[ANN] RSK - First Smart Contract Platform secured by the Bitcoin network

[RSK Labs]

At RSK and RIF we are building DeFi on Bitcoin to enable financial inclusion, to empower people. ✊ As Diego himself said: "Give people control of their data, their identity, their money. Bitcoin...is apolitical, resistant to censorship, in an open network where everyone can participate."

Ill be joining but I heard adrien eidleman promised to shave his chest to make it easy for a chestbuster to crawl out. Coz it could tangle itself in that abundant hair when it comes out. I can say that Im still unsure what impact RSK can have on bitcoin price if any. Its problem is its federated like Fucktom and look where Fucktom is now.

The RSK Federation is composed by multiple leading and independent companies in the Bitcoin space. I'm not sure how the Fucktom project works but on the RSK peg the way from BTC to RSK is protected by the mining network only the way back from RSK to BTC is notarized by the Federation. One additional security element is that Federation members run an HSM (Hardware Security Module) so they don't have direct access to the key so they can't steal funds, they have a passive role.

Check out the details

The recent issue with YouTube censoring crypto and BTCitcoin content is a perfect example of why decentralization is so important. RSK and RIF were created to give power and control back to the people. We strive to build a censorship-resistant ecosystem, where everyone has a voice

This RSK project has been on the air for so long but there has not been very significant results for progress, is there any good news that I can find out about? at least it can benefit the community.

Hi! Everything and anything related to RSK is posted on our announcement telegram channel and Twitter.

There's lots of stuff going on recently. We recently were covered by coindesk when DeFi was announced: https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoiners-are-building-a-sidechain-version-of-ethereums-makerdao

We were at the LaBITConf to spread the word about RSK, there we shared our plans about open shared economies thanks to RIF. The latin american social media "Taringa!" was acquired back in September, too!

If you'd like to discuss with other community members feel free to join our Telegram as well!

so you raised such an amount of money and you are still not listed on any reputable exchanges (binance bittrex)?

95% of your actual volume is on a single exchange that looks like wash trading

i am very doubtful about  RSK / RIF looks like a pure money grab.almost 2 years and nothing happen but a long downtrend for the price
