B² Network Mainnet Launch and Interaction Guide

Recently, the modular BTC Layer2 solution B² Network announced that its Mainnet is officially open to the general public, and a series of Mainnet activities have been gradually announced. As a leading project in the BTC Layer2 field, the launch of B² Network's Mainnet has attracted widespread attention. This article will outline the main interaction channels of B² Network for readers.

1. Introduction to B² Network

B² Network is an innovative modular BTC Layer2 solution. It has pioneered the B² Rollup and has recently officially launched on the Mainnet. B² Network adopts a unique commitment verification scheme, successfully achieving Rollup verification on the Bitcoin Mainnet, addressing the key issue that most BTC Layer2 projects have yet to overcome — the inability to inherit the security of the Bitcoin Mainnet. Based on this, B² Network has standardized this solution and launched a DA solution, providing other Layer2 projects with the capability to perform Rollup commitment verification on the Bitcoin network.

The core component of the B² Network, B² Hub, plans to enhance its security by integrating Bitcoin staking functionality. At the same time, B² Network intends to introduce Bitcoin staking capabilities in the B² Rollup, supporting BTC LSD and BTC re-staking scenarios for B² Rollup. It is worth mentioning that many of the technical architectures of BTC Rollup currently on the market have drawn inspiration from the technical solutions of B² Network. In the future, it can be expected that more BTC Layer2 projects focused on application layer construction will adopt this solution to achieve data availability in a simple and efficient manner.

From the user experience perspective, B² Network performs excellently among BTC Layer2 projects, with smooth and stable operations. The project launched three versions of its testnet in the early stages, with an overall testing duration that is relatively long among BTC Layer2 projects, making it one of the projects that place the highest emphasis on chain performance.

B² Network has a strong investment background, including several well-known institutions. At its peak, B² Network's TVL reached over $600 million. The official confirmation states that 5% of the tokens will be airdropped to staking users. Unlike other staking projects, B² Network closed its deposit channel on March 12, ensuring the returns for participating users.

B² Network is one of the richest projects in the BTC Layer 2 ecosystem. In January of this year, the project announced a million-dollar Grant program and has issued three rounds of funding. There are many high-quality projects within the ecosystem, and the infrastructure and DeFi applications have been well-prepared before the Mainnet launch.

Overall, B² Network stands out with its strong technical strength, grand development vision, excellent background resources, and continuous construction capability. As one of the most popular BTC Layer2 projects currently, it is worth users' attention and participation.

2. Interaction List

According to the rules announced by the official, there are currently two main types of interaction opportunities: B² Discovery and B² Buzz. B² Discovery does not require asset participation, while B² Buzz is related to assets. The official has clearly stated that 30% of the tokens will be distributed to users through B² Buzz, including a 5% share for users who made deposits previously. Although B² Discovery has confirmed an airdrop, the specific ratio has not yet been announced.

1. B² Buzz

B² Buzz includes activity plans related to assets and on-chain activities, such as bridging, Runes events, staking alliances, Bitcoin expansion network activities, etc. The official confirmation states that 30% of the tokens will be released to users through Buzz, with bridging activities accounting for 0.5%.

Bridge Guide:

Currently, there are multiple bridges available, including the official bridge Particle Network and third-party bridges such as Meson.Fi, Owlto Finance, OmniBTC, Mini Bridge, and Bool Network. These bridges support different tokens and cross-chain conversions.

Taking the official bridge as an example, users only need to fill in the amount of BTC to be transferred and connect the corresponding wallet to bridge it. Instant arrival can be achieved from EVM chain to B².

It is worth noting that Meson has launched a cross-bridge incentive program. Users can earn 100 points by bridging $1000 from most chains through Meson, and simultaneously receive dual rewards from both Meson and B².

2. B² Discovery

B² Discovery currently has a total of 7 activities, 4 of which have already started. The main activities include:

① Explore the B² ecosystem with Okapi

Users can complete tasks through the Okapi platform to qualify for minting NFTs on the B² Mainnet.

② Co-create BTC GPT (Flock.io)

B² has partnered with Flock to launch the BTC GPT co-creation event. Users who complete the event can receive multiple rewards, including Flock points, co-branded NFTs, and rewards from the B² Bridge event.

③ Runes Ecosystem Activity (Nat Jaguar)

Participants can create content related to runes or B² for a chance to share in the prize pool and mint special medals.

④ User Conversion from Web2 to Web3 (UXlink)

Users can share the bonus pool and obtain UXUT and whitelist eligibility by completing simple tasks on UXLink.

3. Other On-Chain Interactions

The B² ecosystem projects are being deployed successively, and some interactive opportunities worth noting include:

• GlowSwap: Token swaps and providing liquidity
• Particle: Conduct token transfers
• LayerCraft: Minting and Trading NFTs
• Secondlive: Complete tasks
• Bitcoin Loot: Participate in GameFi projects
• Guts: Claim airdrop tokens

In conclusion, the launch of the B² Network Mainnet brings rich interactive opportunities for users. Whether it is the asset-related B² Buzz activities or the asset-free B² Discovery activities, they provide users with diverse participation pathways. With the continuous development of the ecosystem, more interesting projects and activities are expected to emerge. Users can choose suitable interaction methods based on their own situations and participate in this promising BTC Layer2 ecosystem.
