In the previous article "Looking Back at the BTC Ecology at Babylon TGE", https:// (x.com)/Sea_Bitcoin/status/1895799086156300589， I introduced the operating mechanism of Babylon and also mentioned the upcoming Babylon Genesis. Overall, the Babylon protocol is divided into three stages: Phase 1: Leveraging the supply side, currently over 57000 BTC have been pledged. Phase 2: Launch of Babylon Genesis, also the first Bitcoin Secured Network Phase 3: Activate other BSNs as demanders As the project approaches TGE (OKX has entered pre market contracts today), Phase 1 is coming to an end and Phase 2 is about to begin. The focus of the second stage is to launch the Babylon Genesis mainnet, which is also the first BSN. This article further introduces Babylon Genesis from three aspects. 1/The first L1 blockchain secured by BTC staking In terms of business model, Babylon allows BTC holders to provide security and liquidity for the Bitcoin Secure Network (BSN), while receiving verification rewards (tokens) in return from these networks. The foundation of this model is a technology invented by the Babylon team in 2023, which uses BTC staking produced by PoW to protect PoS chains. Make Bitcoin an interest bearing asset. If all 57000 BTC are registered for Babylon Genesis, the staking market value of Babylon Genesis will rank tenth among all PoS chains. The security of Babylon Genesis comes from dual staking: 100 CometBFT validators run CometBFT consensus, and 60 Bitcoin staking finality providers add Bitcoin finality signatures. This mechanism makes BTC a slaveable asset to constrain validators. 2/Control Platform for Babylon Ecosystem Babylon Genesis is the first BSN and the 'control plane' of the entire Babylon ecosystem, providing the following services for the Bitcoin Protection Network (BSN): Bitcoin timestamp infrastructure: ensuring data synchronization and security. Synchronization of PoS chain and Bitcoin staking data: enabling PoS chain to leverage the security of Bitcoin. Data availability layer: provides support for Bitcoin finality. The economic model of Babylon Genesis is: When other BSNs use these services, they will share verification rewards with Babylon Genesis. This creates a sustainable economic model for all participants in the entire ecosystem. 3/The liquidity hub of BTCFi When it reaches the third stage of development, Babylon Genesis will also become a 'liquidity hub', supporting innovative applications of Bitcoin and BTCFi (Bitcoin Finance). Babylon Genesis is an independent L1 blockchain, on which developers can develop dApps. DEX: AMM Pool for Various LST Tokens and Stablecoins ◦ Bridge free LST casting: Generate liquid collateral directly on Babylon Genesis. BTCFi related applications: including vaults, incentive markets, restacking, and reward mechanisms. All of these applications are protected by the security of Bitcoin, forming the infrastructure layer for Bitcoin liquidity and providing a secure and reliable path for BTCFi. Babylon's mission is to promote the Bitcoin Renaissance and bring a new paradigm to BTCFi: Bitcoin holders can earn verification rewards by staking their Bitcoin securely, while protecting the security of the PoS chain. And Babylon Genesis is a crucial step in the second phase of the entire project.
