The Bitcoin L2 interoperability war pits BitVM's fraud-proof arbitration against Lightning Network's liquidity issues. BitVM's arbitration costs ~$120,000 due to complex on-chain verification, making it expensive for dispute resolution. Conversely, Lightning Network faces a 38% channel liquidity shortage rate, limiting transaction capacity. BitVM offers Turing-complete flexibility but high costs, while Lightning excels in fast, low-cost payments but struggles with liquidity. Both aim to scale Bitcoin, yet their trade-offs—cost vs. liquidity—highlight distinct challenges in achieving seamless L2 interoperability.
