Using rBTC.

Today, +1600 rBTC are locked on RSK, a #Bitcoin sidechain.

This is growing and will grow faster in the coming months / years.

rBTC is now super cheap to use, for payments, to trade and use it on DeFi protocols.

Costs (and time)

The cost of using #rBTC vs #BTC makes it obvious for Bitcoiners to use it on a daily basis (even if you are not using #DeFi)

This is especially true as an alternative of using #BTC on #Ethereum.

With $rBTC you can lend / borrow on Sovryn, use the AMM, provide liquidity for trading, take margin trading, and also stake and earn with $SOV, a governance token.

Current exchanges

rBTC is already listed in Kukoin (where liquidity is low and withdrawal fees are a bit expensive) and @bitfinex (where withdrawal fees are very expensive).

14/20 Image
I think rBTC will be soon on Binance and the rest of the major exchanges. RBTC is a token that allows today to scale the use of BTC. Binance has already listed $RIF, soon $rBTC?

@DECRYPTO_la, Bitso, @krakenfx , @Bitstamp will follow. They are missing an opportunity.

Scaling

There are already many solutions to bring more scalability to #BTC in #RSK, such as the lumino network.

There are some brillant minds working on that, like @SDLerner

Lighting Network

Of course, for small amounts in #BTC, #LightningNetwork is used and will be used. I would love to see more interoperability between LN and RSK. 🔜

#BTC will be mainly for Hodling and settlements in the future. Only a large amount transaction will make sense to pay the costs of the fee.
