2024.05.13 16:30 cryptovechkin Breaking the Chains of Obscurity and Unleashing Pepe's Pet: $Nitefeeder [1M Market Cap][70 Days Old]
https://preview.redd.it/t7oeosco810d1.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4909b1057159edb30f8503ea0d312e7e53a50a7e submitted by cryptovechkin to memecoins [link] [comments] By now you've likely heard of Kendu, but did you know that the #3 holder of Kendu also happens to be the #1 holder of Nitefeeder? How did they have the foresight to invest in Kendu on launch at $100k market cap and in Nitefeeder from day one? Take a moment to let that sink in. Some of you may recall my username from when I first shilled DFNDR ($500k to $38m), PalmAI ($450k to $160m for a 355x), or even REDO (from $300k to $100m+ for a 300x+) in select alpha Telegram channels. I don't endorse just about anything unless I have unwavering conviction (and a touch of alpha, of course) and there's a deliberate reason why I waited until this exact moment to discuss Nitefeeder. Now that I have your attention, stay awhile and listen. What makes a meme coin successful? Is it the strength of its community, its compelling narrative, or perhaps the innovative features and use cases it offers? Could it be the result of savvy marketing and hype, long-term viability or is success simply a matter of luck and timing? I bet you've heard it countless times: "Buy X meme coin because the community is strong, the narrative is compelling, the marketing is insane!" But how often are these claims backed up with solid facts, numbers, and evidence? In a crowded marketplace with tens of thousands of coins boasting similar "traits," what truly distinguishes your meme coin? Let's take a deep dive to uncover the real value beneath the hype. NarrativeWhat is Nitefeeder? Well, simply put, Nitefeeder is Pepe's one and only pet which can be found on page 27 of Matt Furie's Boys Club Comic. Now, how well do "pet" meme coins do compared to their predecessors? Let's compare a few examples:
CommunityWhat makes a strong community?Is it the fact that over $100k in Nitefeeder and ETH was donated to the multisig community marketing wallet? What about the dedication of a community member who flew across continents to engage in face-to-face discussions about Nitefeeder with none other than Matt Furie himself? Or is it simply the unpaid devs who contributed their time to craft stunning websites, and artists who passionately created brand-new logos? And let's not forget the creativity and passion of a volunteer who took it upon themselves to craft their own rendition of the Nitefeeder comic that they will continue to release regularly. I have been in the crypto space for almost 10 years and I definitely could never have imagined myself creating a Reddit account, laying out my research, and advocating for a meme coin. Yet, here I am, realizing the strong connections I've formed with Nitefeeder community members I've never even met. It's a true testament to the power of community and the unexpected journeys it can lead us on. Long-Term ViabilityAs we all know, meme coins often rise and fall to the fluctuating strength of their narratives. But what's the secret ingredient that keeps the hype alive? Who will step up to fund the ongoing marketing efforts of a meme coin with a 0/0 tax structure? The 30+ whales who have generously contributed to the marketing wallet can't sustain it forever—or perhaps one of them can, but let's save that discussion for another day (IYKYK).Our community developers are hard at work creating three exciting mini-games featuring Nitefeeder, promising endless entertainment and a long-term revenue stream. And that's just scratching the surface—our main P2P game is already in the works. Now, the decision is yours. Do you seize the chance to join a meme coin while the market is calm, or do you wait until FOMO kicks in, realizing you missed out on a golden opportunity? LuckWhen a coin pumps like crazy in a short period of time, it's often attributed to sheer luck and perfect timing. However, luck isn't our focus; we're forging our own luck. Pepe's legacy continues, Boys Club endures, and Nitefeeder sure as hell isn't going to stop either.Join us on Telegram, or better yet, join the exclusive whale group where untapped alpha awaits, far beyond the confines of this post. https://www.dextools.io/app/en/ethepair-explore0x1ce1f63b584b87d0f3706bfbb2be881270859f0b?t=1715306287962 CA: 0x85f7cfe910393fb5593c65230622aa597e4223f1 |

2024.05.11 00:07 Small-Phone-6154 ONVIF NVR: Only 2 profiles available / some profiles missing
Hi all, hoping someone can help... submitted by Small-Phone-6154 to Scrypted [link] [comments] I have four PoE cameras connected to the following NVR, with the cameras connected directly to / behind the NVR (i.e. the cameras are on a local network / subnet with IP addresses issued by the NVR). The cameras and NVR are branded 'FVS', but I believe FVS is an 'own-brand' and the underlying manufacturer is probably one of the common Chinese brands. Cameras: FV-PRO 9584S3B-2.8 - NEW 4K 8MP Enhanced IP Mini Eyeball with IR LED & Built-in Audio (fvs-cctv.com) NVR: FV-PRO DVR2104-4K - 8MP 4K Lite Hybrid 4 Channel P2P Pentaplex DVR (fvs-cctv.com) Details of the NVR web client and Windows plug-in are appended below in case relevant. Because I don't know the underlying manufacturer, I've used the ONVIF plugin and then followed the guidance in the ONVIF plug-in readme file: ONVIF NVRs are not directly supported yet. To access cameras behind an NVR, add the NVR once per camera, and select the correct camera channel.This has worked perfectly... except only two of the four cameras / channels are available. I see the following profiles available in Scrypted:
