How decentralized is Rootstock?
Start with this: In Q1 2026, more than 84% of Bitcoin’s total hashrate contributed to securing Rootstock through merged mining.
That means Bitcoin miners can help secure Rootstock without needing extra hardware or additional computational work.
Rootstock’s decentralization is built across multiple layers:
• Bitcoin Proof-of-Work through merged mining
• The PowPeg for BTC bridging
• @RootstockColl for community-led ecosystem governance
Bitcoin security | Smart contract functionality | Decentralized by design.
Still early.
Rootstock $BTC incentives are now live on LayerBank.
Farm rewards via Merkl, with $USDRIF and $DOC as featured incentivized markets.
Also live for $RBTC and $USDT0.
