Bitcoin’s scalability has long been debated - but what if there was a way to massively increase Bitcoin’s capacity without sacrificing decentralization or security? Enter Fractal Bitcoin, a cutting-edge proposal using layered blockchains and recursive proofs to enable thousands of Bitcoin-compatible layers, all anchored to the main chain.

In this video, Graham breaks down:
- Why Bitcoin needs new scaling solutions
- How Fractal Bitcoin’s layered chains and cryptographic proofs work
- Potential benefits like faster, cheaper transactions and on-chain DeFi
- Key challenges and trade-offs to consider
- How Fractal Bitcoin compares to Lightning and sidechains
- Related concepts like ZK-rollups and modular blockchains

Fractal Bitcoin is still conceptual, but it shows how innovation continues in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