Has anyone encountered a similar problem and found a solution? I have checked settings on the NVR web client and all the cameras / channels are configured the same... so I am wondering if this is an issue with the NVR only 'pushing' 2 cameras to Scrypted or Scrypted only 'pulling' 2 cameras from the NVR. Alternatively, if anyone knows who the underlying manufacturer may be, I could try using the applicable manufacturer plug-in rather than ONVIF... which might fix this issue? Grateful for any help! Appendix The NVR runs some unbranded web client which looks like this: https://preview.redd.it/s8bp8ovf9ozc1.png?width=1536&format=png&auto=webp&s=8b80d5f57c3e54946e7a56859afd38b93575fafb I had to install a Windows plug-in as follows: https://preview.redd.it/ronu96gw8ozc1.png?width=806&format=png&auto=webp&s=610b81f77333a255489e15e079414cd08ada67f8 |

Additionally, we offer a guide outlining the step-by-step process to establish a successful remittance or money transfer business. submitted by KristineJakovleva to u/KristineJakovleva [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/gb1c4e7nhlzc1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=596523a333c301fc33c83dd4929c643778238c3b What is money remittance?Money remittance involves sending money from one location to another, typically across borders, to meet financial needs or fulfil payment obligations. This financial service is vital for individuals who must send funds to family members, friends, or others in different regions or countries. Money remittance can occur through various channels, such as banks, dedicated remittance providers, online platforms, or mobile applications.The sender initiates the transfer by providing necessary details about the recipient and selecting the preferred transfer method. The recipient can access the transferred funds through local financial institutions or designated payout locations. Money remittance is crucial in supporting global financial connectivity and addressing the diverse financial requirements of individuals and businesses worldwide. These services contribute to financial inclusion by providing accessible and efficient channels for individuals to send and receive money globally, overcoming geographical barriers and enhancing overall economic well-being. What is a money transfer?A money transfer refers to moving funds from one individual or entity to another. This financial transaction can occur through various channels, including banks, online platforms, money transfer services, or traditional methods. Money transfers are commonly utilised for diverse purposes, such as sending funds to family members, making payments, conducting business transactions, or meeting financial needs across borders.The process typically begins with a sender initiating the transfer, specifying the recipient, and selecting a preferred transfer method, such as wire transfers, online transfers, mobile payments, or remittance services. The term ‘money transfer’ also encompasses credit/debit card transfers, where funds move from one card to another credit/debit card, a bank account, or a merchant. How remittance worksRemittance is a financial process that enables the transfer of money from one location to another. The sender initiates the transaction through a remittance service provider, a traditional brick-and-mortar agency, an online platform, or a mobile application. The sender provides necessary details, such as the recipient’s name, location, and transfer amount.The remittance service processes the transaction, converting funds into the desired currency if necessary and transfers the money to the recipient. The recipient can then collect the funds through various channels, including cash pickup points, bank accounts, mobile wallets, or even opt for home delivery, depending on the chosen service and the options provided by the remittance provider. The entire process is facilitated by a network of financial institutions and payment service providers to ensure a secure and efficient transfer of funds across borders. Forms of money transfersWhat are the types of money transfers?1. Bank Transfer:Easily facilitated through online banking or apps, bank transfers are common. In the UK, Bacs, CHAPS, or Faster Payments, and in the EEA, SEPA payments support both one-off and regular transfers.2. Wire Transfer:Ideal for international transfers, wire transfers move money between two unlinked bank accounts, with the bank serving as an intermediary.3. In-Person Transfer:Specialised money transfer services like Western Union facilitate in-person transactions. This method accommodates recipients without bank accounts, allowing them to collect funds in cash at a nearby agent location.How can money remittance be executed?Money remittance can be executed through various methods, providing consumers with diverse options to suit their preferences:1. Through a Bank or Financial Institution:Funds can be transferred from the sender’s bank account to another using online banking, digital services, a banking app, or visiting a branch. Essential details include the recipient’s account name, sort code, and account number. Customers may need the recipient’s IBAN or SWIFT/BIC code for international transfers.2. Through a Specialised Money Transfer Company:Companies like Western Union offer multiple methods for transferring money within many countries. Customers can choose between online transfers or visiting an agent’s location for an in-person transaction. Depending on the transfer type, customers will need the recipient’s details and possibly a government-issued ID for verification, ensuring a swift and secure delivery.3. Through a Payment App:Remittance can be provided through a payment app for convenient on-the-go transfers. Customers can seamlessly send money directly to a loved one’s bank account using their debit or credit card. Alternatively, funds can be transferred for pickup at a local or international location.4. To the Receiver’s Phone:Money can be sent directly to their phone to provide the recipient with immediate access to funds. Depending on their location and mobile operator, funds can be directed to the recipient’s mobile wallet, allowing for instant spending.Types of money transfer or remittance businessesMoney transfer or remittance businesses encompass various types, each tailored to meet individuals’ and businesses’ specific needs and preferences. These include:1. Traditional Brick-and-Mortar Services:Operating through physical locations such as banks or dedicated remittance centres, these services allow customers to send money in person.2. Online Money Transfer Platforms:These platforms have gained popularity, enabling users to initiate transactions through web-based interfaces or mobile applications, providing convenience and accessibility.3. Mobile Money Services:Leveraging mobile phone networks, these services facilitate transfers, particularly in regions with limited access to traditional banking.4. