The Charms protocol uses recursive zero-knowledge proofs to “beam” assets between Bitcoin and Cardano trustlessly. On March 18, 2026, eBTC (Enchanted Bitcoin) landed on Cardano as a CNT. Weeks earlier, ADA, SNEK, and USDM were beamed from Cardano to Bitcoin. In this video, I break down exactly how Charms works, why Cardano’s eUTXO model was the foundation for the protocol, and what this means for Bitcoin DeFi on Cardano. Plus updates on the Pyth Oracle hackathon, Strike perpetuals launch, and Midnight’s mainnet launch week. 🔗 Links & Resources: Charms Website: https://charms.dev Charms Whitepaper: https://charms.dev/Charms-whitepaper.pdf Charms Wallet: https://wallet.charms.dev Charms Explorer: https://explorer.charms.dev Cast (Charms DEX): https://cast.charms.dev Demo Transaction Links: [link from CharmsDev thread] Pyth Network: https://www.pyth.network/ Strike Perpetuals: [link to Strike dApp] Midnight Network: https://midnight.network Unshielded Podcast: https://midnight.network/unshielded 📢 Follow the Charms Team: @CharmsDev | @imikushin | @AThrouvalas 📌 Key Takeaways: • Charms beamed real Bitcoin (eBTC) to Cardano as a native token on March 18, 2026 • ADA, SNEK, and USDM were beamed from Cardano to Bitcoin on February 28, 2026 • No bridges, no wrapping, no custodians — just recursive ZK proofs • Cardano’s eUTXO model was explicitly credited as the inspiration for the Charms protocol • Cardano natively supports BLS12-381 curve verification, enabling Charms tokens as true CNTs • Cast DEX launching for Charms trading on Bitcoin • Pyth hackathon completed with 23 teams and 100+ developers • Strike perpetuals live on Cardano with BTC trading up to 25x leve…","meta_description":"Real Bitcoin was just sent to the Cardano blockchain as a native token — no bridge, no wrapping, no custodian.
