Bitcoin is so much more than a store of value; it is infrastructure for a new digital frontier. @Stacks @hirosystems hiro.so/blog/exploring…

I spoke with @renapshah of @Stacks about #bitcoin price volatility in the latest episode of Deep Dive Podcast. 👇 We discuss how altcoins typically mirror Bitcoin's volatility, but what caught our attention is the lack of Bitcoin outflows on the Stacks network. Despite Bitcoin's price fluctuations, the approximately 4,000-4,300 BTC locked in the L2 network for staking and DeFi remained stable, with no significant mass withdrawals. We explore why users recognize Bitcoin as superior collateral and are willing to take measured risks, trusting that price volatility will eventually recover over time.

@grant_nissly I like the view in STX tokens

Stacks TVL is holding up well in this downturn

@marshallmixing @Stacks Thx for your consistent dedication and everything you've contributed to Stacks over the years, you rock!

Today is my last day at Stacks Labs. After more than 3 years working in @Stacks at Trust Machines (Leather + Granite) and Stacks Labs, I found out this morning that my position, along with 14 others, is being impacted. Here's what's not changing: 1. My connection with all the community members that I have crossed paths with. I've made so many friends in the Bitcoin, Ordinals, and Stacks communities over the years. People say it all the time, but the community in Stacks is absolute top tier. Everyone is mission-driven and truly aligns with Bitcoin's principles. I hope they never lose that and never stop advocating for what's right. It's been a privilege to represent the Stacks community in my role. 2. My focus on Bitcoin. In my 5+ years working in crypto, every position I've held has been a stepping stone toward a role that aligns closer with Bitcoin's fundamentals. I'm looking forward to continuing that trajectory in my next role. If you have a connection, my DMs are open. 3. Good For Bitcoin will continue. I'm excited to continue co-hosting the show alongside Kate. GFB has been a fantastic way for the both of us to keep a pulse on what's going on in the industry. Tomorrow's show will be a good one.

Stacks has distributed over 3,700+ BTC to users stacking $STX. @Stacks has been running ~10% APY BTC rewards through its Stacking mechanism (lock STX, earn BTC) for 130 cycles, and now they're heading into something bigger. They're building the first Self-Custodial Bitcoin Staking infrastructure: You hold your BTC, earn yield in BTC. The more STX you commit to staking, the higher your BTC yield. This way, STX becomes the access pass to BTC yield without giving up custody. The first clear demand driver for the asset that actually ties back to Bitcoin. There's no need to "wait for traction" cause it's already there: → $500M+ sBTC TVL at ATH → Near ATH monthly transactions → February 2026 hit the highest new accounts since 2023 → Ecosystem apps like Bitflow, Zest, and Hermetica are actively building on top of Stacks Full breakdown coming this week. Disclosure: I’m holding $STX

@bitflow LFG, congrats! 🟧🌊

HODLMM: Concentrated Liquidity Comes to Bitcoin The first institution-grade market maker tooling purpose-built with Bitcoin finality to support the expanding on-chain BTC economy. HODLMM is LIVE. 🧵👇

@ZestProtocol Woot woot! 🙌

Zest Protocol Stacks market v2 is live🍊

Bitcoin has over $1T in market value, and very little of it is operational. @Stacks is building the infrastructure to change that securely and natively Here’s what has changed recently

@muneeb LFG

Markets are puking, and morale is low here; this is when next-gen winners get built. I’m not going anywhere. Why? Because the job is not done. We’ll create the Bitcoin on-chain economy for a billion users. Stacks is focused on the new Bitcoin staking product. More details soon!

Huge unlock for Bitcoin DeFi! 🟧🚀 Fireblocks is the most heavily used platform for institutional on-chain investing; BTC-denominated yield (sans custody tradeoffs), lending, and execution on trusted and proven institutional rails. 💪

@Stacks @FireblocksHQ Institutional BTCFi 🔥

1/ Fireblocks, the enterprise platform securing more than $5 trillion in digital asset transfers annually, is integrating with Stacks. @FireblocksHQ 2400+ clients will soon be able to access a wide range of Bitcoin DeFi products. More below.

New year, same goal: Put your BTC to work 💪 While we reflect on all the launches in 2025 (Dual Stacking, USDCx, and sBTC uncap to name a few!) we also can't wait for everything to come in 2026. Happy New Year, Stackers! 🎊

The next wave of Bitcoin adoption won’t come from price. It will come from builders creating apps, markets, and new financial layers on top of it. Leading Bitcoin layer @Stacks makes that possible.

Wallet, connected ✅ We're thrilled to announce Stacks integration with @WalletConnect to unlock Bitcoin DeFi and BTC yield for millions of users worldwide.

INTRODUCING: A better way to stack sats. Dual Stacking launches today—an innovative and sustainable form of bitcoin-denominated rewards that are only possible on Stacks. No points. No nonsense. Just Bitcoin earning Bitcoin.

Grayscale, the world's largest digital asset-focused investment platform, today announced that the @Grayscale Stacks Trust (the “Trust”) has begun trading on OTCQB. The public quotation reflects Grayscale’s product progression process to move private offerings to public vehicles and, ultimately, ETPs. This approach ensures investors can participate in the next generation of protocols via publicly traded products. Stacks is establishing itself as Bitcoin’s leading liquidity layer.

We're aware that there is a Leather Wallet impersonator (leather-wallet.io) out there, and we are working to get it taken down. As a reminder, our official site is leather.io Leather will NEVER ask you for your keys. Stay safe out there

Finally developer data resembling reality. Ethereum is leading, but solana is close. Polygon is #4 right after ETH SOL and BTC. Should be counted inside ethereum but that’s not the point. Insane adoption, kudos to @sandeepnailwal and @0xMarcB. Great to see Stacks at #5 @muneeb!

1/ We just published the Dual Stacking Litepaper — the foundation for sustainable, Bitcoin-native yield built on sBTC. Excited to share what’s next for Bitcoin yield on @Stacks 🧵
