Bitoro to Launch Perpetual Futures ‘ZK Chain’ to Enhance Liquidity

[PRESS RELEASE – Road Town, BVI, September 4th, 2024]

Bitoro is thrilled to announce the upcoming launch of BitoroCore, a groundbreaking on-chain perpetual futures infrastructure, on the Elastic Chain, powered by ZKsync

Bitoro, a decentralized perpetual futures trading platform, today announced that they will be launching BitoroCore, a ZK Chain built on the Elastic Chain ecosystem. BitoroCore is designed specifically for perpetuals, options, and prediction markets, to enhance the liquidity hub within the Bitoro Network and work seamlessly with existing integrations, such as Orderly Network and Injective.

The unified platform is designed to offer a premier on-chain derivatives experience, with markets, liquidity, fees, and features that rival any DEX or CEX. With BitoroCore, users can tap into a cohesive ecosystem of liquidity sources across the widest selection of crypto assets and RWAs, in addition to prediction markets – all accessible via a single, intuitive interface, powered by our community and native token, $BTORO.

Moreover, BitoroCore will feature plug-and-play integrations for builders and dApps, enabling them to easily access our native liquidity. As such, it is set to significantly enrich the Bitoro ecosystem, expanding our user base and increasing our footprint within the DeFi landscape.

The Elastic Chain ecosystem is a network of fully interoperable ZK Chains all built on ZKsync technology. As a ZK Chain, users of BitoroCore will gain access to all other networks on the Elastic Chain and their respective user base. Furthermore, every application building on the Era Mainnet, the first ZK Chain, and all other ZK Chains will be able to easily integrate and leverage Bitoro’s advanced perpetual futures trading infrastructure and liquidity.

Commenting on BitoroCore, Bitoro Founder & CEO Brian Purcell says: “We’re excited to launch BitoroCore on the Elastic Chain to create what we believe will be a groundbreaking development in the on-chain derivatives space. By tapping into ZKsync’s technology, we aim to deliver a truly unique offering and further extend our presence within the DeFi ecosystem.”

“It is always exciting to see projects taking the ZK Stack technology and expanding the Elastic Chain ecosystem, and Bitoro is doing just that with the upcoming launch of BitoroCore,” said Marco Cora, Director of ZKsync Foundation. “ZKsync’s scalable and secure infrastructure provides a strong foundation for BitoroCore to offer a superior trading experience for users and developers.”

The next chapter

As part of this evolution, Bitoro will undergo a rebranding. Its decentralized trading platforms will now operate collectively as Bitoro Network. The previous distinctions – X, Pro, and Prime – will be consolidated, bringing you a seamless experience across Orderly, Injective, and BitoroCore. Through the platform’s unified interface, users will be able to switch effortlessly between these integrated ecosystems.

Bitoro is incredibly excited about these new developments and are confident they will redefine the DeFi landscape. Users can stay tuned for more updates, detailed timelines, and insights from Bitoro as the company continues to bring BitoroCore to life in the coming weeks and months.
