AI agents can now make BTC payments using Bitcoin-IPC!

Watch below Claude make intra-subnet and cross-subnet payments in BTC when prompted by user. We also demonstrate funding subnet wallets from Bitcoin L1 address.

In this demo, Bitcoin-IPC subnets were anchored to Bitcoin regtest.

Our new blog (bitcoinscalinglabs.com/blog/non-custo…) overviews current options for Non-custodial BTC staking. Ideas behind three state-of-the-art systems (@babylonlabs_io @Stacks @Coredao_Org ) and market lessons from their operations. What Bitcoin-IPC learns from those lessons and how it improves on SOTA.

Our Technical Architect @OrestisAlpos explaining how AI agentic BTC payments (x.com/BTCScalingLabs…) work in Bitcoin-IPC.

How it works:

We gave an AI agent the ability to make Bitcoin payments — without ever holding a key.

It runs on the Bitcoin-IPC testnet: payments settle in seconds on an L2, and every payment trail is anchored on Bitcoin, where the owner can audit it.

Bitcoin Scaling Labs is launching a new series of blog posts to bring closer the amazing tech we are building to a wider community of Bitcoiners.

Read our first blog in the series on "Why 300 Bitcoin L2s is a failure, not a feature"

Hot take 🔥

300+ Bitcoin L2s is treated as a milestone and an evidence of thriving growth of Bitcoin scaling…

But it’s really just ecosystem fragmentation wearing the costume of growth.

These Bitcoin L2s are mostly isolated islands. Moving value between them usually means trusting new bridge intermediaries — exactly what you held Bitcoin to avoid. Or, at best, performing cumbersome operations to and from Bitcoin L1.

At Bitcoin Scaling Labs @BTCScalingLabs we’re building the opposite: the first network of sovereign Bitcoin L2s interconnected through Bitcoin L1.

Check out our latest BSL blog on the matter - "Why 300 L2s is a failure, not a feature" 👇
