Zeus Network has validated the first Bitcoin transaction on the Solana blockchain. 
On Dec. 12, Zeus Network achieved a historic milestone by successfully validating the first Bitcoin transaction on Solana using its infrastructure. According to a <a href="https://medium.com/@zeus-network/milestone-first-bitcoin-transaction-validated-on-solana-39784c624c23" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">release</a> by Zeus, this development bridges the gap between two distinct blockchain ecosystems, enabling Bitcoin transactions to leverage Solana’s fast and cost-effective infrastructure. 
Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank">BTC</a>) and Solana (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/solana/" target="_blank">SOL</a>) operate on separate protocols, with Bitcoin utilizing proof-of-work and Solana combining proof-of-history with proof-of-stake. Zeus Network’s (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/zeus/" target="_blank">ZEUS</a>) infrastructure acts as a bridge, allowing Bitcoin to be tokenized and transacted on Solana without altering Bitcoin’s original protocol.

Bitcoin transactions are verified, locked, and pegged to Solana’s ecosystem, creating a pathway for Bitcoin liquidity to flow into Solana-based decentralized finance applications.

Zeus Network plans to expand this integration further, according to their release. Its roadmap includes onboarding 1% of Bitcoin liquidity onto Solana by mid-2025 and incorporating other UTXO-based assets like Litecoin (<a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/price/litecoin/">LTC</a>), Dogecoin (<a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/price/dogecoin/">DOGE</a>), and Kaspa (<a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/price/kaspa/">KAS</a>).&nbsp; 
By that time, ZeusNode is hoping to manage approximately 2,250 BTC. 
Additionally, the network plans to open-source the Zeus Program Library in early 2025, encouraging developers to build applications on its infrastructure. This initiative is expected to attract decentralized application (dApp) projects, enhancing cross-chain interoperability within the ecosystem.
