Introduction to BRC-30 Protocol
• OKX Wallet introduces a new, open-source BRC-30 protocol that enables staking of Bitcoin and BRC-20 tokens to earn passive income.
• The protocol is open source and available for developers to build upon.
• OKX Wallet will soon add support for the BRC-30 standard according to the protocol.
OKX Supports Bitcoin Ecosystem
OKX is a long term supporter of the Bitcoin ecosystem, having integrated the Lightning Network to its centralized exchange over two years ago. Furthermore, it is the first multi-chain wallet to support BRC-20 trading with the launch of its Ordinals Marketplace, as well as viewing and transferring of Bitcoin Ordinals.
Objective Behind Introduction of BRC-30
The introduction of this protocol is driven by OKX’s goal to provide users with additional opportunities to participate in the Bitcoin ecosystem and earn passive income without actively trading. This complements other DeFi earning products already available through OKX Wallet platform.
