Native Unleashing Bitcoin’s Potential in the Interchain
At Native, we are focused on unlocking Bitcoin’s liquidity and building an application layer for Bitcoin by leveraging the modular, flexible architecture of the Interchain Stack. Our goal is to enable interoperability with IBC and to provide a secure, efficient, and scalable infrastructure to expand Bitcoin’s utility beyond its base layer. By providing a secure Bitcoin, utilizing the Zero Trust Architecture, we aim to make BTC a first-class citizen in the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) and interconnected blockchains.
Why We’re Building With the Interchain Stack
Our decision to build with the Interchain Stack stems from our belief that the future of web3 is multi chain. That requires secure,seamless multi chain interactions and composability. The Cosmos SDK offers unparalleled flexibility and modularity, allowing us to integrate Bitcoin’s robust security and liquidity into an interoperable framework. The Interchain’s commitment to trust-minimized communication between independent blockchains aligns perfectly with our mission to extend Bitcoin’s capabilities while preserving its decentralization and self custody ethos. Additionally, the Interchain Stack components, like IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) protocol and established developer community accelerate our path towards scalable, secure, and permissionless cross-chain interactions.
Introduction to Native
Native is a Zero Trust application platform for Bitcoin, which brings IBC and programmability directly to Bitcoin. We’re building on the Zero Trust Architecture by leveraging advanced 2PC-MPC cryptography — a non-collusive MPC network to access and control BTC, Runes, Ordinals, and anything on Bitcoin.
Our vision is to create a robust and secure environment that makes Bitcoin interoperable with other ecosystems, unlocking various use cases such as lending, liquid staking and yield generation etc. The current problem is that Bitcoin’s liquidity and utility are siloed, while most DeFi activity happens on separate chains like Ethereum or Bitcoin side chains. By integrating Bitcoin into the interchain, Native enables a more seamless, frictionless flow of assets, value, and information across networks, making Bitcoin a cornerstone for multi-chain finance.
BLISS: A Unified Bitcoin Infrastructure
One of Native’s standout features is our Bitcoin Liquidity and Interoperability Scaling Stack (BLISS), which uses a hybrid approach combining ZK-proofs and fraud proofs. BLISS enables developers to build secure, interoperable Bitcoin applications with fast finality, scalable liquidity management, and verifiable computation across chains. This allows Bitcoin’s liquidity to be effectively aggregated and deployed in the interchain, reducing fragmentation and providing users with deeper liquidity pools and faster, cheaper transactions.
Unlocking Bitcoin Liquidity Across the Interchain
Our mission is to unlock Bitcoin’s liquidity for the broader blockchain ecosystem and create a truly interconnected financial system where Bitcoin plays a central role. This unlocks new possibilities for DeFi protocols, dApps, and other ecosystems to tap into Bitcoin’s vast liquidity pool while benefiting from the Interchain’s modular and scalable architecture.
In addition, Native contributes to the interchain by expanding the use of IBC to Bitcoin and integrating BLISS as a framework for developers to create new cross-chain protocols and applications. We envision a future where Bitcoin liquidity fuels innovation and growth across the interchain, reducing silos and driving new opportunities for composable finance and cross-chain utility.
Native Mainnet Launch and Beyond
As we continue to build, our focus is on integrating additional security features like Zero Trust Architecture, scaling the BLISS stack to support more sophisticated Bitcoin DeFi use cases, and collaborating with other key projects in the interchain ecosystem. We are also actively working on our mainnet launch, which will bring the full capabilities of BLISS to life. After the BLISS go-to-market phase, Native plans to support Zero Trust Protocols, which provides seamless interactions with native Bitcoin assets without relying on centralized trust points, delivering a more secure and decentralized user experience. Through Zero Trust Protocols, Native aims to empower users with full control over their assets, minimizing vulnerabilities associated with trusted bridges and permissioned networks.
