Q) What Is rBTC?
A) Rootstock’s ecosystem runs on rBTC, a 1:1 BTC-pegged token that powers transactions and smart contract execution on the network. Users can bridge BTC into Rootstock, converting it into rBTC via the PoWPeg, a secure, permissionless bridge to Bitcoin. Once on Rootstock, Bitcoin can be used in DeFi applications like LayerBank, Uniswap, and SushiSwap, allowing holders to earn yield without selling their BTC.
As of March 2025, over 2,500 BTC have been bridged into Rootstock, fueling its growing DeFi ecosystem.
