LayerEdge
The LayerEdge Testnet Node deployment initiative via NodeOps Console is now concluded.
LayerEdge is a decentralized network layer leveraging Bitcoin internet, using trust minimized verification and proof aggregation for all layers and apps.
LayerEdge leverages the capabilities of Bitcoin's Blockspace with ZK & BitVM, enabling every layer to be secured on Bitcoin. LayerEdge aims to reduce Bitcoin L1 settlement costs through shared transactions, and up to 99% reduction in proof verification costs through aggregation. A feedback cycle means that as more protocols join the network, costs decrease further. Predictive models suggest that the cost of a single proof verification could drop by 97.78% to $20 per protocol on Bitcoin, in a network of 50+ protocols.
This guide walks you through deploying LayerEdge Testnet Nodes Powered by NodeOps.
