Speaking at Money 20/20 in Amsterdam, Ricardo Castro of Rootstock Labs highlighted the focus of the Bitcoin layer-2 protocol on providing global acess to decentralized finance (DeFi), particularly in emerging markets. Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are by far the two largest decentralized networks, each with unique strengths. BTC is rewnowned for its robust security standards, while Ethereum’s blockchain emphasizes functionality and utility through smart contracts. For years, developers have tried to bridge the two concepts and create a network that can bootstrap decentralized finance solutions atop BTC’s blockchain. Rootstock Labs says it has achieved this, giving Latin American users…

I don’t think I will ever get over the death of SSX. While EA’s extreme snowboarding series isn’t officially in the ground, there hasn’t been an entry since 2012.
