BitcoinOS
BitcoinOS (BOS) is a modular, open source smart contract platform designed to bring scalable, interoperable, and programmable functionality to Bitcoin without altering its base layer. Utilizing zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs through its BitSNARK protocol, BOS enables the execution of smart contracts directly on Bitcoin's mainnet, facilitating decentralized applications (dApps), decentralized finance (DeFi), and trustless cross-chain interactions. BitcoinOS' architecture comprises three layers: the Bitcoin Core base layer, an execution layer that aggregates and compresses transactions, and a compute layer consisting of interoperable rollups called Execution Environment Modules (EEMs). These EEMs support various virtual machines, including Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and Rust-based environments, allowing developers to build applications in multiple programming languages.
