Zeus Network has validated the first Bitcoin transaction on the Solana blockchain. On Dec. 12, Zeus Network achieved a historic milestone by successfully validating the first Bitcoin transaction on Solana using its infrastructure. According to a release by Zeus, this development bridges the gap between two distinct blockchain ecosystems, enabling Bitcoin transactions to leverage Solana’s fast and cost-effective infrastructure. Bitcoin ( BTC ) and Solana ( SOL ) operate on separate protocols, with Bitcoin utilizing proof-of-work and Solana combining proof-of-history with proof-of-stake. Zeus Network’s ( ZEUS ) infrastructure acts as a bridge, allowing Bitcoin to be tokenized and transacted on Solana without altering Bitcoin’s original protocol.

By that time, ZeusNode is hoping to manage approximately 2,250 BTC. Additionally, the network plans to open-source the Zeus Program Library in early 2025, encouraging developers to build applications on its infrastructure. This initiative is expected to attract decentralized application (dApp) projects, enhancing cross-chain interoperability within the ecosystem.
