Impacted by the Bitcoin Alpha launch, MAK surges over 50% in the last 24 hours.
BlockBeats News, July 17th, influenced by Bitcoin Alpha's upcoming listing of MetaCene (MAK), MAK saw a price surge of over 50% within 24 hours.
On July 16th, according to official sources, the Bitcoin Lightning Network task system Bitcoin Alpha will launch MetaCene (MAK) on July 18th. Eligible contributors can visit the Bitcoin Lightning Network after its launch to claim airdrops based on their Alpha points ranking. More details will be announced separately.
As the only native scaling solution and stablecoin circulation channel on the current Bitcoin mainnet, the Bitcoin Lightning Network has processed over 5 million on-chain transactions in just two months. The total value locked has exceeded $900 million, with the task system Bitcoin Alpha incentivizing users to accumulate Alpha points through participating in Bitcoin network activities.
Previously, the Trump family's crypto project WLFI integrated its stablecoin USD1 into the Lightning Network, becoming one of the first native settlement assets. According to HSBC, the Bitcoin Lightning Network has introduced UTXO Bundling and OP_CAT commands through a mainnet soft fork, supporting native asset issuance and high-frequency transaction validation, with on-chain processing efficiency improved by 1000-2000 times compared to the Bitcoin main chain.
