Bitlayer is a Bitcoin Layer 2 solution based on the BitVM paradigm, dedicated to becoming the computing layer of Bitcoin, providing Bitcoin-equivalent security and Turing completeness.

With the recent launch of developer airdrops and the Head Mining Festival, Bitlayer is undoubtedly the fastest-growing and most popular Bitcoin L2 ecosystem in the near term. According to the official website (https://www.bitlayer.org/), the current total value locked (TVL) on the Bitlayer chain exceeds $530 million, surpassing not only established Bitcoin L2 solutions such as Stacks and Rootstock, but also far exceeding emerging L2 projects such as BOB and B².

On June 27, the second phase of the Bitlayer Head Mining Festival officially launched on OKX Cryptopedia and will continue until July 31. This phase includes 6 ecosystem projects: GamerBoom, Macaron, Vanilla Finance, Anome, Avalon Finance, and Zearn. It is reported that in addition to providing users with $1.2 million worth of Bitlayer native token $BTR rewards, the other 6 ecosystem projects also offer users rich rewards such as points and tokens. Currently, the event is open to users (https://www.okx.com/zh-hans/web3/discover/cryptopedia/event/37).

The following will provide an inventory of important information about the second phase projects of the Bitlayer Head Mining Festival for reference.
