The first-of-its-kind DeFi liquidity protocol focusing on redefining trust and security for DeFi
Granite, a groundbreaking Bitcoin DeFi liquidity protocol that empowers users with unprecedented security and control over their Bitcoin assets, today announced its launch. Incubated by Trust Machines, Granite represents a significant evolution in the DeFi landscape, setting new standards for transparency and user-centric financial services – all backed by the power of Bitcoin L2s.
Granite enables BTC users to access DeFi without centralized custodians by leveraging Stacks’ recently-launched Nakamoto upgrade and sBTC Bitcoin bridge. The Nakamoto upgrade increased Stacks’ block speed 100x while maintaining its unique proof-of-transfer (PoX) consensus mechanism and Bitcoin finality. sBTC is an open-source Bitcoin bridge secured and managed by an open network of Stacks validators via a threshold signature script on the Bitcoin blockchain, allowing for the permissionless and decentralized use of BTC in DeFi. Together, these upgrades pave the way for Bitcoin DeFi.
