The Bitcoin ecosystem has experienced a dramatic shift from silence to noise over the past two years. When the Ordinals protocol activated the imagination for asset issuance on the BTC chain, a series of infrastructure projects around Bitcoin scaling, smart contracts, and staking yields emerged one after another. Mezo is one of the projects that entered the public eye in this context. Unlike Layer 2 solutions that solely pursue technical parameter improvements, Mezo's narrative focus is more inclined toward building an economic layer serving Bitcoin holders—allowing BTC to participate in on-chain economic activities without sacrificing security.
Project Positioning and Market Performance
Mezo is a network infrastructure positioned as an economic layer for Bitcoin. Its core design logic is not to compete with Ethereum Layer 2 solutions through homogenization but to attempt to build a set of transaction settlement capabilities within the security model boundaries of the Bitcoin mainnet.
