Citrea's BitVM-Based Bitcoin Bridge - Clementine's Latest Design
About a year ago, Citrea proposed one of the first Bitcoin bridge designs using BitVM. Citrea's native Bitcoin bridge, named Clementine, enables Citrea to inherit validity from Bitcoin, therefore the safest and most trust-minimized way to use BTC in decentralized finance. Clementine ensures the validity of state transitions on Citrea by optimistically verifying zero-knowledge proofs on Bitcoin. In addition to verifying these state transitions, Clementine also manages peg-ins and peg-outs to Citrea in a trust-minimized manner.
