Sui has announced that the Babylon’s Bitcoin strike protocol integrates and starts working as a Bitcoin Secured Network (BSN). The integration is part of phase 3 of the Babylon expansion plan, planned to launch before the end of the year. The movement marks an important shift in how proof-of-stake networks can benefit from Bitcoin’s security and liquidity without endangering custody of funds.
With the Babylon protocol, users can participate in Bitcoin removal without transferring control to a third party or to use bridges or packed assets. With this structure, Bitcoin users can directly contribute to the security of the SII network and earn rewards without removing their money from the main chain. This integration creates an operational link between the two networks and opens the door to new decentralized applications and services that use Bitcoin and the scalability of sui.
Sui, currently arranged as seventh under proof-of-stake networks by Coingecko, accepts this model, according to a clear trend: more projects want to expand the Bitcoin utility than its role as a value storage. The aim is to channel BTC capital to programmable environments that generate yields and support other decentralized infrastructures. For Bitcoin users this is a way to activate a historically passive active one without giving up custody.
