Rootstock (RSK) News

Rootstock (RSK) is a smart contract platform built on top of Bitcoin as a sidechain, using merge-mining to leverage Bitcoin’s security while enabling Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. It brings DeFi, tokenization and dApp development to the Bitcoin ecosystem, with its native R-BTC token pegged 1:1 to BTC for transactions and gas fees. Rootstock positions itself as a bridge between Bitcoin’s stability and the flexibility of smart contracts, aiming to expand Bitcoin’s role beyond a store of value into a full programmable finance layer.
