Corn performance notes
Corn is an Arbitrum Orbit-based Layer 2 blockchain designed for Bitcoin-centric DeFi, utilizing Bitcorn (BTCN) as its native gas token backed 1:1 by Bitcoin through cbBTC and wBTC stablecoins. Built on the Arbitrum Orbit stack, Corn bridges Bitcoin and Ethereum, enabling Bitcoin holders to participate in yield farming, lending, and DeFi applications without selling their BTC. The network features the popCORN System for sustainable incentive alignment and LayerZero integration for seamless cross-chain transfers, unlocking over $1 trillion in Bitcoin liquidity for decentralized finance.
By combining Bitcoin-secured validation through Babylon staking with Ethereum's security, Corn provides dual-layer protection unavailable in traditional Layer 2 rollups. Corn benefits Bitcoin holders seeking yield opportunities without custodial risk, DeFi users accessing Bitcoin liquidity, and developers building BTCFi applications on familiar EVM infrastructure with support for multiple programming languages through Stylus integration.
