# Bit Evolution

From Oasis Sapphire to Omni-Chain

Bit Protocol began as a single-chain CDP on Sapphire, pioneering overcollateralized borrowing with a laser focus on multiple assets acceptance

> Bit was battle tested with over 4M in TVL in the protocol, and the most important milestone, achieving the minting of $ 1.5M in $BitUSD backed by 3 different nature of assets ( RWA, LST and Native tokens)

BIT has redefined its architecture, vision, and product after extensive user feedback, brainstorming on EVM scalability, and 1.5 years of closed-door development with key integrations, becoming a new DeFi omni-chain native primitive&#x20;

This shift wasn’t just technical—it was philosophical.&#x20;

* **For Users:** Ability to **b**orrow against your assets that sit iddle in your wallet while accessing capital.
* **For Chains:** Bit Protocol isn’t just an new integration—it’s a growth hack. Chains gain a TVL magnet, as it can accept as collateral almost any project token in the chain, RWA, LST/RST and their native tokens
* **For DeFi:** $BitUSD becomes the cross-chain "liquidity glue," stabilizing yields and enabling complex strategies across ecosystems.
