New York, Jan. 19, 2026 – Blockspace Media, a bitcoin trade publication at the intersection of markets, compute, and tech, has acquired Bitcoin Layers, an independent data provider for metrics on Bitcoin’s layer 2 (L2) ecosystem.
Blockspace will integrate Bitcoin Layers data into its content suite, which will include a forthcoming data dashboard to track the adoption and total-value-locked of various L2s. Bitcoin Layers will be the first of many Blockspace data products as the media company expands into additional offerings for stocks and other bitcoin data. Blockspace will retain Bitcoin Layers’ maintainer, Janusz, as an advisor.
“Blockspace is more than a Bitcoin publication. We’re a platform for covering the investable landscape of Bitcoin-related assets. With Bitcoin Layers in Blockspace, we’ll be working directly with investors, token foundations, and Bitcoin startups to better understand their users’ on-chain metrics,” said William Foxley, co-founder of Blockspace.
Per Bitcoin Layers data as of January 14, there are more than 361,830.29 BTC worth over $34.5 billion locked in bridging protocols, L2s, and other scaling platforms. The market is large but fragmented, with L2 serving as a catchall for various scaling solutions.
“Bitcoin Layers established itself as the premier research platform for bitcoin layer 2s and bitcoin-backed assets across chains. By integrating with Blockspace, Bitcoin Layers can now expand its data platforms to provide investors and protocol developers the ability to deeply understand user trends, while ensuring users continue to understand the architectures of the protocols they interact with,” Bitcoin Layers maintainer Janusz said.
As Blockspace expands from journalism into intelligence with this latest purchase, it will use data from Bitcoin Layers to break down the distinctions in the L2 ecosystem to make them intelligible for the average and advanced bitcoin investor alike. Blockspace plans on adding other metrics, such as Bitcoin sector equities, ETFs and other Bitcoin-related assets in the coming year to its data package.
With the acquisition, Blockspace also remains committed to staying ahead of the leading technical solutions that will scale bitcoin to a billion users and beyond. Many of the projects and technologies tracked by Bitcoin Layers have been featured at Blockspace’s technical conference, OPNEXT, the next installment of which will take place in New York on April 16, 2026.
Blockspace will continue to build on its studio project film works by expanding into data solutions and research projects. Interested companies should contact hello@blockspace.media to learn more.
