Babylon and Sui Deepen Technical Partnership, Taking Sui-Bitcoin Integration to New Heights.

Bitcoin collateralization protocol developer Babylon Labs and groundbreaking Layer1 public chain Sui (designed for scalability, security, and large-scale applications) today jointly announced that Sui will play a more significant role in Babylon's Bitcoin ecosystem. This upgrade is a further deepening of the integration since the two announced the integration of the Babylon Bitcoin collateralization protocol last year, with Sui formally becoming the Bitcoin Enhancement Network (BEN) on the Babylon protocol.

How Babylon's Bitcoin Collateralization Works on the Sui Network

Bitcoin holders can now, through the Babylon protocol, provide additional security to the Sui network while fully self-custodying their Bitcoin and simultaneously earn staking rewards. This mechanism allows Sui to leverage the collateralized Bitcoin to enhance network security, establish a convenient pathway for participants to enter the Sui ecosystem, and offer unprecedented opportunities for Bitcoin holders to participate in the DeFi space with higher security.

Fisher Yu, Chief Technology Officer of Babylon Labs, said:

"Babylon and Sui are jointly building a cross-chain utility to deepen technical infrastructure, creating more revenue opportunities for Bitcoin holders seeking a more secure DeFi entry point. As the foundational infrastructure layer for Bitcoin, Babylon safeguards the security of decentralized systems through a trustless, self-custody Bitcoin staking mechanism, unlocking Bitcoin's full utility potential. Through the Babylon Bitcoin collateralization protocol, Sui can access the world's largest and most decentralized secure network, opening up new opportunities for Bitcoin holders."

Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs, the initial development team of Sui, said:

"Our continued cooperation with Babylon Labs aims to bring Bitcoin's core advantages—scalability, security, and liquidity—into the high-performance DeFi ecosystem. Through this integration, Sui further solidifies its position as the preferred DeFi platform for Bitcoin, enabling Bitcoin holders to more efficiently utilize this asset to create value."

Through integration with Babylon, Sui introduces a new economic paradigm: scalability supported by Bitcoin. The integrated infrastructure will expand Bitcoin's liquidity and security alongside the Sui network, unlocking new applications and decentralized services secured by Bitcoin.

This integration represents a broader transformation in the blockchain industry — $1.5 trillion worth of assets (Bitcoin) have been extended to secure and empower a fast, scalable, programmable blockchain ecosystem (such as Sui). For Bitcoin holders, the Babylon Protocol programmatically enables users to autonomously convert their held assets into a foundational income-generating asset, further extending Bitcoin's utility beyond a store of value and medium of exchange, making it a more active part of the broader digital economy.

About Babylon Labs

Babylon Labs focuses on the Bitcoin security sharing protocol, aiming to build a decentralized world secured by Bitcoin. Babylon Labs' latest development, the world's first global trustless, self-custodial Bitcoin staking protocol, allows holders to stake Bitcoin directly in PoS chains, Layer2 networks, and Data Availability (DA) layers of decentralized systems, earning staking rewards without relying on third-party custody, cross-chain bridges, or wrapping services. This innovation aims to combine Bitcoin's high security and widespread adoption with the efficient scalability of PoS systems, significantly expanding Bitcoin's utility value.
