Bitcoin recently hit a historic all-time high of $123,000, sparking renewed global interest in its financial potential.

Riding this momentum, LayerBTC has announced the launch of its $LBTC token presale, introducing a new project designed to expand Bitcoin’s decentralized finance (DeFi) and infrastructure ecosystem.

A Scalable Layer 2 Network for Bitcoin

LayerBTC is a Bitcoin Layer 2 network built to support scalable applications, digital assets, and DeFi.

The platform equips developers, businesses, and communities with the necessary tools to build on Bitcoin without sacrificing speed, flexibility, or sustainability.

Although the $LBTC token is not required to access LayerBTC’s core infrastructure, it offers users optional benefits, including access to advanced features, reduced service fees, and licensing for development tools.

The $LBTC token operates as a utility asset within the LayerBTC ecosystem, facilitating platform services and contributing to operational sustainability.

The total fixed supply stands at 12 billion tokens, with 30% allocated for public sale, 25% for ecosystem growth, and the remainder reserved for staking rewards, liquidity, team members, advisors, and strategic contributors.

Round 1 of the public sale is nearing completion, having raised over $340,000 so far. Currently, $LBTC is priced at $0.00088, with a confirmed listing price of $0.06.

Investors can participate using multiple assets, including USDT, USDC, Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana, through crypto wallets or bank cards.

LayerBTC’s roadmap begins with the ongoing presale and MVP finalization in Q3 2025. Q4 will bring a developer testnet and SDKs in various programming languages for integration with wallets and apps.

By Q1 2026, LayerBTC plans to launch mainnet smart vaults, open its developer grant program, and release SDK v1.0 for production-ready applications.

As Bitcoin evolves, LayerBTC aims to build the infrastructure necessary to expand Bitcoin’s utility beyond being a store of value, supporting a new wave of Bitcoin-native innovation.
