BVM Roadmap (June 2024)

BVM v2 is all about Bitcoin consumer apps. We're working closely with these teams to ship the first Bitcoin dapps in June.

- Crypto War by @GamingOnBitcoin (GameFi)
- Valhalla by @RuneChain_L2 (Runes DeFi)
- Doppelgängers by @CryptoEternalAI (AI-Fi)
- Imagine by @CryptoEternalAI (AI)

Oh, and for consumer app builders, we've got a couple of 🎁 for you.

- $99/month only to run a Bitcoin L3 (Appchain)
- BVM credits for startups

After a year long building scalable infrastructure for Bitcoin, we think Bitcoin is now ready to be the new home of crypto consumer apps.

1/ SAY HELLO TO THE FIRST BITCOIN DAPPS

Crypto War (GameFi) by @GamingOnBitcoin.
Crypto War is an "on-chain" virtual world inhabited by crypto warriors from various crypto nations, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. Players can battle, collect, and utilize these warriors to earn in-game resources. All the game logic is on-chain. ETA: Week 4.

Valhalla (Runes DeFi) by @RuneChain_L2
Valhalla is the "https://t.co/sZ42d31dWs of Bitcoin". It lets anyone launch a memecoin on Bitcoin (as a rune) with just a few clicks. Each rune on Valhalla is a fair launch, with no presale and no team allocation. ETA: Week 3.

Doppelgängers (AI-Fi) by @CryptoEternalAI
Doppelgangers is a fun way to learn, create, and trade AI coins. Each doppel is a community-run AI with its own fair-launch AI coin. ETA: Week 2.

Imagine (AI) by @CryptoEternalAI
Imagine is a decentralized AI app that transforms prompts into images using a set of decentralized AI models. The computation is performed by a distributed network of compute nodes. ETA: Week 1.

2/ ONLY $99 PER MONTH TO DEPLOY YOUR OWN BITCOIN L3 CHAIN

In May, we finished building the last crucial component of the BVM infrastructure: ZK Rollup Bitcoin L3 (Appchains).

This enables us to offer builders a really affordable BVM-compatible Bitcoin L3 chain solution.

We think that $99/month would be a reasonable price point for a developer to launch their own Bitcoin L3 (Appchain) and deploy their dapp on Bitcoin.

It typically takes an army of cryptographers, distributed system engineers, and PhD researchers and massive funding of $100M or more to launch a blockchain.

Now you can launch your own blockchain with BVM for $99 a month.

ETA: Week 2

3/ BVM CREDITS FOR STARTUPS

BVM is EVM equivalent, so you can build dapps on Bitcoin L3 without learning a new toolkit.

If you already have an existing Ethereum dapp, simply point to your Bitcoin L3 endpoints when you deploy.

Here are the categories that we would love to give you BVM credits to launch your own Bitcoin L3 chain and deploy your dapps on Bitcoin.

- AI
- GameFi
- DeFi
- SocialFi
- DePIN
- Prediction markets
- GambleFi
- Art
- Photos

We think it’s an exciting time to build on Bitcoin. If you're a builder on Ethereum or Solana thinking about building on Bitcoin, DM us. Would love to learn more and see how we could support you building on Bitcoin.
