MAP Protocol (MAPO) is a Bitcoin layer-2 and peer-to-peer omnichain infrastructure that enhances cross-chain interoperability using light client and Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology. This means it enables different blockchain networks to interact with each other without relying on a trusted third party, maintaining a decentralized and integrated ecosystem.
MAPO, the protocol's native token, serves multiple purposes within this ecosystem. It is used to pay transaction fees, incentivize validators, and can also be staked to secure the network while earning rewards. The MAP Protocol uses light clients to verify transactions across chains, ensuring security and trustworthiness without central oversight.
For developers, MAP Protocol provides tools and APIs to build and integrate decentralized applications (dApps) that can operate across multiple blockchains, making creating versatile and powerful Web3 applications easier. The protocol aims to connect all major blockchain networks, thereby facilitating a more interconnected and efficient blockchain environment.
