Our WORK
We pioneered building on Bitcoin
At RootstockLabs, we believe Bitcoin can underpin a more open and accessible financial system. But for that to happen, its capabilities need to extend beyond store of value into real-world financial use. HODLING is not a strategy.
This is why we have been longstanding contributors to Rootstock, Bitcoin’s Finance Layer. Launched in 2018, Rootstock enables developers and partners to build applications on top of Bitcoin’s security with the flexibility needed for real financial use cases.
Today, we continue to contribute to Rootstock’s evolution by building infrastructure, integrations, and partner solutions that help make Bitcoin work for everyone.
Bitcoin-secured smart contracts. Secure, scalable, and programmable. Protected by leading Bitcoin miners. Built to last with 100% uptime since launch.

We’re making Bitcoin
work for everyone
We believe Bitcoin can play a crucial role in breaking down barriers to economic participation. As the world’s most secure and decentralized financial infrastructure, it can become the foundation for a more open, transparent, and accessible financial system.
Making Bitcoin work for everyone means enabling practical financial use cases. From payments and savings to borrowing, investment, and cross-border value transfer. Delivered through products and services built on Bitcoin-secured infrastructure and delivered through familiar digital experiences.
Many of Rootstock’s contributors have been building on Bitcoin since the early days of the Bitcoin blockchain. From the very start they recognized its potential to solve the real-world problems experienced by citizens whose economies were failing them. But they knew building a new economy required much more than money and payments.
It was this realization that gave birth to Rootstock, the first Bitcoin Sidechain. Rootstock combines the security and store of value of Bitcoin with the programmability of Ethereum. A combination that makes Rootstock the most secure smart-contract platform on the planet. The best of both worlds. An impenetrable, uncensorable, unstoppable machine at the heart of a new economy.
RootstockLabs exists to make Bitcoin work for everyone, everywhere, all of the time. Our belief is that Rootstock will be one of the primary ways that the Bitcoin blockchain reaches civilization scale. This is why we continue to contribute to its development and why we continue to lead the way in developing new technologies that make it faster, easier and more rewarding to build on Bitcoin.
