🧡We're excited to announce that #Bitlayer has successfully migrated to the
chainlink interoperability standard as its canonical cross-chain infrastructure!

Chainlink CCIP now powers secure, cross-chain transfers of $BTR, $USDC, $USDT, $ETH, and $wstETH between Bitlayer and Ethereum, soon expanding to include $YBTC, combining BitVM security with CCIP’s industry-standard connectivity.

This enables BTC liquidity to flow securely and efficiently across ecosystems, significantly accelerating the adoption of Bitlayer.
