We’re excited to announce that Chainstack now supports the B² Network, a zero-knowledge rollup Layer 2 built on Bitcoin—bringing zk verification commitments, Ethereum compatibility, and novel challenge mechanisms to the world’s most secure blockchain.

With this integration, developers can now explore the frontier of Bitcoin-based rollups using Chainstack’s scalable, test-friendly infrastructure.

Why build on B²?

is a practical Bitcoin Layer 2 network, purpose-built to bring smart contract programmability and rollup efficiency to Bitcoin. Key features include:

  • ZK verification commitments on Bitcoin: A novel commitment system using Taproot, enabling fraud-proof–driven challenge mechanisms.
  • EVM compatibility: Deploy Ethereum-style smart contracts and dApps using both Bitcoin and Ethereum address formats.
  • Low cost, fast, and trust-minimized: Rollup efficiency meets Bitcoin-level security for scalable DeFi and infrastructure.

B² is the first zk-powered Bitcoin rollup to introduce a full challenge-based trust system, combining the best of Ethereum’s L2 architecture with Bitcoin-native design.

Build better with B² on Chainstack

Running B² nodes is now zk-native and protocol-flexible with Chainstack. Whether you’re verifying rollup proofs, running fraud challenge simulations, or testing Bitcoin-compatible smart contracts, Chainstack offers:

  • Dedicated B² RPC infrastructure for zero-knowledge rollup experimentation
  • Transparent flat-rate pricing—ideal for test-heavy cycles and low-overhead builds
  • Cloud-deployable anywhere with deep regional support for performance tuning
