Mintlayer Voices #2 🔊: AI Agents, Crypto, and Machine-to-Machine Payments
We're excited to share the second installment of Mintlayer Voices, written by @TriniJMG , one of our most active community members and node operators.
Jean-Marc explores how cryptocurrency is becoming the financial layer for an AI-driven world. As AI systems become more autonomous, traditional payment systems can't keep up. Banks need business days for transactions, but AI agents operate globally in milliseconds, paying for resources on demand.
The article examines how crypto enables machine-to-machine commerce through trustless transactions and instant settlement, from AI drones buying weather data to distributed networks funding their own development.
Mintlayer Voices is our community perspective series. If you want to share your analysis on Bitcoin, DeFi, regulation, or emerging tech, we're accepting contributors for future installments.

📚 Stablecoins: The Infrastructure Layer of Digital Finance
Stablecoins have quietly become one of the most important innovations in cryptocurrency, yet many people still think of them as just "dollar tokens on chain." Our latest Back to Basics guide explores what stablecoins actually are and why they're emerging as critical financial infrastructure.
The article breaks down how stablecoins maintain their peg to fiat currencies, the different types and mechanisms that power them, and why businesses are adopting them for real-world use. From cross-border payments that settle in seconds instead of days to global payroll processed in minutes, stablecoins are solving problems traditional banking can't.
We also explore how Mintlayer Web Services (MWS) is building compliant stablecoin infrastructure for enterprises, making adoption practical for B2B payments, global payroll, treasury operations, and supply chain settlement without requiring businesses to rebuild their financial systems.
Whether you're new to stablecoins or looking to understand their practical applications, this guide covers everything from fundamentals to future outlook.

🎙 Expert Interview: Stablecoins and Real-World Adoption
Rachel Ong from XT.COM shares her perspective on how stablecoins are becoming financial infrastructure rather than experimental technology. As Strategic Partnership Manager at one of the leading crypto platforms, Rachel explains why stablecoins already outperform traditional banking on speed, cost, and transparency.
The interview covers how exchanges treat stablecoins as critical infrastructure requiring stricter due diligence, why Asia's adoption is accelerating faster than other regions, and what's preventing broader business use. The technology works, but companies need clearer regulatory frameworks and integration that fits into existing workflows without requiring ten manual steps. Rachel's vision for the future includes both general-purpose chains for liquidity and specialized infrastructure for businesses needing predictable fees and compliance tools.
Her insights from the ground where adoption is actually happening offer a clear view of stablecoins' path from trading tools to payment rails.

Everything You Need to Know About ML Coin Utility ⚒️
We've been seeing questions in the channel about $ML coin utility, so we put together a comprehensive article breaking down everything you need to know.
The core utility is trustless Bitcoin interoperability through atomic swaps. ML and all MLS-01 tokens can swap directly with Bitcoin without custodians or wrapped tokens like WBTC. This means Bitcoin holders can participate in DeFi without trusting intermediaries.
Beyond atomic swaps, ML powers the entire network stack. It enables proof-of-stake consensus through staking, covers all transaction fees, handles token issuance costs on MintFun, processes NFT minting fees, and provides access to development services through RBB Lab and Mintlayer Web Services.

Bitcoin's Hidden Garage: Why Bitcoin Layer-2s Are the Sleeper Play for 2026
Mintlayer Voices #3 is here, and @therealzovictor isn't holding back.
The core argument is simple: Bitcoin without utility is just expensive mythology. Layer-2s add programmability, yield, and DeFi functionality without touching Bitcoin's base layer security.
The article walks through why Ethereum is expensive and breaks too often, why regulators actually like Bitcoin, and why Solana's speed doesn't matter when the chain goes down during peak usage. Lorenzo also covers the honest weaknesses of Bitcoin Layer-2s including low liquidity, fewer developers, and confusing user experiences that still need fixing.
This isn't hype. It's a realistic assessment of why Bitcoin Layer-2s are positioned to capture institutional capital looking for security, compliance, and actual utility. Lorenzo is a crypto investor and founder of Anavari Digital NFT, bringing a builder's perspective to the conversation.

The Reality of Wrapped Tokens 🍬
Back to Basics #6 is live, covering wrapped tokens and the trust requirements most users don't realize they're accepting.
Every wrapped Bitcoin token requires a custodian. BitGo for WBTC, Binance for BTCB, validator sets for bridge protocols. You're trusting these entities to hold your real Bitcoin, not get hacked, not freeze your funds, and give your Bitcoin back when you want it. That's the opposite of self-custody.
The article breaks down how wrapping works across different blockchains, the security and regulatory risks involved, and why even decentralized alternatives still introduce trust assumptions. Wrapped tokens were a necessary solution for Bitcoin to participate in DeFi, but they come with significant tradeoffs.
Atomic swaps change this entirely see how in our latest blog.

