A new wave of devs is rediscovering Bitcoin.
But what layer should you build on and why is it Botanix? 🧵
Botanix is a network for using native BTC with onchain apps.
No new tokens. No forks. No gimmicks.
It’s a great place to build for various reasons:
✅Reason 1: Lindy Stack
Bitcoin is the most Lindy monetary system.
EVM is the most Lindy smart contract environment.
Botanix fuses both.
✅Reason 2: Familiar Architecture
If you’ve built on Lightning, Botanix feels intuitive.
It uses multisigs (like Lightning) and works with Bitcoin Core.
If you’ve built on Ethereum, Botanix feels intuitive.
It’s EVM-compatible and supports Solidity frameworks.
✅Reason 3: Forward Security
Each Botanix block refreshes keys via randomized multisigs. If one is compromised, past blocks remain secure.
It’s a cryptographic principle called forward security—rare in crypto, critical for L2s.
✅Reason 4: Onboarding the World
By enabling EVM apps on Bitcoin, Botanix lowers barriers for devs and users alike. Builders can port dApps.
Users don’t need to change habits.
