₿m! Some BVS ideas and areas as food for thought:

  1. Bitcoin native DEX - DEX that enables users to trade ordinals/runes/BRC20s from their wallet that settles directly onto Bitcoin L1 (restaked collateral used as insurance fund for correct settlement)
  2. Blockless DA layer - migrate EigenDA architecture to SatLayer/Babylon’s stack
  3. BTC-native Bridge - bridging between different BTC L2s/sidechains and/or bridging in/out of BTC, with bridge solvency guaranteed by restaked collateral
  4. Coprocessor - Liveness network able to take in different computation tasks and return the result asynchronously. Settlement can be zk, optimistic, or based on consensus. VM can also vary - EVM, WASM, RISC, etc. Different BVSes can explore different parts of the (settlement, VM) state space
  5. Decentralized indexer - ordinals/runes/brc20 indexer with data accuracy guaranteed by consensus or fraud proof mechanism
  6. Lending - using restaked collateral as an insurance fund/lender of last resort
    1. Liquidator bot - pool of collateral/decentralized liquid fund
  7. Lagrange state committee - Implementation of the Lagrange state committee AVS on Bitcoin (Bitcoin state committee)
  8. Oracle service - nodes slashable for incorrect or outlier data feeds
  9. pump.fun-related, coordination layer for making memecoin trading safer
  10. Proof of BTC reserves/liquidity + insurance market
  11. Prediction market BVS - using shared security & slashing to ensure validity of outcome, additional yield for deployed principal, leveraged prediction markets
  12. Restaked rollup - leveraging **AltLayer
    1. RaaS - settlement layer which can be used to spin up rollups that settle on top (similar to DyMension architecture)
  13. Shared sequencer - shared sequencer for BTC L2s with liveness/fairness guarantees backed by restaked btc collateral and enables cross-chain atomicity
  14. ZK proof verification layer - verify zero-knowledge proofs on middleware BVS, secured with restaked btc collateral, similar to AlignedLayer
