Marathon Digital Launches Anduro Network for Bitcoin Sidechains

The new platform aims to foster innovation and add revenue streams by enabling the creation of bitcoin sidechains.

Marathon Digital, a leading bitcoin miner, has unveiled Anduro, a platform designed to facilitate the development of bitcoin sidechains.
Anduro's first two sidechains, Coordinate and Alys, target the Ordinals community and Ethereum compatibility, respectively.
The initiative seeks to diversify revenue sources ahead of the bitcoin halving and enhance bitcoin's adoption.
Merge-mining technology allows miners to earn Bitcoin from Anduro sidechain transactions while mining on the bitcoin base layer.
Anduro's launch follows Marathon Digital's introduction of a bitcoin transaction submission service, Slipstream.
