BitcoinOS Launches Charms: Metaprotocol for Programmable Tokens on Bitcoin and UTXO Blockchains

BitcoinOS (BOS) has announced the launch of Charms, a groundbreaking metaprotocol designed to enable native, programmable tokens on Bitcoin and other UTXO blockchains without the need for bridges or custodians. This new protocol allows developers to create decentralized applications and smart assets directly on Bitcoin, facilitating seamless token transfers across UTXO-based chains such as Cardano, Dogecoin, and Litecoin while maintaining security and programmability. Charms transactions incorporate advanced logic and cryptographic proofs, enabling users to independently verify asset ownership without relying on centralized indexers. By introducing features like “beaming” tokens across chains and the creation of enchanted Bitcoin (xBTC), Charms aims to redefine cross-chain interoperability and unlock new possibilities for decentralized finance (DeFi) on Bitcoin, marking an evolution in the cryptocurrency landscape.
