Since the inception of Bitcoin, its robust security and decentralized nature have propelled its popularity. However, the sluggish transaction speed has posed a challenge to its transaction throughput. Addressing the scalability issue while upholding security and decentralization remains a focal point for industry experts. While layer2 technology can enhance scalability, existing layer2 solutions often grapple with the undesirable trait of centralization. In response, Bool Network has introduced an innovative technical solution to tackle the blockchain interoperability trilemma, addressing concerns about security, decentralization, and scalability while expanding the BTC ecosystem.

Bool Network, a decentralized and secure Bitcoin verification network, harnesses advanced cryptographic technology to elevate Bitcoin’s scalability, security, and cross-chain capabilities. Introducing a programmable second layer for Bitcoin on Bool Network aims to facilitate secure asset issuance and cross-chain experiences. The decentralized approach of Bool Network ensures scalability without altering Bitcoin’s consensus rules, employing community-driven governance to foster the rapid and secure development of Bitcoin’s second layer while enhancing interoperability.

The Bool Network framework comprises various components and layers, including the Bitcoin layer, payment channels, Dynamic Hidden Committee (DHC) layer, verification nodes, and the extension layer. These components collaborate to achieve efficient transactions. The framework introduces a decentralized signature scheme to enable arbitrary message transmission and digital asset transfers across diverse networks. The Bitcoin layer serves as the foundational layer, allowing participants to create payment channels on Bitcoin and settle transactions as needed.

Security in Bool Network is underpinned by Multi-Party Computation (MPC), Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP), and Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). The MPC-based distributed key management over Dynamic Hidden Committees (DHC) secures cross-chain messages. Each cross-chain message is approved by a corresponding DHC, controlled by a dynamic group of MPC nodes. The DHC uses a decentralized pattern to generate an off-chain cryptographic proof, ensuring the legitimacy of the message.

To safeguard the identities of DHC members, a ZKP-based algorithm, Ring Verifiable Random Function (Ring VRF) protocol, obscures the real public identification among a ring, increasing the costs of external attacks and eliminating the possibility of internal collusion. Key management procedures are executed in the TEE hardware, such as Intel SGX, ensuring the privacy and integrity of private key management.

Bool Network’s layered framework and collaborative components aim to boost Bitcoin’s transaction speed and scalability while upholding decentralization and security. This positions Bool Network as an innovative solution for the Bitcoin verification layer, injecting new vitality into the entire blockchain ecosystem.