Looking Back at Mintlayer's 2025 🌱
As we close out 2025, we're looking back at a transformative year that saw Mintlayer transition from core infrastructure to shipping products and dApps.
This year brought three major core node releases enabling atomic swaps and preparing for mainnet features. We launched the Mintlayer JavaScript SDK in May, giving developers tools to build Bitcoin-native dApps. Mojito Wallet evolved with a complete UI refresh, HTLC support, and restored Firefox availability.
ZK Thunder Network went live on testnet in March with 1-second settlements and EVM compatibility, introducing our Layer 3 solution for ultra-fast transactions and Ethereum smart contract compatibility.
October marked a breakthrough month with public testnet launches for RioSwap (the first Bitcoin-native cross-chain DEX using atomic swaps) and MintFun (our open-source token creation platform). Both collected community feedback through bug bounty programs ahead of 2026 mainnet launches.
We introduced Mintlayer Web Services (MWS) in October as our product studio providing compliant infrastructure for builders and institutions. Interest.One launched as the first platform designed to unlock Bitcoin's dormant capital through regulated, yield-generating real-world assets. The platform connects Bitcoin holders with institutional-grade opportunities across six sectors, and secured $60 million in capital commitments in November.
An updated roadmap covering technical and strategic direction for 2026 will be shared in the coming weeks.

📖 Back to Basics #7: What Are ZK Rollups?
New article breaking down ZK Rollups and how they solve blockchain's speed and cost problems without sacrificing security.
Public blockchains are powerful and secure, but they struggle with speed when lots of people use them at once. ZK Rollups offer a solution by processing many transactions off-chain, then posting a compact summary back to the main chain with a cryptographic proof that everything is correct.
The article explains how ZK Rollups work using simple analogies, covers what "zero knowledge" actually means, and walks through why they matter for scaling blockchain applications. Instead of the base chain processing every transaction individually, many transactions share the cost of a single verification step.
ZK Rollups enable faster payments, smoother DeFi execution, and large-scale NFT and gaming activity without overwhelming the network. This is the technology behind ZK Thunder Network, Mintlayer's Layer 3 solution that offers one-second block times and full EVM compatibility while connecting back to Mintlayer.

URGENT ⚠️: Only Days Remaining - Upgrade to v1.2.0 Required
Time is running out. The mainnet hardfork is scheduled for January 20-21, 2026, and all node operators must upgrade to v1.2.0 immediately to avoid disruption.
Note: This update is just for Mintlayer Node Operators if you are not operating a node no action is needed.
What's changing after the fork:
• Transactions that fill or conclude orders will require additional information (initial and current balances)
• Pool decommissioning transactions will need current staker balance data
• Token issuance transactions may generate new token IDs differently
📢 Important Notes:
• Avoid creating order fills, pool decommissions, or token issuance transactions near the fork height
• Simple transfers and most other transactions will not be affected
• Full node resync and API server resync will occur after the upgrade
📖 Full upgrade guide and technical details

Mintlayer Strategic Roadmap 🛣: 2026 and Onward
Today we're releasing our most comprehensive roadmap to date, outlining a multi-year development and expansion plan that positions Mintlayer at the forefront of Bitcoin institutional infrastructure.
2026 marks a pivotal year. Q1 alone delivers three major mainnet launches: ZKThunder Mintlayer's high-performance ZK-Rollup Layer 3, our decentralized exchange RioSwap, and EVM Fast Bridge. These are followed by the rollout of Mintlayer Web Services across the United States, North America and Asia, the launch of institutional grade funds through Interest.One, a complete Mojito Wallet 2.0 release, and a full ML tokenomics upgrade with expanded utility and incentive structures.
2027 builds on this momentum with fund launches for Interest.One across different diverse sectors alongside continued protocol enhancements. Fiat integration and hardware development bring Mintlayer's infrastructure closer to mainstream institutional adoption.
The ML coin sits at the center of everything we're building. As infrastructure scales and institutional adoption grows, token utility expands with it. Every product, every partnership, and every expansion ties back to the ML coin. As we execute on this roadmap, the value proposition for long-term participants only strengthens.
Our goal is to build the institutional infrastructure layer for the future of finance.
Explore the full roadmap and see what's ahead.
