Core

Core blockchain enables self-custodial Bitcoin staking where users timelock Bitcoin directly on the Bitcoin blockchain while maintaining full control of their assets. Through Bitcoin's native CLTV timelock feature, users can earn CORE token rewards without wrapping, bridging, or transferring custody.

The platform operates on Satoshi Plus consensus, combining three delegation mechanisms: Bitcoin holders timelock Bitcoin to vote for validators, CORE token holders stake to elect validators, and Bitcoin miners direct hash power through delegated proof of work. This creates a unique security model leveraging Bitcoin's established network effects.

Dual Staking multiplies rewards by combining Bitcoin staking with CORE token staking. Users can achieve higher yield tiers based on their CORE-to-Bitcoin ratio, with the Satoshi Tier offering maximum returns. The reward structure creates mathematical advantages for committed participants.

Key features include:

• No custody risk: Bitcoin never leaves your wallet during staking
• No slashing penalties: Unlike traditional PoS, Bitcoin staking carries no principal risk
• EVM compatibility: Access full DeFi ecosystem with high throughput and low fees
• Institutional solutions: lstBTC provides liquid yield-bearing Bitcoin through regulated custodians

The ecosystem supports lending, yield farming, NFTs, gaming, and bridges, creating comprehensive Bitcoin DeFi infrastructure. With over 1M weekly active users and sub-cent transaction fees, Core provides scalable access to Bitcoin-secured decentralized finance.
