Bitvm
La programmabilité de Bitcoin, similaire à celle d'Ethereum, pourrait arriver d'ici 12 mois, selon le fondateur de Rootstock
Le nouveau projet s'appuierait sur la conception très discutée de « BitVM » publiée l'année dernière par le développeur Robin Linus, qui a suscité l'espoir que la blockchain la plus ancienne et la plus grande pourrait éventuellement voir des réseaux programmables de couche 2 de style Ethereum.
BitVM Uses a 'Compilation of a Couple Tricks' to Overcome Limitations of Bitcoin's Script: Robin Linus
BitVM, as it is known, was laid out in an Oct. 9 whitepaper by Robin Linus, a core contributor to ZeroSync, which is building tools for developers to use zero-knowledge proofs on Bitcoin. "Bitcoin's script is intentionally limited to reduce the attack surface," Linus said. BitVM applies "a compilation of a couple tricks that allow you to overcome the limitations of Bitcoin's script."
Bitcoin Could Get Ethereum-Style Smart Contracts Under 'BitVM' Plan
A goal of Robin Linus's design for "BitVM" is to enable Turing-complete Bitcoin contracts – making the blockchain programmable, similar to a computer – without making the network more complicated for other users. ZeroSync co-founder Robin Linus shares insights into the proposal and the solutions it could offer.