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Payment Platforms:Individuals can send funds directly to each other using digital wallets or bank accounts through these platforms.5. Cryptocurrency-Based Remittance Services:Utilising blockchain technology for secure and decentralised transactions, these services offer an alternative to traditional methods.The diverse landscape of money transfer businesses reflects the financial services sector’s evolving preferences and technological advancements. Traditional brick-and-mortar remittance servicesTraditional brick-and-mortar remittance services have served as the cornerstone of cross-border financial transactions for an extended period. These physical establishments, commonly situated in local communities, serve as a familiar and accessible channel for individuals to send and receive money. Customers typically visit these locations to initiate transactions, relying on face-to-face interactions with service agents. Renowned for their reliability and trustworthiness, these establishments offer a comforting in-person experience, especially for those less familiar with digital transactions. Although lacking the convenience of online platforms, brick-and-mortar remittance services remain indispensable in catering to populations with limited access to technology or those who prefer the tangible and personal nature of in-person transactions.Online money remittance businessesOnline money remittance businesses have revolutionised the financial landscape, offering individuals a convenient and efficient way to send money globally. These digital platforms utilise web-based interfaces or mobile applications, enabling users to initiate transactions from the comfort of their homes or on the go. With secure and streamlined processes, online remittance services provide speed and accessibility, diminishing the reliance on traditional brick-and-mortar methods. Users can fund transfers using various payment options, including bank accounts, credit cards, or digital wallets. Furthermore, real-time tracking features empower senders and recipients to monitor the status of their transactions. The growth of online money remittance businesses underscores the industry’s commitment to leveraging technology for enhanced financial inclusion and seamless cross-border transactions.The international money transfer industry overviewThe international money transfer industry is pivotal in facilitating global financial transactions and fostering connections among individuals, businesses, and economies across borders. Technological advancements have significantly reduced traditional barriers, enabling faster, more accessible, cost-effective remittance services.As of 2020, the global remittance market was valued at $701.93 billion, and it is expected to reach $1,227.22 billion by 2030, projecting a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.7% from 2021 to 2030. Major players in the remittance market include Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase & Co., MoneyGram International, RIA Financial Services, Wise, UAE Exchange, Wells Fargo, Western Union, and XOOM.

Your USP distinguishes your service from others, and understanding the specific demographic you aim to serve will shape your business strategy.2. Prepare All Required Documents and obtain Special Registration or LicensePrepare all necessary legal and regulatory compliance documents, including business registration documents, identification proofs, financial statements, and any other paperwork required by regulatory authorities in the countries where you intend to operate.Navigate the regulatory landscape by obtaining the necessary registrations or licenses to operate your remittance business. Compliance with local and international regulations is crucial to establishing the legitimacy and credibility of your operation. 3. Prepare All Processes, Including Compliance:Develop a robust framework that includes stringent anti-money laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures in alignment with regulatory guidelines. Establishing a solid foundation in compliance is essential for ensuring the security of transactions and building trust among users. Consider leveraging compliance-as-a-service, which provides remote and outsourced compliance services by professionals according to regulatory requirements.4.

Select reputable banking or financial services partners that align with your business goals.

Set Your IT System or Core Banking Software:Invest in a secure, efficient IT system or core banking software like Macrobank. This system will be the backbone of your remittance operations, covering transaction processing, customer management, and data security. Additionally, consider implementing white-label mobile banking or web banking applications to deliver an exceptional experience to your customers.6. Make Partnerships with Financial Institutions:Forge strategic partnerships with financial institutions to expand your remittance network. Collaborate with banks, credit unions, remittance providers, or other financial entities to facilitate smoother transactions and extend the reach of your services.7.

