Solana on Bitcoin | Arch Network | Matt Mudano and Amine ElQaraoui

Tokensoft Season 7 Episode 13

Welcome to The Fren Zone.


This week, our host Mason sat down with Matt Mudano and Amine ElQaraoui from Arch Network. Through their novel execution environment called the ArchVM, Arch Network lets developers build directly on Bitcoin and tap into native UTXO assets—without bridging, wrapping, or compromising security.


Topics Discussed:

  • Native Bitcoin VM with hybrid UTXO model
  • Threshold multisig consensus using PROS and ROS
  • Rust-based parallel contracts with Solana-style execution
  • Atomic Bitcoin settlements via rollback and PSBTs
  • Low-latency mempool indexing and custom infra
  • Composable DeFi: DEX, lending, and order books
