The CLARITY Act Wasn’t a Bill of Rights. It Was a Bill of Restrictions.
- @saylor
The point is simple: if “freedom tech” is the goal, legislation should clearly define what people and companies are allowed to do, not bury a few rights beneath hundreds of pages of restrictions.

How much of Bitcoin’s mining power is actually securing @Rootstock_io ?
The Q2 2026 Merged Mining Report gives us the numbers.
83.96% of Bitcoin’s hashrate was contributing to Rootstock through merged mining.
Here’s what that means.

Bitcoin’s next cycle may be about more than price.
The interesting shift: dollars don’t have to leave BTC anymore.
BTC can stay locked as collateral while credit and liquidity are built on top of it.
That’s Bitcoin amplification.

Security is not supposed to be instant.
@rootstock_io 33–36 hour peg-out delay adds time, Proof-of-Work and multiple safeguards before BTC can move.
Bitcoin provides the monetary base and security.
Rootstock adds programmability and financial functionality.

A security incident on @Liquid_BTC saw 4,000 BTC ($320M) withdrawn from the Federation wallet. No keys were stolen, a bug let unbacked LBTC get minted and peg out as if it were real. The sidechain is now paused while Blockstream investigates
@rootstock_io is designed differently
The problem is that Liquid is not a sidechain as defined in the original Sidechain paper..
Sidechains require proof-of-work. Rootstock forces a 36-hour delay for peg-outs, and that's good enough for the miners to stop mining Rootstock in case of a consensus failure.
Rootstock is actually an HSM-enforced drivechain plus a federation majority approval requirement.
Better than a drivechain and better than a federation.

rBTC ≠ a new altcoin.
It represents BTC on @rootstock_io
The 1:1 peg means BTC is locked on btc L1 while an equivalent amount of rBTC is available on Rootstock for DeFi and smart contracts.
When rBTC exits, it’s removed from circulation and the corresponding BTC is released.

If Bitcoin block space becomes more expensive as demand grows, you don’t necessarily need to fight that.@rootstock_io exists for a reason.
Bitcoin become the scarce settlement layer and move applications to layers built around it.
Here’s why that matters in the BIP-110 debate 🧵

Bitcoin Breaks the Gatekeepers
On our @BitcoinWalkOrg today, the key idea was simple: Bitcoin breaks the gatekeepers. It doesn’t just give you a seat at the table, it helps you build your own.
Whenever #Bitcoin is shown on TV or Netflix, it’s framed around crime.