However, while they are all waiting to "let the bullets fly", I am more bullish @NervosNetwork . Why? Next, let me talk about my opinion: In my opinion, there are currently two major problems in the BTC derivative ecosystem market:
The current BTC ecosystem must deliver results in solving the liquidity problem of layer 1 derivative assets. Therefore, the Bitcoin derivatives market urgently needs to develop a closed-loop layer 2 solution that can be quickly formed in terms of technical architecture, market operations, and ecological implementation. The implementation of native RGB protocol and Lightning Network is too slow, and many EVM-Compatible protocol frameworks are still under construction. In comparison, only CKB public chain, as a paradigm of UTXO isomorphic binding chain, is gradually "accelerating" the implementation of the market's imagination of BTC layer2: RGB++, UTXO Stack, Lightning Network, DOB assets, full-chain games and other landing ecosystems are emerging one by one. In the short term, the CKB public chain can provide a quick “training exercise” for the BTC layer2 industry, allowing everyone to see that BTC derivative assets on the first layer can be expanded and circulated in the Turing-complete environment of the second layer; in the long term, CKB may be able to rely on its inherent technical advantages of “isomorphic binding” to establish a UTXO-structured layer2 mainstream unified market for the BTC layer2 market. The fundamental reason why CKB public chain can do this is that the UTXO Cell model of the CKB chain itself can include tokens, JavaScript codes, JSON strings, smart contracts and a complete Bitcoin UTXO state. Therefore, the CKB public chain can be regarded as a complete off-chain state machine of the BTC mainnet. It can synchronously store all states that occur on the BTC mainnet, which is equivalent to an extended DA layer of the BTC mainnet. It runs all calculations based on its Turing completeness, which is equivalent to a high-performance VM execution layer. The isomorphic binding characteristics of its UTXO structure provide secure interoperability for BTC. In simple terms, if we assume that the BTC mainnet can only do asset settlement, CKB has taken care of the extended functionality such as the DA layer, execution layer, and interoperability. It is precisely because of this foundation that CKB has achieved some things that are difficult to implement on the BTC original chain, such as RGB and Lightning Network. Taking RGB as an example, its complete implementation requires some off-chain clients to store part of the "state" respectively, and then send a Commitment commitment (a Hash calculated by hashing the original state data) to the main network through a one-time sealing technology. The commitment contains the spending conditions of UTXO, cannot be tampered with, and can only be triggered by another matching commitment to "unlock". If Alice wants to send BTC assets to Bob through the RGB protocol, Alice initiates a commitment agreement that Bob can unlock the UTXO for spending. After receiving the commitment, the BTC full node will wait for another corresponding commitment to be unlocked. When the two commitments match, a UTXO spending (settlement) of the main chain is realized. Therefore, for the RGB client verification system, the key lies in the fact that independent P2P individuals such as Alice and Bob must each maintain a "state copy" and prove to the main network online that they legally own a certain state. The asset division is completed by matching the old commitments and updating the status of the new commitments. The problem is that in order for these individuals to have this kind of collaboration ability, a very complete "infrastructure" is usually required. The crux of the RGB protocol network's inability to be implemented on a large scale at this stage is that it is too difficult to build this infrastructure to uniformly manage the status, requests, and communications of off-chain clients. The CKB public chain itself has the ability to store DA states and has the interoperability of isomorphic binding. If this difficult infrastructure project is replaced by the existing CKB chain, wouldn’t the problem of RGB client verification be solved? That’s right, this is the fundamental reason why RGB++ came into being. Following this line of thought, the payment network of the state channel model, the Lightning Network, can also be implemented on the CKB public chain. After all, the crux of the Lightning Network is also the problem of interactive state management between the decentralized Lightning Network nodes. Imagine that if the originally decentralized and complex off-chain operation "black box" can be efficiently implemented on an existing public chain, the landing and application process will naturally be faster. For example, state channel cycle management, UTXO account and settlement, on-chain state storage, P2P communication simplification, etc. Taking the issuance of Inscription assets as an example, the inscription assets originally issued on the BTC L1 mainnet fell into an extremely high-cost turnover and low circulation state after the MINT under the Fomo trend. How can these assets be efficiently circulated with the help of the CKB public chain?
How to do it? Because CKB's Cell state has global management capabilities, if there is a conflict in the state of different Cells, such as two usage commitments with conflicting states, CKB will reject the issuance of one of the Cell commitments to protect the security of asset state updates. In essence, this is a reflection of the strong programmability of the CKB public chain. It should be noted that Ethereum's layer 2 solution Plasma cannot achieve similar Turing-complete expansion. Therefore, if I want to accelerate the implementation of BTC layer2, I will vote for the camp representing UTXO isomorphic binding. Although the CKB public chain is a successful UTXO paradigm BTC layer2, how can it represent the mainstream camp alone? Therefore, CKB launched the UTXO Stack to expand the scale of its camp. This situation is like when Vitalik said that ZK-Rollup is the final outcome and everyone rushed to the ZK field to build layer2. If Satoshi Nakamoto jumped out and said that UTXO isomorphic binding is the orthodoxy of BTC Layer2, it is estimated that UTXO Stack will also become the basic framework for the rapid construction and deployment of layer2 in the ecosystem. The implementation of the UTXO Stack strategy is very much like a strategic upgrade of OP Stack to OP-Rollup, which will soon bring the layer2 paradigm of the UTXO structure into more mainstream vision. Above In short, the recent coldness of the secondary market will bring some pressure to the builders of the primary market. Previously, the chaos of the BTC layer2 market was also regarded as prosperity, but after calming down, the lack of standards, norms, mainstream narratives, and core problem solutions (liquidity) of BTC layer2 will become a difficult problem that must be overcome. Therefore, the downturn of Runes has undoubtedly given the UTXO isomorphic binding camp represented by the CKB public chain a "send east wind" moment. Note: This article is purely from the perspective of technical logic, and is a call for the UTXO isomorphism binding to BTC layer2 represented by the CKB public chain. It is not intended as a reference for secondary market investment advice.

