MatrixPort, a leading digital asset financial services platform and exSat, a breakthrough Bitcoin scalability solution, have entered into a comprehensive strategic partnership. By leveraging their respective strengths, they aim to accelerate the growth and application of the Bitcoin ecosystem, marking the start of a new era in Bitcoin development.

MatrixPort, a global one-stop digital asset financial services platform, brings extensive industry experience, robust technology, and a large user base to offer secure, convenient, and efficient digital asset trading and wealth management services. exSat Network focuses on developing unique scalability solutions for Bitcoin. Through the unique On-Chain UTXO data index, 1 second instant transaction confirmation, and secure asset custody solutions, it provides the Bitcoin network with more powerful scalability, functionality and interoperability, enabling new Bitcoin application scenarios.

This powerful collaboration plays to the advantages of both parties and brings multiple benefits to the Bitcoin ecosystem. MatrixPort's expertise and user base will support the rapid development of exSat, while exSat’s innovative technology will offer MatrixPort users more investment options and a superior experience. Together, they are committed to driving Bitcoin adoption and utility, revitalizing the Bitcoin ecosystem, and creating more value for users worldwide.

This strategic partnership will focus on the following key areas:

Unlocking Bitcoin Liquidity: Ushering in a New Era of BTCFi

Matrixport will provide nBTC on the exSat platform, a new Wrapped BTC version of the product that is 1:1 anchored with Bitcoin. They plan to provide 5,000-10,000 nBTC on the exSat mainnet to boost liquidity and support exSat’s PoW+PoS consensus mechanism.

The issuance of nBTC will become a bridge connecting Bitcoin and the exSat ecosystem, achieving seamless interoperability. Users can convert native BTC to nBTC via MatrixPort and utilize it on exSat for various BTCFi applications such as staking, lending, and trading.

The issuance of nBTC holds significant implications in a context where 94% of Bitcoin has already been mined:

Unlocking Bitcoin Liquidity: Bringing dormant Bitcoin assets into the DeFi space and injecting liquidity into the exSat platform.
Expanding Bitcoin application scenarios: Utilizing exSat as a bridge to open up broader application scenarios for Bitcoin.
Enhancing Bitcoin User Experience: Leveraging exSat's efficiency, providing Bitcoin users with more convenient, fast, and cost-effective transaction and wealth management services, promoting the popularization and utility of Bitcoin.

Empowering Innovation and Expanding the exSat Mainnet Ecosystem

MatrixPort will focus on driving the vigorous development of innovative dApp applications and services on the exSat platform, co-creating a more open, diverse and prosperous Bitcoin ecosystem.

Key areas of focus include:

BTCFi On-Chain Applications: Supporting the development of nBTC staking, trading, and lending applications on the exSat chain, offering users more diverse financial services and investment options while enhancing on-chain asset liquidity.
Real World Assets (RWA): Facilitating the tokenization of real-world assets, such as renewable energy assets, on the exSat platform, combining Bitcoin digital assets with RWAs to unlock new liquidity and value.
Cross-Chain Interoperability: Connecting exSat with the BTC ecosystem, and promoting a wider distribution of value.

This strategic collaboration will offer ecosystem developers comprehensive support, including technical guidance, marketing, and more, helping turn their innovative ideas into reality and promoting the prosperity of the exSat ecosystem. Together, MatrixPort and exSat will create more value for Bitcoin ecosystem participants, realizing the preservation and appreciation of digital assets, and ensuring sustainable, decentralized, and secure growth for Bitcoin.

Building a Secure Bitcoin Ecosystem to Protect User Assets

MatrixPort and exSat recognize that security is the cornerstone of Bitcoin ecosystem development. They will collaborate strategically to build an unbreakable on-chain security defence, safeguarding user assets.

The partnership will integrate MatrixPort's extensive security experience and exSat’s leading blockchain technology to enhance security in multiple areas:

Multi-signature Technology Application: The two parties will jointly explore and apply more decentralized multi-signature technology to provide users with safer asset management solutions and ensure the safety of user assets.
Security Specification Formulation: The two parties will jointly formulate and promote BTC asset security specifications and risk control systems, improve the security awareness and prevention capabilities of the entire ecosystem, and jointly maintain the security of users' assets.
Security Monitoring Cooperation: exSat will use Matrixport's rich security experience and resources to conduct comprehensive security risk monitoring of BTC assets issued on the exSat platform, identify potential risks and control risks in time, and ensure that the platform's security meets the highest industry standards.

MatrixPort and exSat firmly believe that a secure and reliable Bitcoin ecosystem is essential for users to participate confidently and enjoy the value and opportunities brought by Bitcoin. Together, they will continuously improve security measures, safeguard user assets, and promote the healthy growth of the Bitcoin ecosystem.

AI Won’t Tell You How to Build a Bomb—Unless You Say It’s a 'b0mB'

Remember when we thought AI security was all about sophisticated cyber-defenses and complex neural architectures?

Anthropic—which likes to rattle AI doorknobs to find vulnerabilities to later be able to counter them—found a hole it calls a “Best-of-N (BoN)” jailbreak. It works by creating variations of forbidden queries that technically mean the same thing, but are expre...
