1.The protocol must operate using a Bitcoin node and leverage the Bitcoin node architecture. This means the same node utilized for Bitcoin will also be used for the Layer 2 (L2) protocol

2.ESCROW deposits to L2 ensure that the BTC is assigned exclusively to your wallet address.

3.The protocol will not use bridges, multisigs, federations, or the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This means no wrapped BTC and no third parties are involved. Bitcoin has its own form of smart contracts, known as scripts or scripting.

4.Always verify the status of recent Bitcoin Layer 2 solutions, such as Merlin (a scam built on Polygon) and SatoshiChain (another major scam), among others. Many individuals fall for these schemes and lose their coins. Verify on their explorers whether the transactions are recorded on the Bitcoin blockchain; they must include the transaction hash.

Do not be misled—there are currently no legitimate and mainnet operational Bitcoin Layer 2 solutions.

The only protentional native Bitcoin scaling solution is BIP300(Drivechains) you can check here https://www.drivechain.info/ by @LayerTwoLabs and invented by Paul Sztorc @Truthcoin on X