2024.04.29 18:54 -nervos- A Guide to Bitcoin L2's
This year CKB has been on fire as innovators find ways to use CKB as a Bitcoin Layer 2! submitted by -nervos- to NervosNetwork [link] [comments] Check out the first instalment of "The Ultimate Guide to Bitcoin Layer 2's", examining Liquid BTC, Rootstock and Stacks & the original RGB, read below to understand more. https://www.nervos.org/knowledge-base/ultimate_guide_bitcoin_layer_two_part_1 https://preview.redd.it/9ldzglz47gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=a6d125963420cb60cc5adfda44c6d8a53aa88096 The Ultimate Guide to Bitcoin Layer 2s: From Liquid, Rootstock, and Stacks to RGB (Part 1) With the rise of Ordinal Theory and inscriptions having finally shattered the image of a conservative chain reserved only for payments, Bitcoin is now undergoing an unprecedented renaissance. The arrival of ordinals and inscriptions on Bitcoin not only triggered a new wave of experimentation with Bitcoin-native digital artifacts, it also sparked the crypto community’s interest in the potential of Layer 2 protocols built on top of it. While the Lightning Network has been experiencing growth since its inception, more recently, protocols like Stacks and Rootstock have gained significant traction, both in the value of their respective tokens and in the on-chain usage and mindshare occupied within the Bitcoin community. Moreover, many innovative Layer 2 solutions are currently being ideated and developed, including drivechains, spiderchains, RGB, zk-rollups, BitVM, ARK, and RGB++ built on Nervos CKB. This comprehensive guide to Bitcoin Layer 2s consists of two parts. Part 1 covers the three oldest and most popular Bitcoin Layer 2s (excluding the Lightning Network, which you learn more about in this article) in depth and introduces the reader to the still-in-development RGB protocol. The analysis of the first three protocols should give the reader a good general sense of the most common Bitcoin Layer 2 architectures. Before we dive into the architectures of the specific solutions, it’s first important to define Layer 2 networks within the context of Bitcoin. What are Bitcoin Layer 2s?The classification of Layer 1 and Layer 2 systems is a legitimate subject of controversy within the crypto community, with different projects and factions of the industry having differing views.Generally speaking, Layer 1 chains are sovereign blockchains with their own consensus mechanisms and security budgets, that can function independently without relying on any other chain for consensus, data availability, or execution. On the other hand, there is no firm consensus on the definition of Layer 2 protocols, as various pundits draw the line at different points. https://preview.redd.it/5ok22yj87gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=3104f9207d3412916ad78869b693181fdbcae932 For example, the Ethereum Foundation defines a Layer 2 as a "separate blockchain that extends Ethereum and inherits the security guarantees of Ethereum." This means that any chain or protocol that doesn't inherit another chain's security can't be classified as Layer 2 in the eyes of the Ethereum Foundation. Under this strict definition, widely accepted within the Ethereum community, only rollups are considered Layer 2s. Payment channels, state channels and sidechains are left out of the paradigm. Sidechains are sovereign blockchains linked to a Layer 1 blockchain via a two-way bridge) or “peg,” enabling seamless cross-chain asset transfers. This makes distinguishing between Layer 1 chains and sidechains difficult, especially considering their technical similarities. For this reason, sidechain projects largely differentiate themselves from Layer 1s in their branding and ecosystem development direction. Namely, sidechains typically aim to extend or scale an existing Layer 1 ecosystem instead of developing their own from scratch. On the Bitcoin side of things, the "Layer 2" category is quite malleable. Namely, the Lightning Network, Liquid, Rootstock, and Stacks all brand themselves as Bitcoin Layer 2s, even though they have vastly different architectures and security assumptions. According to the Ethereum community’s accepted definition, only the Lightning Network (and arguably Stacks post the Nakamoto upgrade) meet the "Layer 2" criteria. One conceivable explanation for this disparity in viewpoints can be found in the Ethereum community’s conviction that a user must be able to withdraw Layer 2 assets solely through a Layer 1 transaction. In their view, if the users can't do this, and must rely on the honest or effective operation of third parties, the adjacent chain or protocol isn't a "Layer 2." However, this reasoning doesn't translate well in Bitcoin, where new assets are being defined and issued exclusively on Layer 2, with BTC being the primary (or only) Layer 1 asset considered. When it comes to withdrawing BTC from a Layer 2, only the Lightning Network fits this bill because Bitcoin lacks the ability to verify the complex conditions of these “Bitcoin Layer 2” systems. This means that a third party, typically a federation, has to manage the bridge and sign off on the transactions that move BTC from Layer 2 to Layer 1. Why Does Bitcoin Need Layer 2s?For what it's worth, Bitcoin doesn't necessarily need Layer 2 protocols to survive. However, Layer 2s benefit it greatly by scaling Bitcoin’s limited transaction throughput and extending its programmability.Bitcoin has been intentionally built to be minimal, slow, and resistant to change. Its design philosophy prioritizes security and decentralization over scalability, and simplicity over architectural complexity. Its conservative architecture makes it analogous to FedWire as a settlement layer or TCP/IP as the Internet's underlying communications protocol: higher-level layers are built on top of these, adding more functionalities and performance, but the base infrastructure remains simple and robust. https://preview.redd.it/gmv1rqpa7gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=841f54beb3b67316c6e1a17b2f4d80a2443740d0 Bitcoin has a block time) of 10 minutes and a throughput of around seven transactions per