layer

Layer is an Ethereum scaling solution that utilizes Web Assembly, allowing developers to write applications in languages like Rust that can run anywhere—even on an iPhone. Layer's product "Layer SDK" enables developers to build new layers on Ethereum, which run blockchain-based full-stack applications, including smart contracts, consensus mechanisms, UI, and verifiable off-chain services (AI agents, ZK provers, serverless functions, decentralized messaging servers, etc.).

Michael Saylor: The biggest evolution of BTC in the next decade is the stability of the protocol layer, while expanding in the capital markets and application layer

Michael Saylor stated that the biggest evolution of Bitcoin in the next decade will come from fewer changes at the protocol layer and a greater role in other areas. He believes that the foundational layer of Bitcoin will become more solid, capital markets will continue to deepen, applications will expand, institutions will enter, and the world will build on Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not a tech stock, a payment company, or a software platform competing to add features, but a monetary network whose purpose is not to act quickly and disrupt things, but to move slowly and remain unbroken.Saylor indicated that Bitcoin has won the first important battle, and the world is increasingly understanding that Bitcoin is digital capital, possessing attributes such as scarcity, durability, portability, divisibility, programmability, and global transferability. The strongest version of Bitcoin is not to "replace all payment rails," but to become a neutral, global, scarce asset around which capital, credit, and commerce are organized. The foundational layer is not optimized for coffee payments, but designed for final settlement, reserve assets, collateral settlement, and ultimate ownership transfer.He believes that the four-year cycle of Bitcoin is still important, but no longer the dominant model. In the next decade, Bitcoin's price movements will be driven less by miner issuance and more by capital flows from ETFs, corporate treasuries, sovereign reserves, bank credit, derivatives, insurance, collateral, and global savings. Halving will tighten supply, while capital flows will determine the growth trajectory. Digital credit will accelerate Bitcoin adoption, connecting Bitcoin capital with the broader financial system.Saylor stated that the main question in the next decade is not whether Bitcoin can survive, but whether economic exposure is still connected to real Bitcoin or if too much "paper Bitcoin" is being formed. Custodial transparency, proof of reserves, risk management, capital structure, and counterparty risk will all become important.He expects that by 2036, Bitcoin will be more widely held, more deeply institutionalized, more politically significant, and become an important collateral asset in the digital credit market; while the foundational protocol itself may change less than everything built around it.

Michael Saylor proposed a five-layer architecture for digital assets, stating that Bitcoin will evolve into the foundation of the global financial system

This morning, Strategy founder Michael Saylor proposed the concept of "Modern Digital Asset Stack," believing that Bitcoin is not only digital capital but will also become the underlying foundation for financial products such as digital credit, digital money, digital yield, and digital equity, driving Bitcoin's evolution from a single asset to a global financial architecture.Saylor stated that Bitcoin does not require protocol modifications, staking, or issuance increases, and its volatility can be transformed into yield-generating products through capital structure. Among them, digital credit represented by STRC-type products can provide yields, while digital money can build stable value instruments with a yield of about 6%-8% by combining Bitcoin-supported credit assets with cash equivalents.He believes that in the future, stablecoins, payment networks, wallets, exchanges, and DeFi protocols can all operate based on Bitcoin-supported capital structures, providing digital capital, yield products, and stable value assets for investors with different risk preferences.Saylor emphasized that Bitcoin will still maintain a fixed supply cap of 21 million coins, and the vast majority of innovations should occur at the levels of custody, securities, credit, payment systems, and capital markets, rather than changing the Bitcoin protocol itself, stating, "Bitcoin is digital capital, and the world will build a financial system on top of Bitcoin."
