Stacks

Stacks is a decentralized network that aims to bring smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) to Bitcoin (BTC). The project's primary goal is to extend the functionality of the Bitcoin network without altering its core features, such as its security and stability. Stacks' unique selling proposition lies in its ability to leverage the robustness of Bitcoin's infrastructure while adding the flexibility of smart contracts and DApps. This is achieved through the Stacks blockchain, which operates as a layer-1 solution alongside Bitcoin.
