You have DOC in your @rootstock_io wallet. You’re ready to transact.
One small detail: do you have rBTC for gas?
On Rootstock, rBTC pays the network fee—even when the token you’re moving is DOC.
A tiny wallet check can save a big moment of confusion. ⛽

Bitcoin crossed $86,000 this week. That’s the obvious headline. The more interesting story is what’s being built around it.
Standard Chartered earlier this month brought institutional solana:E4Ap4icMLwKot8rkkTbq5JkS5kZxt5XCE3yfxbzYBjHx spot trading onto the same familiar electronic trading rails used by its institutional clients in the UAE. Deutsche Bank is preparing regulated Bitcoin custody for institutional and corporate clients in Europe. And Coinbase has just added fixed-rate Bitcoin-backed borrowing, alongside a variable-rate loan product that already has more than $1.4 billion outstanding.
Against that backdrop, a few points @dieguito made at the @xapobankapp Summit feel increasingly relevant.
1. Bitcoin is not only an asset. It is infrastructure.
Diego described Bitcoin as both an asset and a form of decentralized security and trust infrastructure. The bigger opportunity is not simply holding BTC, but extending that security into a broader financial system.
2. Bitcoin’s security can become economically useful beyond Bitcoin transactions.
Rootstock is merge-mined, which means activity on Rootstock generates fees for Bitcoin miners. Diego’s longer-term vision goes further: settlement networks and financial infrastructure using Bitcoin’s security, with economic value flowing back to the miners securing it.
3. Credit could be one of the biggest unlocks.
As liquidity and capital deepen, Bitcoin-backed credit can become more efficient, more programmable and easier for institutions to access. The market is already beginning to move in that direction.
4. Mass adoption may not look like “crypto adoption.”
Diego’s five-year view was what he called “fintech 2.0”: institutions and companies packaging this infrastructure into products that are simple enough for people to use without needing to understand what sits underneath them.
That may be the bigger shift to watch. Not simply how many institutions own Bitcoin. But how many start building financial products, credit markets and settlement infrastructure around it.
That’s where Bitcoin starts moving from an asset institutions hold to infrastructure they actually use.

83.96% of Bitcoin’s hashrate was securing Rootstock in Q2.
That translated to an average 809.63 EH/s of hashing power securing the network through merged mining.
Bitcoin miners can secure Rootstock alongside bitcoin:native, using the same underlying mining work.

Before mainnet. Long before BTCFi became part of the conversation, Rootstock was already bringing smart contracts to Bitcoin.
RSK is back in Europe. @Gabrielkurman our co-founder started today in London at the @keynote_fze. #SmartContracts revolution continues.🌱🙌🏼

Bitcoin’s recovery isn’t happening in a vacuum.
RootstockLabs’ Tony DiCarlo spoke to @cryptodotnews about the mix of regulatory progress, macro conditions and spot ETF demand shaping the market.
As Tony puts it: “I’m not calling winter over outright” but the backdrop for Bitcoin is changing.

Following asset movement is much easier.
The new Token Tracker lets you visually follow native RBTC and ERC-20 transfers across addresses, expand the graph across multiple hops, focus or lock addresses, and export data to CSV or JSON.
Fund flows that previously had to be pieced together address by address can now be explored in one view.

The broader goal of v3.15.0:
Less time decoding raw addresses.
Less time figuring out why a transaction failed.
Less time manually tracing where assets moved.
More context, directly in Rootstock Explorer.
v3.15.0 is live.

The next generation of bitcoin:native credit won’t come from copy-pasting TradFi.
Tommy Doyle’s (@xapobankapp) point is simple: keep the parts that work, then redesign the rest around what Bitcoin makes possible 👇

They can’t.
Rootstock’s bridge uses tamper-resistant PowHSMs, where the keys are generated and kept inside the hardware. PowPeg members cannot extract those keys or use them freely.
Even if five signatures are required, the bitcoin:native can only move when the PowHSMs receive a valid peg-out from the Rootstock chain with the required proof of work behind it.
So 5-of-9 does not mean five parties can simply decide to move the BTC.

“You can code the money.”
That’s the simplest way @aeidelman puts it.
With smart contracts, Bitcoin can do more than move value. It can power lending, smart treasuries, prediction markets, programmable insurance and more.
That’s what Rootstock is built for.
