What is Babylon?
Origins and security
David Tse and Fisher Yu founded Babylon. Babylon Genesis launched on April 10, 2025. Its CometBFT validators produce blocks using delegated BABY stakes. Bitcoin holders separately lock BTC through scripts on Bitcoin. Those stakes support finality providers without creating wrapped BTC. Finality providers use Extractable One-Time Signatures in their signing system. Bitcoin timestamps anchor checkpoints from the proof-of-stake chain. IBC supports communication with other compatible networks.
Coin functions and issuance
BABY pays network fees and supports governance voting. Delegators can back validators and receive protocol rewards. The dual-staking design also rewards qualifying Bitcoin stakes in BABY. Bitcoin staking alone does not supply BABY governance votes. Initial issuance was ten billion coins. The current published annual inflation rate is 5.5%, reduced from eight percent. Genesis issuance is consequently not a permanent maximum supply. Team, investor and advisor allocations follow monthly releases under their amended schedules.
