Merlin Chain Integrates Nubit DA, Enables User Access To Data Through Its Alpha Devnet
In Brief
Merlin Chain launches on the development test network Alpha Devnet with Nubit data availability underneath.
Bitcoin Layer 2 solution Merlin Chain announced its launch on the development test network Alpha Devnet with Nubit data availability (DA) underneath. This integration allows users to access relevant data through the development network.
Nubit is a Bitcoin-native DA layer secured by Bitcoin that maintains trust minimization principles. It allows for the scaling of Bitcoin’s data capacities, enabling various applications such as Ordinals, Layer 2 solutions, and price oracles. This broadens the scope and efficiency of the Bitcoin ecosystem, supporting its growth and development.
DA refers to the capacity to access all transaction data for verification within a decentralized network. It ensures that every transaction contained within a block is accessible to every participant in the network.
Nubit and Merlin Chain entered into a partnership aimed at combining Merlin Chain with Nubit’s Bitcoin-native data availability (DA) solution in March. This collaboration seeks to unlock the potential of Bitcoin by synergizing Merlin Chain with Nubit’s Bitcoin native DA solution to unlock the potential of Bitcoin with the native Layer 1 assets, users, and protocols.
