How Bitfinity Works

Unlike traditional Ethereum Layer 2 solutions that rely on zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) or optimistic rollups, Bitfinity uses Chain-Key cryptography—a threshold signature scheme—to create a decentralized bridge between Bitcoin and Bitfinity.

Key Features:

Getting Started

Follow these steps to begin using Bitfinity:

  1. Connect Your Wallet – Link MetaMask to Bitfinity.
  2. Mint Testnet Tokens – Access the Bitfinity Testnet Faucet for BTF tokens.
  3. Bridge Bitcoin Assets – Transfer cross-chain Bitcoin assets to Bitfinity (BRC-20 support coming soon).
