Citrea Calls for Bitcoin-Native Apps in ₿app Manifesto
Citrea’s ₿app Manifesto advocates for Bitcoin-native apps that eliminate custodians and unlock BTC’s on-chain utility. It highlights infrastructure like BitVM bridges and ZK proofs enabling non-custodial, modular apps secured by Bitcoin.
Bitcoin was introduced as a liberating technology for borderless and censorship-resistant money. Yet in 2025, Bitcoin finds itself surrounded by custodians and increasingly treated as a passive store of value. The Bitcoin network is being sidelined, and its role in decentralized and censorship-resistant finance is being undermined.
