🙌 “#Layer 2 solutions can resolve #Bitcoin’s scalability issues. It’s a move towards a more fast-paced crypto landscape.” - @VitalikButerin 🔥

Is he talking about #Rootstock? Listen to the whole talk here: https://twitter.com/udiWertheimer/status/1676998397092298773


✌ As a Layer 2, Rootstock directly inherits the security of the #Bitcoin network. Rootstock can be optimized for DeFi and scalable solutions whilst Bitcoin does the heavy lifting securing the network.

🥇On the flip side, Bitcoin's security isn't compromised as Rootstock scales its usability — it’s a win-win.

🏗️ By adding smart contract functionality, Rootstock launches #Bitcoin from just a store of value to a vibrant ecosystem that can power a wide array of DeFi applications.

🚀 Transacting on the #Rootstock network also significantly enhances transaction speed — offering scalability that's crucial for the real-world adoption of Bitcoin.

🌱 Rootstock is also energy efficient. It leverages Bitcoin's existing infrastructure through merged mining — helping to drive sustainability in the blockchain ecosystem

🙌 So, what do you think? Is Vitalik hinting that solutions like Rootstock are the future for Bitcoin? Join the Rootstock community on Discord to see what comes next 🚀
