Babylon deepens technical cooperation with Sui, taking the integration of Sui and Bitcoin to new heights.
Bitcoin staking protocol developer Babylon Labs and the pioneering Layer 1 public chain Sui (built for large-scale applications, security, and scalability) jointly announced today that Sui will play a more significant role in the Babylon Bitcoin ecosystem. This upgrade is a further deepening of the collaboration since the announcement of the integration of the Babylon Bitcoin staking protocol last year, with Sui officially becoming the Bitcoin Enhanced Network (BSN) on the Babylon protocol.
How Babylon Bitcoin Staking Works on the Sui Network
Bitcoin holders can now provide additional security for the Sui network through the Babylon protocol while fully self-custodying their Bitcoin and simultaneously earning staking rewards. This mechanism allows Sui to enhance network security using staked Bitcoin while establishing a convenient pathway for participants into the Sui ecosystem, offering Bitcoin holders unprecedented opportunities to engage in the DeFi space with higher security.
Fisher Yu, Chief Technology Officer of Babylon Labs, stated:
"Babylon and Sui are jointly building a technical foundation to deepen cross-chain utility, creating more revenue opportunities for Bitcoin holders seeking a safer DeFi entry. As the infrastructure layer for Bitcoin, Babylon ensures the security of decentralized systems through a trustless, self-custodied Bitcoin staking mechanism, thereby unlocking the full potential of Bitcoin's utility. Through the Babylon Bitcoin staking protocol, Sui can access the largest and most decentralized security network globally while opening new opportunities for Bitcoin holders."
Evan Cheng, co-founder and CEO of Sui's initial development team Mysten Labs, stated:
"Our ongoing collaboration with Babylon Labs aims to bring Bitcoin's core advantages—scalability, security, and liquidity—into a high-performance DeFi ecosystem. This integration further solidifies Sui's position as the preferred platform for Bitcoin DeFi, enabling Bitcoin holders to utilize this asset more efficiently to create value."
Through the integration with Babylon, Sui introduces a new economic primitive: Bitcoin-backed scalability. The integrated infrastructure will expand Bitcoin's liquidity and security alongside the Sui network, unlocking new applications and decentralized services secured by Bitcoin.
This integration represents a broader shift in the blockchain industry—$1.5 trillion in assets (Bitcoin) being leveraged to protect and empower fast, scalable, programmable blockchain ecosystems like Sui. For Bitcoin holders, the Babylon protocol allows users to programmatically convert their active assets into a cornerstone for generating revenue, further extending Bitcoin's utility beyond value storage and transactional medium, making it an active component of the broader digital economy.
About Babylon Labs
Babylon Labs focuses on Bitcoin security sharing protocols, dedicated to building a decentralized world secured by Bitcoin. The latest development from Babylon Labs is the world's first trustless, self-custodied Bitcoin staking protocol, allowing holders to stake Bitcoin directly in decentralized systems such as PoS chains, Layer 2 networks, and data availability (DA) layers without relying on third-party custody, cross-chain bridges, or wrapping services to earn staking rewards. This innovation aims to combine Bitcoin's high security and widespread adoption with the efficient scalability of PoS systems, significantly expanding Bitcoin's practical value.
