Babylon has raised $96 million in three years, gathering top investment institutions such as Binance Lab, Polychain, OKX Ventures, and ABCDE Capital.
Every time the staking quota is opened, it is quickly snatched up by BTC whales, which has preliminarily verified the market's recognition of Babylon.
Now, Babylon has launched the third phase of staking, lasting for 1000 block times, approximately one week, with a minimum stake of 0.005 BTC, around $500.
This time, it is clearly providing an opportunity for ordinary users to participate, unlike previous rounds that only allowed institutions and whales to rush in first. Therefore, we ordinary users cannot miss this opportunity. Babylon is bound to be the largest player in the BTC ecosystem by 2025.
Why is Babylon definitely a major player?
Babylon can be compared to Eigenlayer, but Babylon's ceiling may even exceed that of Eigenlayer.
Like Eigenlayer, Babylon is focused on shared security, but Babylon combines Bitcoin's native technology, allowing Bitcoin holders to lock their Bitcoin in a self-custodial manner, without a third-party bridge.
Eigenlayer shares Ethereum's security, while Babylon shares Bitcoin's security. Currently, Ethereum's market cap is about one-third of Bitcoin's market cap, so the security that can be released may also be lower than Bitcoin's, thus presenting a very large market space.
The emergence of Babylon is timely, as it is addressing another important question: how to turn Bitcoin into an income-generating asset?
In traditional financial markets, income-generating assets account for over 90% of total assets, which highlights the importance of income-generating assets in the financial market.
For example, Ethereum transitioned from a PoW mechanism to a PoS mechanism, and due to the staking scenario, Ether can earn staking rewards, turning it into an income-generating asset. This has spurred a series of financial innovations in the Ethereum ecosystem, such as liquid staking, re-staking, and liquidity re-staking, attracting more liquidity into this ecosystem and creating a strong wealth effect.
The Bitcoin ecosystem also needs such income-generating assets as underlying assets to foster new gameplay and accelerate the revitalization of the ecosystem. The Bitcoin ecosystem is like a forgotten ancient continent, filled with untapped virgin land, with more potential waiting to be discovered.
At this moment, this ancient continent needs a Tower of Babel to unite the Bitcoin ecosystem and connect it with other ecosystems, to shine with the miracles and brilliance of the crypto world.
