Persistence One aims to become the gateway for Bitcoin Interoperability, powered by Intents, secured by Bitcoin. The solution ensures seamless movement of BTC with fast, zero slippage, cross-chain swaps.

To make Bitcoin DeFi scalable, we must overcome fragmentation. That's where interoperability comes in. Persistence One’s vision is to become the gateway for Bitcoin ecosystem swaps and a cornerstone hub for all BTC variants.

Persistence One's interoperability solution enables direct cross-chain swaps without traditional bridges, reducing complexity and security risks by eliminating the need for building liquidity pools. Powered by intents, it offers a seamless and efficient way to transfer BTC variants between chains.

Interoperability enhances BTCfi by enabling cross-chain swaps of Bitcoin variants across Bitcoin L2s and sidechains. It supports BTCfi adoption, connects the Bitcoin ecosystem, makes DeFi more accessible, improves user experience, and ensures efficient and secure asset transfers.

"Intents" in cross-chain swaps refer to pre-specified transaction conditions that enable users to define their desired outcomes. These intents are matched and executed across different chains, facilitating efficient and secure swaps without the need for traditional bridges or liquidity pools.

Persistence DEX, earlier known as Dexter, is a decentralized exchange for trading BTC and Liquid Staked Tokens (LSTs).

Persistence One will utilise Bitcoin's economic security by collaborating with Babylon Chain. Bitcoin's shared economic security will be the most reliable way to safeguard PoS chains without inflating the native token.

You can use Squid Router or Ibc.fun to bridge your XPRT to Base or other ecosystems.

XPRT stakers can submit new proposals, vote on proposals, suggest parameter changes (like transaction fees or staking requirements), govern the launch of new pools or incentives on the Persistence DEX, and, in the future, govern the XPRT interoperability solution decisions.
