Bitcoin secured multiside chain
Built for your use case
BitVM Network is a modular framework for Bitcoin-anchored multiside chain. Zero-knowledge, federation-backed or fully trust-minimized designs using BitVM.
Why Build Your Own Sidechain
Bitcoin is the strongest settlement layer ever created, but it’s not designed for complex application logic. A sidechain lets you extend Bitcoin without changing it.
Unlock new execution
Smart contracts, high throughput, custom VMs, post quantum cryptography all without compromising Bitcoin.
Control your governance
Run your own rules, upgrades, and validator set. Ideal for enterprises, regulated systems, and consortium networks.
Private & custom settlement
Handle internal ledgers, institutional clearing, and private flows without exposing everything to a public chain.
Deployment Models
Two ways to secure your peg
Federation + Merge Mine
Fast. Familiar. Protected.
k of n federation manages peg
AuxPoW consensus rules
Predictable operations and governance
YubiHSM, Coldcard, and Securosys support
≥1 honest member OR any watcher
Snark + BitVM Backstop
Fast. Familiar. Protected.
k of n federation manages peg
BitVM fraud proofs prevent theft
SNARK verifier for proof validation
≥1 honest member OR any watcher
Architecture Modular by design
Each deployment is built from independent layers

Any Execution Layer.
Bitcoin pegged.
Choose what powers your application we secure it with Bitcoin.
BIP-360
Bitcoin style chain with post quantum signatures. UTXO model. Ideal for treasury & secure flows.
EVM
Full Ethereum compatibility. Deploy existing dApps instantly with Solidity, Vyper, and MetaMask.
Beyond
Cosmos, Substrate, or fully custom VMs if it can connect to a Bitcoin peg, it can run here.
