Stacks' ecosystem is building many use cases beyond DeFi.

From identity with BNS and NFT collections to innovations in GameFi and AI tooling, the ecosystem is steadily growing.

More use cases mean more onchain activity and a stronger Bitcoin economy.

No matter your experience, there’s always a way to start building on Stacks and grow the Bitcoin economy.

• LearnWeb3 – A full Stacks developer track
• CodeForSTX – Earn monthly rewards for contributing
• Stacks Ascent – Grants and support for your startup

Builders welcome.

The new Stacks roadmap is focused on one thing: ecosystem growth.

Integrating a tier-1 bridge and interoperability platform like Wormhole shows what’s possible.

More top wallets, bridges, and stablecoins are coming to scale the Bitcoin economy on Stacks.

We’re excited to partner with Nansen to unlock deep onchain insights across the Stacks ecosystem.

This integration with the leading onchain analytics platform strengthens a new phase of growth.

One driven by greater visibility, accelerating momentum, and an ambitious roadmap ahead.

The Stacks ecosystem shows no signs of slowing down:

– The Nakamoto upgrade delivered fast and cheap transactions

– 5,000 sBTC reached, making Stacks the leading Bitcoin L2 by BTC supply

– A new roadmap is underway to bring tier-1 bridges, stables, wallets, and more

The coding activity on Stacks has skyrocketed in the last year.

The Code for STX and Stacks Ascent programs have helped Stacks devs consistently ship code and grow.

The Bitcoin economy is getting built faster than ever.

Stacks is gaining momentum:

-Nansen, the top analytics platform, is integrating Stacks
-Wormhole is adding Stacks support and bridging capabilities
-Onboarding campaigns like 'STX DEFI SZN' are ramping up

The new Stacks Endowment will accelerate and scale initiatives like this.

Stacks is cementing its position as the leading Bitcoin L2 with the new roadmap:

• Self-custodial upgrades for sBTC
• Earn BTC on BTC with Dual Stacking
• Programmable BTC Vaults: deposit and earn in a few clicks

The Bitcoin economy is being built on Stacks.

There’s never been a better time to build on Bitcoin with Stacks:

- devs tracks available + grants and startup support via the Ascent program

- DeFi primitives and sBTC are live; builders can experiment with BTCFi

- Tier-1 wallets, bridges, and protocol integrations are coming

Bitcoin crossed a $2T market cap, cementing its role as a top global asset.

As investors and institutions pile in, they won’t just want to hold BTC; they’ll want to use it productively.

That’s where the Stacks ecosystem comes in: the home of Bitcoin DeFi, yield, and real apps.

There’s never been a better time to build on Bitcoin with Stacks:

- Devs tracks available + grants and startup support via the Ascent program

- DeFi primitives and sBTC are live; builders can experiment with BTCFi

- Tier-1 wallets, bridges, and apps integrations on the near-term roadmap

What’s happening on Stacks lately?

• Over 2M aeUSDC have been deposited on Zest, leading to cheaper stablecoin borrowing

• Bitflow announced HODLMM, a concentrated liquidity engine to improve swap efficiency

• SIP-031 hard fork activated, kicking off a new growth phase

Code for STX is helping builders ship consistently, while Stacks Ascent supports part-time devs in launching MVPs.

These are just the first steps to bring new Bitcoin apps.

With upcoming accelerator plans and continued founder support, the next wave of apps will grow faster.

What's next for the Stacks ecosystem?

- Enhance sBTC to make it the default Bitcoin asset for DeFi
- Accelerating BTCFi development to attract more BTC liquidity
- Deliver top-tier integrations to facilitate onboarding of builders and users

The BD team is setting up the integrations needed for the next wave of ecosystem growth.

Axelar and Wormhole are upcoming, while Fordefi, BitGo, and others are already live.

Bringing top institutional-grade tools and infrastructure is how BTC capital will flow to Stacks.

Stacks is a top 20 chain for full-time dev growth in the past 2 years, up over 50%, according to the Electric Capital Developer Report.

Dev-first initiatives like CodeForSTX and Stacks Ascent are contributing to this growth by helping onboard and support builders at every level.

Work is already underway to bring the new Stacks Roadmap and SIP-031 vision to life.

The final stretch of 2025 will focus on grant programs, dual-stacking, and sBTC yield product strategy, key hires, and much more.

The next phase of Stacks' growth is already in motion.
