The Aptos Foundation has announced that Stacks, the Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol, will integrate Bitcoin into the Aptos ecosystem. The integration will introduce sBTC, a Bitcoin-backed token, which allows Bitcoin to be securely transferred to Layer 2 networks like Stacks. This move will enable developers to incorporate Bitcoin into decentralized applications on Aptos, expanding the functionality and use of Bitcoin beyond just being held as a store of value. The collaboration between Aptos and Stacks aims to leverage the strengths of both platforms and bring real-world use cases to Bitcoin within the Web3 paradigm. This integration is seen as reducing barriers between Bitcoin and real-world applications.
