Antpool, Fireblocks Join Botanix's Decentralized Validator Federation

Antpool and Fireblocks Reshape Botanix Governance

In a significant move, Antpool and Fireblocks joined the Botanix validator federation, prompting a shift from centralized control. Decentralized governance now guides the Botanix Layer 2 network on Bitcoin.

The founding team, led by Willem Schroé and Armin Sabouri, welcomes new partners into the federation. This marks a transition to a dynamic federated model enhancing network security and efficiency.

“Once the transaction is constructed, all federation members jointly sign it using their FROST key shares.” — Willem Schroé, Founder and CEO, Botanix Labs

Institutional Interest Grows with New Federation Model

The federation’s new structure is poised to attract institutional participation, bolstering trust in Botanix and potentially leading to increased transaction volumes. Cryptocurrency observers are closely watching the unfolding impact.

Experts predict this expansion could boost financial inflows, noting historic successes of similar open-federation models in the crypto space. The changes align with Botanix’s strategic aims to enhance compliance and institutional uptake.

Botanix’s Move Echoes Liquid Network’s Success

Botanix’s approach mirrors the Liquid Network in adopting a federated governance model, seeking to enhance Bitcoin’s usability. Such models historically improve network reliability and foster user trust.

Kanalcoin experts suggest that the inclusion of institutional partners like Antpool could drive Bitcoin and Ethereum asset appreciation within Botanix. Historical trends indicate positive outcomes from similar protocol expansions.
