The Bitcoin Economy Conference featured deep discussions on BitVM and its evolving implementations. Robin Linus explained how BitVM enables complex off-chain computations while preserving Bitcoin’s security. A panel with Citrea, Fiamma, Goat Network, and Strata compared different BitVM approaches. Another discussion weighed BitVM against OP_CAT, debating trade-offs in programmability and trust assumptions. The event highlighted ongoing innovation in Bitcoin scaling, bridging, and decentralized computation.
