Foundation, Bitcoin will now be available for decentralized applications (dApps) built on the Aptos blockchain.
This integration will benefit both the Stacks and Aptos ecosystems. For Stacks, using sBTC on the L1 blockchain will allow developers to build dApps with the Move programming language.
Aptos users and developers will also benefit from Bitcoin’s security and global popularity. This move will allow Bitcoin to go beyond being a mere store of value and be used in complex smart contracts and decentralized applications.
Aptos continues to be committed to bringing blockchain projects into its ecosystem. Last month, Tether announced that it would be bringing its USDT stablecoin to the Aptos network. 🎉
