Fractal Bitcoin hits first halving at block 2,100,000 as FIP-102 goes live

Fractal Bitcoin said in its latest post that the network completed its first halving at block height 2,100,000, with proposal FIP-102 activated at the same time. The team said network nodes and indexing services remained stable after the halving. Under FIP-102, FB distribution will expand beyond the Fractal network to the Bitcoin mainnet, opening a direct path for a broader group of Bitcoin users to obtain FB. After activation, the effective block reward on the Fractal side has been reduced to 6.25 FB, while another 6.25 FB issuance budget will be redirected to the Bitcoin mainnet. The project said the change does not increase FB’s total supply. On the Fractal side, merged mining, permissionless mining, and index mining will continue to split block rewards on a 1:1:1 basis. Fractal Bitcoin added that the detailed distribution mechanism for the Bitcoin mainnet will be defined in a later proposal, FIP-103, with a target launch in the first quarter of 2027.

Citrea Mainnet Launches: Bringing Bitcoin Lending, Trading, and USD Settlement to the Network

Citrea, a Bitcoin application platform backed by Founders Fund and Galaxy Ventures, has launched its mainnet to enable lending, trading, and capital market activities directly on the Bitcoin network. Alongside the launch, it introduced ctUSD, a dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by MoonPay and powered by M0, fully backed by short-term U.S. Treasury bills and cash, and designed to comply with the upcoming GENIUS Act. With over 61% of Bitcoin (worth ~$1.2 trillion) remaining idle for more than a year, Citrea aims to activate these assets through BTC-backed lending and structured products developed with partners like Morpho, UltraYield, and Keyrock. More than 30 Bitcoin-native applications are ready to deploy, and the platform is expected to deepen institutional engagement and impact miner economics as block subsidies decline.