second. Improving the speed and throughput on Layer 1 would translate into increased hardware requirements for running full Bitcoin nodes), hurting the network's decentralization, security, and, consequently, censorship resistance—the whole point of blockchains. At the same time, Bitcoin's base layer programmability, speed, and throughput are far from enough to serve the world's needs, which produces the need for higher-level layers. The goal of these systems is to increase Bitcoin’s throughput by orders of magnitude and support more sophisticated applications that require fully expressive smart contracts, greater speed, or better privacy—all without changing the Bitcoin base layer. This way, Bitcoin can have its cake and eat it too, i.e., it can scale and support more sophisticated dApps without compromising its core values. Overview of The Most Popular Bitcoin Layer 2sTo this point, following the recent rise in popularity of digital artifacts or NFTs and BRC20 tokens on Bitcoin in the form of ordinals and inscriptions, the primary focus of enriching Bitcoin seems to have shifted from scalability or throughput-focused Layer 2s like the Lightning Network and Liquid to smart contract-enabled protocols like Rootstock, Stacks, and RGB, as well as more novel solutions like BitVM and the RGB++ protocol built on CKB.The Lightning Network is a payment channel network that allows users to route payments across payment channels and make nearly instantaneous Bitcoin transactions with negligible fees. Because much has already been written about how the Lightning Network works, we won’t dwell too much on it beyond highlighting that it’s the oldest and most widely adopted Bitcoin Layer 2, with over 5,000 BTC locked inside it. https://preview.redd.it/9lg2wgyc7gxc1.png?width=1999&format=png&auto=webp&s=e228e35765bd0b65aa36ec23edbbff6b0aac1892 The total value locked of wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC). Source: DefiLlama. By comparison, over 154,000 wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) are currently circulating on Ethereum, which goes on to show the enormous appetite for using BTC for more than just payments, as a productive asset that can be lent, borrowed, collateralized, used for market-making on AMMs, and so on. Liquid NetworkThe Liquid Network is a federated sidechain developed by Blockstream, a blockchain technology company led by co-founder Adam Back. Back is a notable cryptographer, cypherpunk, and inventor of Hashcash, an algorithm that inspired Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work mining mechanism.In essence, Liquid is a sovereign, permissioned, and, therefore, centralized chain that extends Bitcoin by creating a smoother environment for transacting BTC. It has faster block times (one minute) and two-block settlement finality (block reorganizations are disallowed under its proof of authority consensus). Liquid also allows permissioned issuance of other digital assets, including stablecoins and tokenized securities. https://preview.redd.it/p3ywpmmf7gxc1.png?width=1453&format=png&auto=webp&s=4b66a45566ffb6929f092f1b0f13026f9bfc9766 In the Liquid Network, transactions and blocks are signed by a federation of blocksigners using a BFT consensus algorithm. In contrast, the “peg-out” transactions (BTC withdrawals to Layer 1) are signed by a federation of “watchmen”, essentially drawn from the same pool of about 65 globally distributed federation members, comprising crypto exchanges, financial institutions, and other Bitcoin-focused companies. The “peg-in” or bridging process of transferring BTC to Liquid involves sending it to a Liquid-generated Bitcoin federated address that’s managed by the consortium of functionaries. After the Layer 1 BTC has been transferred to the address, the users receive a synthetic BTC asset on Liquid backed by the real BTC on Layer 1, called Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC). Because the manual peg-in process is somewhat burdensome, requiring considerable technical skills and running both a Bitcoin full node and a Liquid node, most users acquire their L-BTC via third parties. Unlike peg-ins, withdrawals can only be done by Liquid’s federation members. However, regular users can alternatively peg-out by swapping their L-BTC for BTC through third parties, including centralized exchanges or trustless P2P swaps. https://preview.redd.it/vvklm0yh7gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=951277aa4d2f0d1e7c5b319c9f7f9934c2eb3fd8 Finally, it’s important to note that Liquid doesn’t meet the stricter Ethereum definition for Layer 2, as it neither inherits Bitcoin’s security guarantees nor allows permissionless BTC withdrawals solely via a Layer 1 transaction. RootstockIn many ways the opposite of Liquid, Rootstock is significantly closer to the strict definition for Layer 2, meeting one of the two key criteria. It's an EVM-compatible smart contract-enabled sidechain that partially inherits Bitcoin's security via merged mining and links to it via a federated two-way peg. https://preview.redd.it/7fezeusk7gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=16ba67f4c7bda9ebd81c3c2dca339c00a59f6a97 Rootstock goes beyond Liquid in that it doesn't seek only to scale Bitcoin's transaction throughput, but also to extend its programmability. With its Turing-complete smart contracts, Rootstock allows for the use of synthetic Bitcoin (RBTC) across various DeFi applications. Its engine is powered by the Rootstock Virtual Machine (RVM), a forked version of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which is fully compatible with Ethereum smart contracts and tooling. This means Ethereum developers can conveniently deploy their dApps on Rootstock with little to no modifications. However, unlike Liquid, which is a centralized sidechain secured by a federation of pre-selected entities, Rootstock borrows Bitcoin's security via merge mining—a technique allowing Bitcoin miners to concurrently mine Rootstock blocks with nearly zero marginal cost (all that is required is a Rootstock node). This method benefits Bitcoin miners by providing them an additional revenue stream from the Layer 