What is Ready Player One?
To accelerate ecosystem development and incentivize projects to deploy on the Bitlayer mainnet, Bitlayer is launching a series of ecosystem incentive programs– starting with the first event, Ready Player One.
The campaign is an open incentive program designed to distribute token rewards valued at over $50M to protocols and teams that deploy to the Bitlayer mainnet and demonstrate exceptional performance. Bitlayer’s growth is accelerating, and we urge strong projects to join our ecosystem to grow the protocol in exponential ways.
We encourage project teams to explore how to effectively utilize token rewards to achieve broader user adoption alongside our team at Bitlayer.
What to Expect
In addition to generous token rewards, Bitlayer commits to providing comprehensive ecosystem support for all projects, offering the following resources to builders:
- Potential investment from the foundation and institutions
- Initial liquidity support
- Comprehensive product development resources
- Mentorship and pitch opportunities from top-tier incubators
- Support from the Bitcoin community and OGs
- Ecosystem collaboration and co-creation
All teams participating in the Ready Player One program are eligible to apply for these resources. We will regularly announce a list of projects receiving Bitlayer’s support, ensuring that your innovations receive the growth and resources they deserve.
