Build Apps on the Bitcoin Blockchain with Catenis

There is a big myth that many people in the crypto and blockchain industry believe, which is, it’s impossible to build apps on the Bitcoin Blockchain. Not only is this belief false, but in this quick article, I will prove to you, and I will show you how you can build or integrate apps on the Bitcoin Blockchain for FREE! While using drag-and-drop tools! No, this is not a joke, and yes, you really can do it for free.

Why is this such a big deal, and what makes building/integrating with the Bitcoin Blockchain so important?

It is TRULY Decentralized — This might surprise a few people, but the majority of the blockchains are not truly decentralized; the Bitcoin Blockchain is.

It is a peer-to-peer-based network — That provides a robust A distributed application architecture for corporations.

It offers military-grade security — The Bitcoin Blockchain is the most secure blockchain, proven across 12 plus years, and it secures over 1 trillion dollars of people’s assets.

With lower fees — Using Catenis’ 2nd layer protocol to build/integrate with the Bitcoin Blockchain, transactions cost cents. Whereas, using Ethereum, or alternative blockchains, you are paying hundreds of dollars per transaction.

Let’s go back in time, in 2016 when we first created our premier product, Catenis. Catenis was just supposed to send simple messages across the peer-to-peer network from one app to another. However, over the last five years, Catenis has become a powerhouse with its blockchain-building capabilities!

There are a host of things that you can do with Catenis, which are applicable across many industries. Examples include: Log content of any type or size to the Bitcoin blockchain, send p2p content of any type or size, issue tokens (fungible & NFTs), export these assets (tokens) to different blockchains, integrate your WordPress website with the Bitcoin Blockchain, and much more, all with low-code drag-and-drop tools.

Fast forward to 2021, our newest feature, Free Catenis Accounts! You can now get a Catenis Account for free and start building right away! We want you to be the judge and experience the power of Catenis for yourself. This account includes the complete platform features set and lets you build or integrate applications with the Bitcoin blockchain at no charge, using the Bitcoin TestNet. After you build, test, and get it right, you can easily move your project to Bitcoin’s production blockchain.

Here is an excerpt right from our documentation:

“Catenis provides interface services for a new class of solutions built using the premier blockchain technology, the Bitcoin blockchain. Catenis supports cross-platform integration and the rapid enablement of secure peer messages, immutable content logging, smart contracts, and the creation and transmission of fungible and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). This technology allows your enterprise to build/integrate applications with the Bitcoin blockchain quickly. Even better, with low-code tools, this can all be achieved without hiring a team of engineers, reducing costs and time to market versus all other existing technologies.”