2 transactions (thus also increasing Bitcoin's security budget) and helps Rootstock essentially "free ride" on the back of Bitcoin's exceptional security. As things currently stand, Rootstock is backed by roughly 40% of Bitcoin's hash rate, making it somewhat protected from potential 51% attacks. However, this security largely depends on the Bitcoin miners' self-interest in securing additional revenues from Rootstock transaction fees. If the activity on the sidechain were to drop, the incentives for merge-mining would diminish, leaving Rootstock vulnerable to relatively low-cost 51% attacks and MEV or double-spend-motivated chain reorganizations. While Rootstock has implemented two protection mechanisms to mitigate these risks, “signed notifications” and “transparent double-spend trails”, its security is still far from that of Bitcoin. Moreover, mining a smart contract-enabled chain is not the same as mining Bitcoin. Smart contract chains use substantial computational resources, and once there is substantial smart contract activity on Layer 2, merge-mining could become much less attractive to Bitcoin miners. To this point, expecting or relying on Bitcoin miners to merge mine smart contract layers may not be a good long-term idea, as they can opt-out at any time, a potential risk of centralization in the block production of the merge mined chain. Rootstock's solution for a two-way peg is similar to Liquid’s. Part of the two-way peg system requires trust in a set of semi-trusted third parties, collectively called the Federation. Fully trust-minimized, third-party-free pegs can only be made between two Turing-complete smart contract platforms. However, since Bitcoin isn’t Turing-complete and doesn’t support native opcodes to validate external SPV proofs, any linked two-way pegs must be trusted and somewhat centralized. The bridging process is similar to that on Liquid: BTC is locked on Bitcoin and an equivalent amount of RBTC is minted on Rootstock. The locked Layer 1 BTC is controlled by the Federation, which has the ability to release the funds when users initiate a withdrawal. While this process isn’t necessarily trust-minimized and decentralized, it is automated, meaning withdrawals don’t require actual human intervention. Finally, it’s worth highlighting that since Rootstock doesn’t have its own separate security budget, it doesn’t (need to) have its own native token. Instead, RBTC is the native currency used to pay for transaction fees on Rootstock. StacksRight off the bat, it’s essential to know that as of Bitcoin’s second halving, Stacks will undergo a monumental upgrade, called the Nakamoto Release. Moving forward, we’ll only explain how Stacks will function after the Nakamoto release and not how it did prior.To this point, Stacks is a different type of smart contract layer compared to a sidechain, with a deeper, ongoing relationship with Bitcoin. It aims to give dApp users the best of both worlds: fast transactions with Bitcoin finality. Unlike Bitcoin’s 10-minute block time, Stacks blocks are produced every 5 seconds, with all Layer 2 transactions eventually settling on Bitcoin and benefiting from its exceptional security. Stacks isn’t EVM-compatible; instead, its smart contracts are written in its own proprietary language called Clarity. Unlike Liquid and Rootstock, Stacks has its own native asset, STX, which is central to its novel consensus mechanism dubbed Proof-of-Transfer (PoX). In PoX, Stacks miners spend (already mined) BTC and are rewarded in STX, similar to how Bitcoin miners spend electricity and are rewarded BTC in Proof-of-Work (PoW). Like in PoW, PoX uses a Nakamoto-style single-leader election, where PoX miners bid by spending BTC, and they have a bid-weighted random probability of becoming a leader. In this context, a leader is a miner who’s been selected to mine a Stacks block. https://preview.redd.it/jtg6er6n7gxc1.png?width=1345&format=png&auto=webp&s=c6ee69f018b4756921f0779e27577da32ac14ac1 A graphic showcasing Proof-of-Transfer (PoX). Source: docs.stacks.co The unique feature of Stacks’ consensus mechanism is how deeply it’s intertwined with the Bitcoin blockchain. Namely, using an open bidding process on Bitcoin, a group of Stacks miners is elected to mine Stacks blocks until the next Bitcoin block (at a 10-minute average Bitcoin block time, this is approximately 120 Stacks blocks). Once the miner set is elected, these miners use a BFT-style quorum signing, weighted by their BTC bids, to mine Stacks blocks every 5 seconds until the next Bitcoin block, for which they’re rewarded STX tokens. By leveraging BTC for bidding and Layer 2 miner selection, Stacks’ PoX consensus mechanism reuses the work already done by Bitcoin miners without consuming any significant amount of additional electricity. https://preview.redd.it/j2uzug7p7gxc1.png?width=1758&format=png&auto=webp&s=2f0fd5980d712d526146dd4a8b87a672d773d858 This means that post-Nakamoto upgrade, Stacks has two types of blocks at the Layer 2 level: (a) fast blocks, produced by Stacks miners every 5 seconds via a BFT-style quorum signing, and (b) settlement blocks (produced at every Bitcoin block) that don’t contain any new Layer 2 transactions but only settle the recent sequence of fast blocks (from the Stacks chain) on the Bitcoin chain. The fast blocks are produced as a single sequence between two settlement blocks and don’t fork. According to the Stacks protocol’s forking rules, forks are allowed only on settlement blocks and only at a depth of 1 to 6 Bitcoin confirmations. Stacks settlement blocks depth 7 to the latest finalized block (defined as a settlement block with 150 Bitcoin block confirmations) are “frozen,” meaning miners can fork them only through Stackers’ blessing to “unfreeze” a block. In PoX, Stackers are entities who lock or “stack” STX tokens and perform peg-out signing (explained below) and other consensus-critical tasks, including unfreezing blocks. Settlement blocks with over 150 Bitcoin block confirmations (about a day’s worth of blocks) are considered finalized and can never be forked. In simple terms, this means that most of Stacks’ history, or all blocks older than a