Is Bitcoin's liquidity really confined by Layer1? That notion has long been outdated.
Now there's a completely different approach—using omnichain protocols to unlock the liquidity of BTC assets. Imagine directly bridging BRC-20 tokens, Runes, or Taproot Assets across more than 70 blockchains. The key is that no wrapping or third-party custody is needed. This is true native cross-chain.
Essentially, what it does is similar to the significance of LayerZero for the Ethereum ecosystem, but targeted at Bitcoin. Turning your digital gold from a single-chain island into a multi-chain liquid asset opens up entirely new possibilities for the Bitcoin ecosystem. Not only does it enhance trading flexibility and capital efficiency, but it also removes middlemen, making security even more robust.
This direction allows Bitcoin to genuinely participate in DeFi and cross-chain applications, rather than just lying dormant in cold wallets.

No wrapping, no custodial cross-chain, this idea is truly brilliant. BTC is finally coming back to life.
---
The significance of omnichain for BTC is even greater than LayerZero's impact on ETH. Digital gold needs to flow to unlock its value.
---
Exactly right, I love cutting out middlemen the most. Security is actually guaranteed, this is what we need.
---
Over 70 chains, BTC is no longer just a decoration in cold wallets. DeFi participation is about to take off.
---
Single-chain islands should have been broken long ago. Liquidity is the real hard currency.
---
Wow, native cross-chain directly targets pain points. The BTC ecosystem's potential has indeed been limited for too long.
---
Capital efficiency is the core here. Previous liquidity solutions were just patchwork.
---
This is the way Bitcoin should look. Stop lying in cold wallets; it's time to get to work.

The omnichain logic is now a closed loop, with no third-party risk. BTC cross-chain should be played like this.

Wait, can omnichain really solve the liquidity dilemma of BTC? Sounds great.
But to be honest, I find this logic a bit hard to grasp—can it truly achieve zero-wrap cross-chain? How are the risks calculated?
BTC should just stay in cold wallets, why bother messing around in DeFi to earn that tiny profit?

Hey, really, the omnichain concept, Bitcoin is finally going to make a comeback.

Well, the omnichain system is real, but the key is who can implement it first.
If BTC liquidity can truly be unleashed, DeFi will directly explode, but I'm still a bit worried about security...
Crossing over 70 chains sounds impressive, but how many of them are actually usable?
If that happens, cold wallet enthusiasts will be thrilled.
Native cross-chain solutions without middlemen are indeed more appealing; it all depends on who can make this work reliably.

Damn, finally someone explained this thoroughly! Sticking to just the single chain with BTC is such a waste.
