Fractal Bitcoin: A New Layer for Bitcoin Scalability

Fractal Bitcoin

Launched today, Fractal Bitcoin—a much-awaited Bitcoin scaling solution supported by wallet provider Unisat—introduces a scaling mechanism based directly on the Bitcoin Core core.

The mainnet debut comes after a sequence of testing starting in July 2024 on a testnet. Claiming to be the only Bitcoin scaling solution utilizing the core code itself, Fractal Bitcoin focusing on Bitcoin-native constructions instead of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility helps it to stand out from other Bitcoin sidechains and claimed Layer 2 solutions. Moreover, this method combines the OP_CAT opcode to increase the range of use for Bitcoin.

According to the project, the network allows a 20-fold increase in capacity per layer by use of recursive layering and claims to attain block confirmation speeds of under 30 seconds. Fractal can naturally support Bitcoin systems, including BRC-20, Runes, Ordinal, and more. On the mainnet, PizzaSwap will open as a distributed exchange.

To further network security, it also includes a new mining structure known as “Cadence Mining,” which mixes merged mining with Bitcoin with permissionless mining. Leading the project as main contributors are blockchain investment and development firm Block Space Force and Bitcoin-based wallet software Unisat.

With the mainnet, the initiative has also launched its native cryptocurrency with the symbol FB, with a total quantity of 210 million tokens.
