What Is Stacks?
Stacks is a fast, low-cost layer on Bitcoin that brings smart contracts and apps to Bitcoin without changing Bitcoin itself. The ecosystem positions STX as the native token that powers this Bitcoin-based application layer.
What Can You Do With Stacks?
STX is used as fuel for smart contract execution, transaction processing, and digital asset registrations on the Stacks layer. Holders can also "Stack" STX by locking tokens to support the network's consensus and earn BTC rewards.
How Much Is One STX Worth?
STX's price changes continuously with market activity. Check our platform for the live STX price before you buy or sell.
When Did Stacks Start?
Stacks 2.0 mainnet launched on January 14, 2021. The Stacks team describes that launch as the point where the network brought secure apps and smart contracts to Bitcoin through an independently launched mainnet.
Is Stacks a Good Investment?
STX may appeal to buyers who want exposure to the Bitcoin application layer rather than a standalone alt-L1 thesis. The long-term case depends on Bitcoin DeFi growth, developer adoption, and continued demand for Bitcoin-secured smart-contract infrastructure.
Stacking STX pays out in Bitcoin
Stacks secures itself through Proof of Transfer: miners spend BTC to compete for the right to produce Stacks blocks, and that BTC is distributed to STX holders who lock their tokens to support consensus. The reward is paid in Bitcoin, not in STX, which makes it one of the very few ways to earn BTC yield from a mechanism that does not involve lending your coins to anybody. Locking has a cycle length, and the STX is not transferable while committed.
Anchored to Bitcoin rather than settling on it
Stacks writes to Bitcoin and inherits a degree of security from it while running its own smart contract environment in Clarity, a language that is deliberately not Turing-complete so that what a contract will do can be determined before it runs. The Nakamoto upgrade shortened block times considerably and tightened the Bitcoin finality guarantee. It is a different proposition from a rollup — Stacks is its own chain that leans on Bitcoin, not an execution layer that settles to it.
