# Why choose Plan B?

Plan B is the natural evolution of the Bitcoin ecosystem. It gives Bitcoin the chance to be utilized in smart contracts, as well as unlocking the potential for yield on top of Bitcoin’s store of value proposition. The main features of Plan B include being a Bitcoin centric EVM composable chain. This allows any developers with dApps working on any EVM environment to easily deploy contracts on Plan B.\
\
Being Bitcoin centric, Plan B will utilize Bitcoin as gas, and allow for easy bridging directly from Bitcoin. Bitcoin restaking via Suzaku will secure the chain.

**Everyone can use Plan B:**

* Holders
  * Bitcoin holders can put their Bitcoin to work. As they stake their Bitcoin to secure other chains, Bitcoin holders accumulate yield they would otherwise not have from just holding. This will increase their Bitcoin stack at a faster rate. All this while supporting the broader crypto ecosystem.
* Miners
  * New miners now can enter the industry with much lower barriers to entry. Additionally, current miners can utilize our infrastructure partners to manage Bitcoin mining. This means they can spend less time and money on infrastructure and more time on building their market strategies.
* DeFi Users
  * A new frontier awaits DeFi users on Plan B. Users can borrow/lend, trade yield/volatility, trade, restake, trade vested tokens and more on Plan B. We are always excited to hear about new and promising use cases.
* Builders
  * Builders will appreciate that Plan B is fully permissionless EVM compatible chain. This means that they can write with Solidity and bring over any dApps they have already created on the EVM.
