Starknet, the zero-knowledge-proof Layer-2 solution for Ethereum, is planning to roll out his Bitcoin strike function on his main network by the end of this month.
Summary
- Starknet is planning to roll out Bitcoin on his mainnet at the end of September.
- The Ethereum Layer 2 -scale solution is one of the protocols that BTC wants to tap to promote decentralized financing.
The StarkNet team says that the Bitcoin institution on September 30, 2025 will introduce to the Ethereum Layer-2 Network Minet. In the midst of the growing traction for decentralized financing on the Bitcoin network, Starknet sees the launch of BTC institution as “the last missing piece of the BTCFI campaign”.
This update follows an earlier announced in August.
Stabbed BTC and earn Strk
Starknet supports BTCFI growth on its platform with parameters such as Bitcoin deployment set on a power weight of 0.25. This means that Bitcoin will have a consensus dominance up to 25%, while the remaining 75% of the consensus power will be in STRK.

Validators and builders can use Bitcoin (BTC) delegation pools when the upgrade runs live. Once the integration with the protocol is completed, holders can start earning rewards on 30 September.
To make it out and more flexible, the platform has lowered the susceptible period from 21 days to 7 days.
Bitcoin’s Defi market
The rollout follows a management proposal that the community recently passed on in a vote with an approval of more than 93%. The unveiling of the expansion function yields a mechanism that will use Bitcoin holders to use their bitcoin on the Starknet (STRK) network, which helps network security to earn rewards.
Although the upgrade brings new Bitcoin setting to Starknet, it comes as part of supporting the protocol for various tokenized BTC activa or packed Bitcoin representations. This means that switching immediately on Starknet goes live with packed assets such as WBTC, LBTC and SOLVBTC.
The BTC deployment of Starknet contributes to initiatives per protocol such as Babylon and Stapels who want market participants to use their inactive BTC for rewards in the decentralized financial ecosystem.
According to DefillamaThe total value locked in Defi protocols on Bitcoin has risen to a new all time high above $ 8.4 billion. The TVL has risen by more than 8% in the last 24 hours, with the majority of the advantage of the restricting Protocol Babylon.
Lombard Finance, Threshold Network, Lightning Network and SOLV protocol are the other top BTCFI protocols.
