In 2024, Bitcoin surpasses a $2 trillion market cap, marking the dawn of the "BTCFi Era." Driven by Bitcoin halving, ETF approvals, and increasing institutional holdings, BTC evolves from "digital gold" to an asset with broader financial functionalities. BTCFi involves asset allocation across time and space, endowing Bitcoin with yield-generating capabilities and liquidity. Innovations such as Bitcoin’s time locks, sidechains, and Layer 2 technologies empower BTCFi, driving Bitcoin’s adoption in lending, custody, synthetic assets, and more.
