View ChartGOAT Network (GOATED) is a Bitcoin Layer 2 network built to deliver Bitcoin-secured execution, settlement, payments, and decentralized application infrastructure. Described as "Bitcoin-Secured Infrastructure for the Digital Economy," the project aims to provide secure, scalable infrastructure that allows AI agents, users, and institutions to collaborate, transact, and settle while preserving Bitcoin's core principles of security and self-custody. It is also positioned as a sustainable BTC revenue chain powered by decentralized sequencers using multi-currency Proof-of-Stake (PoS).
The network is powered by BitVM2, the in-house Ziren zkVM, and BTC settlement. It scales Bitcoin with a Type-1 zkEVM, enabling developers to build native DeFi applications with BTC. BTC serves as the native gas token on GOAT Network. The total and maximum supply of GOATED is fixed at 1,000,000,000 tokens, with 18 decimals. The project has already launched its token, opened Pre-TGE community access in July 2025, and unveiled tokenomics in September 2025, placing it in an active post-launch development phase.
Per the GOAT Foundation tokenomics announcement of September 24, 2025, nearly 40% of the 1 billion GOATED supply is allocated to the ecosystem's mining rewards pool, with the remaining tokens distributed across other categories. Tokenomics include mechanisms such as token burning to manage inflation and maintain value.
GOAT Network was co-founded by Kevin Liu, who serves as Co-Founder and CEO. Liu is described as an active researcher of the Token Economy, DAO, and governance protocols, and is also a co-founder of Metis. The core team includes Stephen Duan as CTO and core contributor, Prof. Redouane Elkamhi and Dr. Eric Wang as core contributors, Sophia Li as COO and core contributor, and Elena Sinelnikova as Co-Founder and Fractional COO.
The team brings deep experience from Metis, Baidu, ByteDance, and leading global pension funds. GOAT Network operates with a team of 30 across three offices: San Francisco, Toronto, and Seoul. In November 2023, the project completed a Pre-A investment round led by OKX Ventures, with participation from Crypto.com, Polygon Ventures, Amber Group, and the Metis Foundation.
GOAT Network operates as a Bitcoin Layer 2 that uses zero-knowledge proofs, decentralized sequencing, and a BitVM2-based bridge architecture to support off-chain computation with settlement and dispute mechanisms connected to Bitcoin. The network is powered by BitVM2, the Ziren zkVM, and BTC settlement. Ziren is an in-house zkVM supporting real-time proving, while the Type-1 zkEVM allows builders to create native DeFi with BTC.
The execution environment is EVM-compatible, offering smart-contract support and a programmable execution layer on top of the Bitcoin-secured architecture. Consensus is achieved through multi-currency Proof-of-Stake with decentralized sequencers, and BTC functions as the native gas token. A dedicated GOAT Network BRIDGE connects assets to the network. The project positions its operation around three pillars: payment, settlement, and trust. Payments are powered by the x402 protocol and cross-chain routing, settlement provides real BTC-denominated yield generated by network activity, and trust is established through verifiable on-chain identity via ERC-8004, with tools like Goat Scan and Bounty Market supporting inspection and automated task execution.
GOAT Network differentiates itself by combining Bitcoin security with a Type-1 zkEVM and BitVM2-based bridge architecture, allowing developers to build EVM-compatible applications while settling to Bitcoin. Its multi-currency PoS consensus with decentralized sequencers supports a sustainable BTC revenue model, where yield is generated from BTC-denominated gas fees and GOATED from protocol activity, distributed through transparent on-chain mechanisms.
The project places strong emphasis on the digital economy's three pillars. In payments, it aims to make value move like information through the x402 protocol and cross-chain routing. In settlement, it enables real BTC-denominated yield so capital does not sit idle, with rules executing automatically for both people and AI agents. In trust, every participant carries a verifiable on-chain identity through ERC-8004, while Goat Scan inspects any address or agent and Bounty Market automates task execution and settlement. This combination of Bitcoin security, EVM compatibility, and AI-agent tooling gives GOAT Network a distinct position among Bitcoin Layer 2 projects.
GOATED powers governance and enhanced staking mechanisms that support decentralized sequencer participation, helping form the consensus that secures the network. The token is used to unlock key utilities across the GOAT Network ecosystem. Its tokenomics include burning mechanisms to manage inflation and maintain value.
Beyond the token itself, the network supports a range of applications. The x402 protocol powers frictionless payments, while MPP provides payment flow integration. ERC-8004 delivers on-chain identity for verifiable identity of participants and AI agents. AgentKit offers tooling for AI-agent applications. Goat Scan allows inspection of any address or agent, and Bounty Market automates task execution and settlement. DeFi applications including Swap, Lending, and GameFi are supported through EVM-compatible tools, giving developers a robust toolchain for building with seamless interoperability across protocols.
The GOAT Network ecosystem is expanding across payments, identity, AI-agent tooling, and DeFi. Key components include the x402 protocol, MPP, ERC-8004, AgentKit, Goat Scan, and Bounty Market, alongside DeFi applications such as Swap, Lending, and GameFi supported via EVM-compatible tools. The project also maintains a developer toolchain that allows builders to leverage native EVM-compatible tools with interoperability across protocols.
Milestones reflect steady progress. In November 2023, the project completed its Pre-A round led by OKX Ventures. On April 9, 2025, The Defiant published an exploration of GOAT Network. On July 7, 2025, GOAT Network opened Pre-TGE access to the community, with the Aspecta AI BuildKey surging nearly 5x to $115M FDV. On September 24, 2025, the GOAT Foundation unveiled tokenomics for GOATED, followed by an OKX article on September 25, 2025. The network is also listed within the Canton Ecosystem.
GOAT Network does not use traditional proof-of-work mining. Instead, it relies on multi-currency Proof-of-Stake with decentralized sequencers. Nearly 40% of the 1 billion GOATED supply is allocated to the ecosystem's mining rewards pool, which distributes tokens to participants who support network operations. GOATED powers enhanced staking mechanisms that support decentralized sequencer participation, helping form the consensus that secures the network.
Participants can engage with the network by staking GOATED and contributing to decentralized sequencing. Yield on the network comes from BTC-denominated gas fees and GOATED generated by protocol activity, distributed through transparent on-chain mechanisms. This structure is designed for long-term BTC holders and institutions seeking verifiable returns from real network activity rather than hidden sources.
Security begins with self-custody. Store GOATED in a wallet where you control the private keys, and never share seed phrases or private keys with anyone. Because GOAT Network is EVM-compatible with 18 decimals, standard EVM-compatible wallets can be used to hold and manage the token. Always verify the official token contract address before interacting with any token or application.
Use official channels only. The official website is https://www.goat.network/ and the official explorer is https://explorer.goat.network/, where you can inspect addresses and token details. Goat Scan allows you to inspect any address or agent on the network, adding a layer of verification. Be cautious of phishing links, fake tokens, and unsolicited offers. For long-term holdings, consider hardware wallets and keep backups of recovery phrases in secure, offline locations. Before using any bridge or DeFi application, confirm it is an official GOAT Network component.
