reply So, building with Bitcoin doesn't have to mean simply moving BTC somewhere else.
It can mean building applications that understand Bitcoin and can work with its state.
That's the idea behind Hemi:
Bitcoin awareness + EVM programmability.
And that's where a different class of Bitcoin applications can start to emerge.

reply Then there's the Hemi Bitcoin Kit (hBK).
hBK abstracts the lower-level complexity of interacting with the hVM's Bitcoin functionality.
For developers, that means they can build Bitcoin-aware applications while working with familiar EVM and Solidity development patterns.

reply Hemi approaches this by bringing Bitcoin awareness into the EVM.
At the core is the Hemi Virtual Machine (hVM), an EVM with an embedded, indexed Bitcoin node.
This allows smart contracts on Hemi to access Bitcoin data directly through the hVM.
