GOAT Network achieves the first real-time proof of Bitcoin, BitVM2 testnet Beta launched

ChainCatcher news, the Bitcoin Layer 2 network GOAT Network announced the official launch of the BitVM2 testnet Beta, and achieved the first real-time proving system running in a production environment, becoming the first Bitcoin zkRollup project to support instant withdrawal initiation and full-chain visual proof.

According to reports, the system is based on a pipeline parallel architecture and a distributed GPU prover network, combined with ZKM's zkVM "Ziren", achieving three-stage parallel processing for block proof (2.6s), aggregate proof (2.7s), and Groth16 proof (approximately 10.4s), supporting real-time proving capability with a block time of 3.4 seconds, allowing users to initiate withdrawals without waiting.

GOAT Network stated that all peg-out operations have been digitized, visualized, and verifiable on-chain, and are presented in real-time through a public UI page. The current system is fully open-source, does not rely on trust assumptions, and has built a complete closed loop from BTC deposit, on-chain interaction to withdrawal. The project team believes that this capability will redefine the technical standards of Bitcoin zkRollup and lay the foundation for the practical usability of BTCFi.
