We're excited to announce that BirdLayer, formerly DODOchain, is integrating the Babylon Bitcoin staking protocol to become a Bitcoin Secured Network (BSN)!
BirdLayer is a cross-chain communication platform designed to make blockchains more interoperable. Some of its key features include reduced costs for connecting blockchains and cross-chain liquidity pools and currently serves EVM chains, Solana, and the TON ecosystem.
BirdLayer aims to expand its capabilities to include a wider range of blockchains, with a particular focus on integrating with the Bitcoin ecosystem.
To achieve this goal, BirdLayer will introduce BLITZ by AltLayer into its architecture. Built using Babylon Bitcoin staking, BLITZ will help provide robust cross-chain validation capabilities to BirdLayer.
By integrating with Babylon, BirdLayer will become a Bitcoin Secured Network (BSN) and will leverage Bitcoin's security to strengthen its network and cross-chain capabilities.
What are Bitcoin Secured Networks (BSNs)?
BSNs are decentralized networks that use Bitcoin's robust security through the Babylon protocol. By staking BTC with Babylon, users directly support the security of these networks. This approach offers several key advantages:
- Security: BSNs inherit Bitcoin's security without relying on intermediaries or bridges.
- Decentralization: BSNs tap into Bitcoin, the most decentralized network to become more resilient and resistant to censorship.
- Liquidity: BSNs can benefit from Bitcoin’s roughly $2 trillion in idle liquidity.
- Fast finality: Transactions on BSNs can benefit from quicker confirmation times.
Looking Ahead

About Babylon Labs
Babylon Labs focuses on Bitcoin security-sharing protocols with a vision of building a Bitcoin-secured decentralized world. The latest software development is the world's first trust less and self-custodial Bitcoin staking protocol, which enables Bitcoin holders to stake their BTC on other decentralized systems such as PoS chains, L2s, Data Availability (DA) layers, etc, enabling stakers to earn staking rewards without the need for third-party custody, bridge solutions, or wrapping services. The greater idea is to combine the high security and wide adoption of Bitcoin with the efficiency and scalability of PoS systems, increasing Bitcoin's utility.
