Marathon Digital, one of the leading crypto mining companies in the world, is advancing this development via Anduro, a new multi-chain layer-2 network on Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoindogs.club\/?utm_source=media&amp;utm_medium=artc&amp;utm_campaign=coinjournal&amp;utm_term=internal&amp;utm_content=current_news\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Bitcoin Dogs<\/a>, a new crypto project for GameFi and NFTs, has attracted remarkable interest after it launched the first-ever ICO on the Bitcoin blockchain.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Marathon Digital unveils first sidechains of new Bitcoin layer-2 network<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to Marathon Digital, while Bitcoin\u2019s strengths as a network would be appealing to any developer, its current functionality may not. The company points to the challenge developers may face in relation to scalability.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Anduro is a new programmable layer-2 network on the OG blockchain network that Marathon says will both serve as an application layer and help strengthen Bitcoin\u2019s proof-of-work network.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The company unveiled the first two sidechains for this multi-chain layer-2 network \u2013 Coordinate and Alys. Coordinate offers a more cost-effective UTXO stack for Ordinals, while Alys is an Ethereum-compatible platform for asset tokenization.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fred Thiel, Marathon\u2019s Chairman and CEO, commented that Anduro has the potential to extend Bitcoin\u2019s functionality and adoption. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201c<em>We believe in testing, iterating, and letting the market decide what ideas succeed. We believe Anduro is one of those ideas that provides value to Bitcoin holders and application developers, all while reinforcing the long-run sustainability of Bitcoin\u2019s Proof-of-Work<\/em>,\u201d Thiel added in a <a href=\"https:\/\/ir.mara.com\/news-events\/press-releases\/detail\/1344\/marathon-digital-holdings-introduces-anduro-a-new\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>press release<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Last week, TRON founder Justin Sun revealed plans for an L2, outlining a roadmap he noted would help bring DeFi, NFTs and gaming to the Bitcoin ecosystem.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Bitcoin Dogs: Gaming and NFT platform on Bitcoin<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Marathon revealed the first two sidechains on Anduro on Thursday, noting they are under development. The news coincided with the Bitcoin (BTC) spike to $64k.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Meanwhile, there was also a big move for new project Bitcoin Dogs ($0DOG) as its presale surpassed $5.4 million.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Bitcoin Dogs is a new project that offers a new game and digital collectibles platform on Bitcoin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">While it brings man\u2019s best friend into the virtual world, the ultimate ecosystem will consist of 10,000 unique and rare NFTs on Ordinals, a play-to-earn game and a vibrant community that shares in the fun and investment opportunity of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Bitcoin Dogs\u2019 roadmap includes the beta launch for the game, debut of NFT collection and P2E partnerships in Q2, 2024. Further developments, including Bitcoin Dogs game launch, metaverse and multi-chain bridge support are scheduled for Q3, 2024.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Bitcoin Dogs presale opportunity<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">$0DOG, the native utility and governance token of the Bitcoin Dogs ecosystem, is a BRC-20 token.
