Bitcoin is the most-known cryptocurrency worldwide 🟧

As L2s unlock Bitcoin DeFi and NFTs, they will benefit from the Bitcoin network effects
Solving pain points for BTC holders is a huge market opportunity 😉

Two prominent Web3 investment firms have recently dropped their analysis on Stacks and Bitcoin Layer 2 solutions.
Here's a glimpse into their key insights:
🔍 Strong Bitcoin Blockspace Demand: The surge in demand, especially fueled by Ordinals and BRC-20, proves a robust appeal of Bitcoin's blockspace
🌐 Reinforced Global Asset Status of BTC: Bitcoin's ongoing strengthening of its brand and the potential incoming Bitcoin ETF further solidify its position as a global asset
⚡️Growing Demand for Active BTC Use: The increasing demand for actively using BTC to enhance its utility is a clear indicator of the evolving landscape
These milestones and narratives are confirming the need for Bitcoin L2s, such as Stacks, to explore more complex BTC applications.
Moreover, the upcoming Nakamoto and sBTC upgrades are poised to unleash a wave of innovation and possibilities for DeFi and Web3 apps in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
