Stacks Endowment

Pillar 1 of the roadmap. Phase one of Bitcoin-native finance. The whitepaper lays out the full mechanism behind Bitcoin Staking. Every allocator conversation we have comes back to the same thing: BTC-denominated, self-custodial yield. The demand is enormous. Stacks is the best place for it to grow 🟧

Stacks Endowment Office Hours x.com/i/spaces/1nxnR…

Bitcoin has a $1.57T idle capital problem. @Stacks is building the capacity layer to put it to work. STX is what unlocks access to Bitcoin staking. BTC stays in your wallet. Yield is paid in BTC. STX is the key to participating. Learn more ➡️ stacks.co/bitcoin-staking

Tomorrow we're hosting a live panel on what's actually working in crypto beyond the hype cycles.
