Botanix is a decentralized EVM Layer 2 for Bitcoin using innovative Spiderchain technology to achieve Bitcoin-level security without multisig centralization. Unlike other Bitcoin L2s relying on federated bridges or trusted validators, Botanix's Spiderchain creates a decentralized network of nodes collectively securing the bridge through cryptographic coordination. This enables truly trustless smart contracts inheriting Bitcoin's security properties.

Access decentralized Bitcoin L2
A Botanix RPC node provides applications with access to an EVM Layer 2 secured by Bitcoin through Spiderchain — a novel architecture achieving decentralization without multisig trust assumptions. Botanix represents the next evolution in Bitcoin L2 design, solving the centralization problems plaguing earlier approaches while enabling full smart contract programmability.
Most Bitcoin L2s use multisig bridges controlled by small validator sets — creating centralization risks and trust assumptions. Spiderchain distributes bridge security across a decentralized network where no single entity or small group controls user funds. This maintains Bitcoin's core property: trustlessness.
Botanix advantages:
Spiderchain creates multiple smaller validator sets (called 'spiders') that coordinate through cryptographic proofs. No single spider controls user funds — instead, funds are distributed and rotated across spiders. This architecture prevents any small group from stealing assets while maintaining the security benefits of Bitcoin anchoring.
Spiderchain architecture:
Botanix enables Bitcoin DeFi without sacrificing decentralization. Deploy Solidity contracts, build DEXs, create lending protocols — all secured by Bitcoin and accessible through trustless bridges. This unlocks Bitcoin's $1.3T+ value for programmable finance while maintaining crypto's core values.
As Bitcoin L2 technology matures, Botanix's decentralization-first approach positions it as infrastructure for serious BTCFi applications.
Quick start for developers
Botanix supports all standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods:
const { ethers } = require('ethers');
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/botanix/YOUR_API_KEY');
// Verify we're on Botanix
const network = await provider.getNetwork();
console.log('Chain ID:', network.chainId); // 3636
// Get BTC balance on Botanix
const balance = await provider.getBalance('0x...');
console.log('BTC Balance:', ethers.formatEther(balance));
// Deploy DeFi protocol secured by Bitcoin
const BTCFI_PROTOCOL = '0x...';
const protocolABI = [
'function stake(uint256 amount) external',
'function getUserStake(address) view returns (uint256)'
];
const protocol = new ethers.Contract(BTCFI_PROTOCOL, protocolABI, wallet);
// Interact with decentralized Bitcoin L2
const stake = await protocol.getUserStake(userAddress);
console.log('BTC staked on decentralized L2:', ethers.formatEther(stake));from web3 import Web3
w3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider('https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/botanix/YOUR_API_KEY'))
print('Connected to Botanix:', w3.is_connected())
print('Chain ID:', w3.eth.chain_id) # 3636
print('Latest block:', w3.eth.block_number)
# Gas price in BTC
gas_price = w3.eth.gas_price
print(f'Gas price (BTC): {gas_price}')
# Get BTC balance
balance = w3.eth.get_balance('0x...')
print(f'BTC on Botanix: {balance / 1e18}')const { ethers } = require('ethers');
const provider = new ethers.WebSocketProvider('wss://rpc.crypto-chief.com/botanix/ws/YOUR_API_KEY');
// Monitor blocks
provider.on('block', async (blockNumber) => {
const block = await provider.getBlock(blockNumber);
console.log(`Botanix block ${blockNumber}: ${block.transactions.length} txs`);
});
// Monitor Spiderchain bridge activity
const BRIDGE = '0x...';
const filter = {
address: BRIDGE,
topics: [ethers.id('BridgeDeposit(address,uint256)')]
};
provider.on(filter, (log) => {
console.log('Decentralized bridge deposit:', log);
