The latest one makes transaction activity more human-readable, search results clearer, and contract workflows smoother.
Details in the thread 🧵👇
Bitcoin doesn’t need to become something else to become more useful. That’s the idea behind @rootstock_io.
As Richard Green, VP Institutional at @RootstockLabs explains, Rootstock was built to stay close to Bitcoin: proof of work, EVM compatibility, and secured by around 80–90%
What I fear is not open oppression, but the quiet design of systems; economic and social structures engineered to extract, control, and exploit indefinitely.
These systems don’t collapse; they outliving their critics until they are no longer questioned, only accepted as norm.
Bitcoin layer-2s are entering a more serious phase.
The recent @CoinDesk piece on Botanix's shutdown raises an important question for the sector: does the market want programmable BTC for its own sake, or products that solve clear financial problems using Bitcoin?

3/4
Search is cleaner too.
Key Rootstock network addresses like the Bridge Contract, Remasc Contract, and Zero Address now appear in a dedicated Precompiled Contracts section.
So users can better distinguish network-level infrastructure from regular tokens and contracts.

For builders, the update also improves Bridge and contract workflows.
Explorer now supports peg-out fee estimation through the Bridge contract interface, and contract verification is easier to access, edit, bookmark, and share.

Using BTCFi shouldn't mean leaving Bitcoin's security behind.
Rootstock is merge-mined with $BTC, with over 84% of Bitcoin's computing power securing the network.
As institutions move beyond simply holding Bitcoin, one question gets bigger.
How can $BTC be used productively without compromising on security, transparency, or trust assumptions?
