 At
a
time
when
development
on
Bitcoin
reaches
new
heights, Lorenzo
Protocol stands
at
the
forefront
of
reshaping
the
Bitcoin
infrastructure
and
DeFi
landscape.
Lorenzo
Protocol
is
building
the
first-ever
Bitcoin
liquid
restaking
protocol
to
share
Bitcoin
securities
with
other
protocols,
dApps,
and

development
unveiled
today
is
their

a
move
poised
to
fundamentally
transform
Bitcoin’s
economic
potential
and

The
company’s
product,
Lorenzo
Bitcoin
Liquid
Restaking,
will
be
constructed
utilizing
Babylon
technology.
This
solution
encompasses
the
creation
of
BTC
liquid
restaking
tokens
(stBTC)
corresponding
to
staked
BTC
on
Babylon’s
Bitcoin
staking
protocol,
enabling
the
staking
of
minimal
BTC
amounts
for
retail
stakers,
and
implementing
a
suite
of
mechanisms
to
guarantee
the
security
of
the
restaking
process.

Lorenzo
Protocol’s
strategic
integration
with
Babylon
emphasizes
a
dedication
to
enhancing
the
Bitcoin
ecosystem’s
scalability,
security,
and
innovativeness–
promising
to
unlock
unprecedented
opportunities
for
Bitcoin
market
liquidity
and
developer
ecosystem.

How
Babylon
Empowers
Lorenzo
Bitcoin
Liquid
Restaking

• 
  BTC
  Shared
  Security:
  Lorenzo
  Protocol
  will
  be
  secured
  by
  Bitcoin
  via
  Babylon’s
  Bitcoin
  staking
  and
  timestamping
  protocols.

• 
  stBTC
  Represents
  Bitcoin
  Staked
  Via
  Babylon: Lorenzo
  Protocol’s
  BTC
  liquid
  restaking
  tokens
  (stBTC)
  will
  be
  representations
  of
  Bitcoin
  staked
  through
  Babylon’s
  Bitcoin
  restaking
  protocol.

• 
  Security
  Alignment
  With
  Babylon
  Secured
  Layer
  2s: There
  is
  a
  security
  alignment
  with
  the
  liquid
  restaking
  tokens
  only
  being
  available
  on
  Layer
  2s
  (L2)
  that
  are
  secured
  by
  Babylon’s
  Bitcoin
  staking
  and
  timestamping
  protocol.

Lorenzo
Protocol’s
innovative
approach
maintains
liquidity
after
restaking,
enables
the
staking
of
small
amounts
of
Bitcoin,
and
incorporates
anti-slashing
mechanisms
to
protect
liquid
restakers.
Lorenzo
Bitcoin
Liquid
Restaking
empowers
Bitcoin
holders
to
engage
fully
in
the
Bitcoin
economy,
thereby
expanding
Bitcoin’s
global
influence.

Furthermore,
as
part
of
its
strategic
direction,
Lorenzo
Protocol
is
also
developing
flexible,
modular
Bitcoin
L2
architecture.
This
approach
allows
for
the
creation
of
personalized,
scalable,
and
secure
L2
solutions,
thereby
facilitating
the
growth
of
Bitcoin-based
decentralized
finance
(DeFi),
artificial
intelligence,
gaming,
and
all
kinds
of
app
chains–
ensuring
the
network’s
readiness
to
meet
the
rising
demand
for
scaling
Bitcoin
for
different
purposes.
