Bitcoin has long been recognized as a secure and valuable asset, primarily used for holding, payments, and collateral. However, with Babylon Bitcoin Staking, a new era of Bitcoin utility emerged, introducing staking and restaking opportunities that attracted significant TVL and facilitated the rise of Bitcoin-based Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs).
Pell Network aims to extend BTCFi to the cryptoeconomic security domain, fully unlocking the value and maximizing the utility of BTC with its innovative staking mechanism. BTC holders can now generate additional yields by providing cryptoeconomic security to Decentralized Validated Services (DVS) at Pell Network.
Pell Network is now extending its mission from an omnichain BTC restaking network to a DeFAI infrastructure platform. By applying to Pell’s shared security and omnichain capabilities to the domain of DeFAI, it contributes to creating a more efficient and secure environment for AI Agents.
Pell.Network repurposes LSTs and Bitcoin derivatives to extend Bitcoin’s security across decentralized applications through Decentralized Validated Services (DVSs). Users can allocate assets to these services and opt into additional slashing conditions to ensure network integrity.
Unlike traditional models, Pell.Network operates as a marketplace for developers, allowing them to attract validators using non-inflationary incentives instead of issuing new tokens. This significantly reduces the cost and complexity of securing decentralized applications.
Key Components of Pell.Network
By standardizing capital requirements across networks, Pell.Network simplifies Bitcoin restaking and expands its use as a security layer for decentralized applications.
Pell.Network employs a layered modular architecture to provide omnichain shared security across ecosystems like EVM, SVM, MoveVM, Cosmos SDK, and TVM. This structure reduces integration complexity for developers and enhances security for stakers.
The Restaking Layer consists of:
With Pell Chain’s interoperability, Operators and DVSs can manage services on a single platform, simplifying multi-chain development, lowering costs, and improving efficiency.
Restaking optimizes staked assets by allowing them to secure multiple networks simultaneously. Instead of being locked into one chain, BTC and its derivatives can back additional services like oracles, bridges, and data availability layers, strengthening security without requiring new capital.
For stakers, this means earning additional rewards on the same assets, while developers can secure applications without relying on inflationary token incentives.
The result: lower costs, better capital efficiency, and stronger security across blockchain ecosystems.
Pell.Network has secured $6.5 million in funding to develop its Bitcoin restaking infrastructure:
Currently live on testnet, Pell.Network allows users to stake BTC and participate in restaking. The upcoming mainnet launch will unlock full BTC restaking functionality, bringing decentralized operators and DVSs into production.
Future developments include:
As Pell.Network scales will establish Bitcoin as a foundational security layer for decentralized services, maximizing BTC’s utility in the evolving blockchain landscape.
P2P Validator is a world-leading non-custodial staking provider, securing over $7 billion from over 10,000 delegators/nominators across 40+ high-class networks. We have actively participated in the Babylon Chain activities since the beginning. In Phase 1 of Babylon Bitcoin Staking, we were the Top 1 Verified Staking Provider in the entire ecosystem, attracting the largest amount of BTC in delegation.

Traditional blockchains, while revolutionary in many ways, weren't built to handle these types of relationships. Their foundation just wasn’t purpose-built for the task.</p><p>This is where Story Network comes in.
