Bitcoin's Next Chapter - TOKEN2049 Dubai 2025
Explore the future of Bitcoin in the exciting panel discussion, "Bitcoin's Next Chapter - TOKEN2049 Dubai 2025." Join Samantha, founder of Yap Global, as she leads a conversation with experts Manib, founder of STAX, and Orun, co-founder of Citrias, on the transformative developments shaping Bitcoin's landscape. With a focus on Layer 2 (L2) solutions, this session delves into how innovations like STAX and Citrias are poised to evolve Bitcoin beyond its identity as "digital gold."
Discover why Bitcoin's simplicity, often seen as a limitation, is its strength and how this characteristic is driving a new wave of L2 experimentation. Manib highlights the critical need for L2s on Bitcoin more than on Ethereum, which has an in-built programmability. By enabling L2s, Bitcoin is unlocking new functionalities and utility, positioning itself as a modern and versatile asset within the Web3 framework.
Orun shares insights into Citrias' pioneering work, including creating more user-friendly experiences and enhancing security through innovative tools like face ID transaction signing. Both experts emphasize the role of education and community engagement in shifting perceptions, advocating for a culture that not only holds Bitcoin but uses it actively in daily life.
The speakers predict a future where decentralized finance (DeFi) on Bitcoin overtakes traditional ETFs in terms of Bitcoin's economic participation. With a potential revival of Bitcoin payments on the horizon, this panel suggests a transformative path ahead, as Bitcoin grows to meet global demands while staying true to its core ethos.
