Welcome to choose the Bitlayer network. Next, I will show you a nanny-level tutorial~
Because Bitlayer is BTC's Layer2, it only supports BTC wallets. Currently, Bitlayer cooperates with BTC wallets such as OKX, Bitget, and Unisat. This article will take the OKX wallet as an example. If you have not created an OKX wallet, you can refer to the OKX wallet creation tutorial here: https://www.okx.com/zh-hans/help/how-do-i-create-import-an-okx-wallet
And Bitlayer is a BTC Layer2 public chain that supports the EVM chain, so after linking the BTC wallet, you also need to link a wallet that supports the EVM chain (MetaMask / OKX Wallet / Bitget Wallet / Tokenpocket / WalletConnect). If you don't have MetaMask / OKX Wallet / Bitget Wallet / Tokenpocket / WalletConnect, you need to create it. The creation process is similar to OKX Wallet, so I won’t go into details here.
So before cross-chain, you need to prepare: [BTC], [Unisat Wallet / MetaMask / OKX Wallet / Bitget Wallet / Tokenpocket / WalletConnect]
1. Open the Bitlayer official website: bitlayer.org, click [Bridge&Earn]
2. Click [Connect Wallet] to connect the wallet
4. Click [OKX Wallet],
In addition, the Bitlayer official cross-chain bridge currently only supports BTC cross-chain transactions, and will support more assets in the future.
