1. Background IntroductionDeFiChain is a Bitcoin-forked blockchain project focused on decentralized finance (DeFi), founded in 2019 by Dr. Julian Hosp's team. Its core mission is to build an open DeFi ecosystem on Bitcoin's security foundation. The team includes Bitcoin Core developer U-Zyn Chua (CTO) and early Bitcoin advocate Roger Ver (Technical Advisor). The project utilizes Bitcoin's UTXO model while expanding financial functionalities, emphasizing native interoperability with the Bitcoin mainnet.2. Website Core ContentThe website features a three-column layout: left navigation includes developer docs and governance proposals; the central area displays real-time on-chain data (current block height 5,821,409) and 12 core DApps; the right announcement panel shows the latest governance votes. The "Tokenized Stocks" feature is highlighted (with restrictions for US users). The footer shows network TPS at 35 and average block time of 30 seconds.3. Technical FeaturesBitcoin Anchoring: Cross-chain atomic swaps via SPVMasternode Mechanism: Requires 200K DFI staking and KYC (1,247 active nodes currently)Custom VM: Supports DeFi-specific opcodes but prohibits smart contract loops4. Token EconomicsDual-token structure: native DFI (total supply 1.2B) and dTokens. Mining rewards account for 55%, current block reward 39.6 DFI. Staking offers 30-120 day lock periods with 23.7%-42.3% APY. Team allocation is 15% with 4-year linear vesting.5.
