Stacks leads Bitcoin layer-2 usage with $400M BTC moved via Proof-of-Transfer, backed by Bitfinex.

Stacks, a Bitcoin layer-2 protocol enabling smart contracts, ranks first in Bitcoin usage according to Bitfinex. The protocol has moved over 4,000 BTC (around $400 million) through its Proof-of-Transfer consensus mechanism since 2021, with more than 5,000 BTC deposited in its native Bitcoin-backed asset, sBTC. Bitfinex supports Stacks beyond listing its STX token by acting as a network signer, enhancing security and liquidity. This highlights growing institutional interest in Bitcoin layer-2 solutions and the potential for more native Bitcoin DeFi applications.
