BitcoinOS (BOS) has officially launched its $BOS token with a fully diluted valuation of $200 million, marking a significant step in advancing institutional Bitcoin finance (BTCFi). Trading is now live on multiple top-tier platforms, including Binance Alpha, Kucoin, Gate, Kraken US, Bitget, MEXC, and PancakeSwap DEX. The token is available as an ERC-20 on EVM chains and as a CNT on Cardano, enhancing cross-chain interoperability.
The $BOS token serves as the incentive layer for the BOS network, ensuring security, performance, and decentralization through zero-knowledge proof technology. It enables computation and verification on Bitcoin without modifying its base protocol, while a specialized node network handles tasks like generating ZK proofs, monitoring for fraud, and submitting challenge transactions to Bitcoin.
A key feature is the buy-and-burn mechanism, which creates deflationary pressure by using BTC to purchase and burn $BOS tokens as network activity increases. This rewards holders with BTC-denominated returns and aims to unlock $2.2 trillion in Bitcoin liquidity across ecosystems. Since inception, BOS has integrated with projects like Cardano, Litecoin, Arbitrum, Mode Network, RISC Zero, Merlin Chain, and Nubit.
The total token supply is 21 billion, symbolically referencing Bitcoin's supply, with 3% allocated to pre-sale and airdrop campaigns. Pre-sale participants and early supporters from Cardano and EVM ecosystems can claim tokens as trading begins. Innovations include bridgeless cross-chain asset transfers, the Charms protocol for programmable tokens on Bitcoin, and Grail Pro for institutional BTC yield generation with self-custody.
