Good time to tee up our recent article outlining the present and future utilities of the GOATED token. Read all about it at the GOAT Foundation website: goatfoundation.io/blog/introduci… ...and follow GOAT Foundation here on X for future updates.

A new vision for a Bitcoin-secured digital economy that serves not only individuals and institutions, but agents too. A new brand. A new website. A new era. GOAT.Network

The “Agent Economy on Bitcoin” Global Hackathon is live. If you’re building AI agents that need native payments (x402) and verifiable identity/reputation (ERC-8004), then here is everything you need: why the hackathon exists, the timeline, how to register, prizes, and developer resources 👇 goat.network/blog/unlock-x4…

Our Global Hackathon lands in San Francisco this week 🌎 If you have what it takes to build an AI-powered application using @openclaw, then join us this Saturday 28th at @frontiertower for the chance to win: • a Mac Mini • USDT • Ecosystem Grants Details & RSVP below 👇

The GOAT Network BitVM2 testnet is picking up speed, with 3.27 tBTC already bridged in. No other Bitcoin bridge combines trust-minimized security with a decentralized, Ethereum-equivalent execution environment. Test it yourself 👉 bitvm2-testnet4.goat.network Join the Testnet campaign 👉 goat.network/blog/bitvm2-ge…

The GOAT BitVM2 Testnet is already seeing real bridge flow and successful withdrawals. • 0.98 tBTC bridged in across 80 transactions • 0.36 PegBTC bridged out (62 txs) • 0.38 tBTC withdrawn via peg-out (20 txs) • 6/6 nodes online with zero downtime so far This testnet phase is about validating the full system under real usage, especially trust-minimized withdrawals.

Why do we build regardless of market conditions? CEO @kevinliu on the importance of expanding Bitcoin's utility and keeping it relevant as AI scales 👇

Our R&D team has been working on Ziren since early 2023. Now it's the proving engine of the first full-stack Bitcoin L2.

Why is the GOAT BitVM2 Testnet such an important milestone? CEO @kevinliu explains the vision and what a native L2 can unlock for the Bitcoin community. Learn how to get involved in Phase 1: goat.network/blog/bitvm2-ge…

GOAT Network just shipped a major milestone: GOAT BitVM2 Testnet. In this message to the Bitcoin community, CEO @kevinliu explains what we've built, why it's so important for a usable Bitcoin economy, and why we keep building regardless of market conditions.

If you’re tracking BitVM-style settlement designs, GOAT BitVM2 is the most advanced path to Bitcoin-enforced zkRollup settlement. Read about it at Bitcoin.com 👇 news.bitcoin.com/goat-network-l…

We just announced GOAT BitVM2 Testnet - the final pre-mainnet milestone for Bitcoin-native finance. Get started here: bitvm2-testnet4.goat.network/bridge-in Read all about it with @Cointelegraph 👇 cointelegraph.com/press-releases…

The GOAT BitVM2 Testnet (V3) Is Live 🟡 This is the first public testnet where GOAT BitVM2 is fully integrated into the GOAT zkRollup stack - and it’s the final testnet before mainnet. User guide: docs.goat.network/users/goat-bit… Bridge in: bitvm2-testnet4.goat.network/bridge-in

BTCFi hasn’t started yet because we haven't had a real Bitcoin L2. GOAT BitVM2 is about to change that. As we approach our biggest milestone to date - enabling a real native Bitcoin zkRollup for the first time - we’ve been reflecting on the GOAT Network history and vision: why we started, what we’ve shipped so far, and what's still to come: goat.network/blog/the-goat-… BTCFi is here at last.

GOAT Network is partnering with @Ditobanx, one of the fastest-growing fintech platforms in Latin America, to bring secure, native Bitcoin yield to more than 100,000 users - all through a white-labeled version of Safebox, our custody-preserving Bitcoin yield product. DitoBanx clients range from individuals and SMEs seeking faster, lower-cost payments to large enterprises looking for compliant tokenization and turnkey digital asset infrastructure. This partnership demonstrates how a single integration can onboard tens of thousands of users to GOAT Network and validates the core architecture we’ve built: a sustainable yield product that works at fintech scale. Full details: goat.network/blog/goat-netw… We’re now preparing to roll out full BitVM2 bridging, ship a redesigned user experience, and open the door for more institutions to offer secure BTC yield to their customers. This is how Bitcoin yield should work. Get started with Safebox today at safebox.goat.network

Quick preview of the upcoming GOAT BitVM2 White Paper 👀 The full paper details how BitVM2 fits into the GOAT Rollup stack, and the enhancements we made to standard BitVM2 using garbled circuits and a DV-SNARK to reduce worst-case dispute overhead. GOAT BitVM2 testnet soon..

BitVM2 is where a Bitcoin L2 earns its security - a dispute system enforceable by Bitcoin. But there’s a second requirement people miss: the dispute path is only as correct as the execution layer it’s checking. If the zkVM is brittle, unaudited, or externally dependent, the overall enforcement mechanism is incomplete. That’s why we custom-built Ziren end-to-end for Bitcoin Rollup constraints, and why we put it through rigorous auditing before production use. Maintainable, upgradeable, and engineered for correctness at the circuit/machine layer.

Over half a decade ago, our team set out to scale Ethereum with an Optimistic Rollup. With maintaining full decentralization as our north star, we pioneered the decentralized sequencer - and we began building a general-purpose zkVM to bring an even more trust-minimized way to settle transactions back to the L1. But Bitcoin was always our first love. When we first heard about BitVM theory (thanks to @robin_linus) and realized it was possible (even if brutally hard) to build a zkRollup on Bitcoin - to make it faster, cheaper, and more generally usable - we had no choice but to try. So we did. With a mission to solve the two biggest challenges in BTCFi  -  transactional security and sustainable yield - we brought the best tech and the hard-earned lessons from Ethereum to Bitcoin: a live decentralized sequencer network with a sustainable economic design, and a zkVM built for Bitcoin Rollup constraints and fully audited for execution integrity. GOAT BitVM2 is the culmination of years of R&D into scaling blockchain systems - now coming to the chain that started it all, and the one we believe will finish it: Bitcoin.