day, follow Bitcoin finality and are secured by 100% of Bitcoin’s hash rate. To attack the Stacks history or alter a transaction more than about a day old, an attacker would have to do a deep reorganization of Bitcoin, which is extraordinarily difficult, if not impossible, considering Bitcoin’s current security budget and how decentralized its mining is. Effectively, the Stacks chain has two security budgets: one that includes the BTC spent by Stacks miners and the STX capital locked by Stackers (which secures only the blocks with less than 150 Bitcoin block confirmations), and secondly, Bitcoin’s entire security budget that secures Stacks’ more-than-a-day-old history. This mixed security mechanism makes most of the Stacks chain significantly more secure than Liquid or Rootstock. Similarly, the way Stacks’ two-way peg is designed offers much better security guarantees than those of its federated competitors. Because Stacks has its own native token, it can use clever incentives engineering to deliver a peg that's managed in a permissionless and decentralized way. Namely, the sBTC peg is maintained by the Stackers of the PoX consensus protocol, who lock STX as collateral for the right to sign peg-out transactions and earn BTC rewards. Unlike in federated models of Liquid and Rootstock, in Stacks, anyone can become a Stacker and sign off on peg-outs. The locked or staked STX serves as collateral at risk of slashing to disincentivize bad behavior. Additionally, BTC rewards serve as incentives for honest Stackers who only sign valid peg-outs, not malicious ones. RGBRGB (Really Good Bitcoin) is one of the most novel developments in Bitcoin. It represents a set of open-source protocols for scalable and private smart contracts on Bitcoin and the Lightning Network. \As a smart contracting extension to Bitcoin, RGB is quite different compared to other Bitcoin Layer 2 solutions and even non-Bitcoin smart contract platforms. Namely, it takes smart contracts execution and validation entirely off-chain, using Bitcoin only as a state commitment layer and Bitcoin script as an ownership control system. https://preview.redd.it/gfidjd1s7gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=2beec75c1a2f621b8e6e643593b94d5adaa0693e The entire system is based on client-side validation and single-use seals. Client-side validation means that all RGB smart contracts and transactions are executed and validated by parties to the transactions (off-chain) without posting any data on Bitcoin. The single-use seals (inscribed over Bitcoin or Lightning Network transaction outputs) represent RGB’s security mechanism, allowing any party holding a smart contract’s history to verify the integrity of its execution by combining on-chain and off-chain data. https://preview.redd.it/jqk6tk3v7gxc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=a5c21de68c8c57e330e271ae4624e6ac9951b1b8 Unlike other smart contract platforms, RGB separates the concepts of smart contract issuers, state owners, and state transitions. Namely, each RGB smart contract is represented by some genesis state created by the smart contract issuer and a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of state transitions kept as client-validated (entirely off-chain) data by RGB users. The state is _assigned _to a Bitcoin UTXO, which defines them as “single-use seals”. The party that can spend the corresponding UTXO is called the state _owner _(in the genesis state’s case, that’s the state issuer). The state owner can change the corresponding part of the smart contract state by creating a new state transition and committing it via a transaction that spends the output containing the previous state. In simpler terms, RGB defines smart contract ownership by binding/assigning state via single-use seals to Bitcoin transaction outputs (UTXO’s)—whoever controls the output owns the associated state. However, whereas the ownership defines _who _can change the state, the client-side validation rules define how the state may change. The validation rules are defined by an RGB Schema, a blueprint or standard for constructing RGB smart contracts similar in nature to the ERC standard for token contracts on Ethereum. The Schema defines everything from the types of metadata smart contracts can use to the types of state transitions, seal transitions, state and metadata semantics, etc. In other words, when issuers define their smart contracts, they must ensure they adhere to or “validate against” the particular RGB Schema; otherwise, wallets and exchanges won’t support them. This is because when wallets or exchanges get information about some asset (data and contract), they must validate it against a specific Schema and only accept the asset if it passes the validation against that Schema. The wallets or exchanges will leverage specialized Schema libraries, like “RGB fungible assets” or “RGB collectibles,” instead of a single complex RGB core library. Moving on, RGB operates in “shards,” where each contract has a separate state history and data that never intersects with the states of other smart contracts, allowing for another level of scalability. Importantly, RGB’s sharded nature doesn’t mean its contracts can’t interact. Much to the contrary, they can interoperate via the Bifrost protocol over the Lightning Network, enabling multiparty coordinated state changes that open the door to complex applications, including decentralized exchanges over the Lightning Network and money market protocols. In conclusion, RGB aims to bring smart contracting capabilities to Bitcoin that go far beyond what’s possible on Ethereum, providing more scalable, private, and arguably safer smart contract solutions. ConclusionIn this first part of our two-part series on Bitcoin Layer 2s, we explained how the term “Layer 2” is used differently in a Bitcoin context compared to Ethereum, covered the three oldest and most popular Bitcoin Layer 2 protocols, and provided a technical introduction to the most novel still-in-development Bitcoin Layer 2 solution, RGB.In Part 2, we’ll cover the expansive landscape of new Bitcoin Layer 2 innovations, including RGB++, which is being built on CKB! |
