🚀 Foundry Expands Operations With Rootstock Merge Mining
#Foundry #Rootstock #Bitcoin #MergeMining #Crypto #MiningPool #Blockchain #SmartContracts #EnergyEfficiency #BitcoinEcosystem #BTC
According to CoinDesk, Foundry, the leading Bitcoin mining pool by hashrate, has announced its strategic move to diversify operations by enhancing the security of the Bitcoin layer-2 network, Rootstock, through merge mining. This approach allows miners to mine multiple cryptocurrencies using the same hashing algorithm without affecting mining efficiency.
The initiative introduces 740 exahashes per second to secure Rootstock transactions, which accounts for approximately 80% of the total computing power currently safeguarding the Bitcoin network. This development presents a new revenue stream for Foundry, as Bitcoin mining pools that engage in merge mining can earn 79% of Rootstock’s transaction fees, paid in rBTC, while utilizing their existing Bitcoin mining infrastructure.
By adopting merge mining, Foundry not only strengthens Rootstock’s security but also does so without incurring additional energy costs. This contributes to a more resilient and innovative Bitcoin ecosystem. Rootstock, a Bitcoin layer-2 network, enhances the network's security while integrating smart contract functionality and compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine.#Foundry #Rootstock #Bitcoin #MergeMining #Crypto #MiningPool #Blockchain #SmartContracts #EnergyEfficiency #BitcoinEcosystem #BTC

According to BlockBeats, the Bitcoin Lightning Network, co-initiated by Nubit, has launched the 'Bitcoin Alpha' task system, which is now open to all Bitcoin network users. Early participants have the opportunity to earn a tenfold increase in task points.
Earlier this month, the Trump family's crypto project, WLFI, integrated its stablecoin USD1 into the Bitcoin Lightning Network. This integration has facilitated 4 million Bitcoin transactions on the network, with over 250,000 unique users.
The Lightning Network, currently the only native acceleration solution and stablecoin circulation channel for the Bitcoin network, aims to promote the development of Bitcoin ecosystem projects through the Bitcoin Alpha initiative. It encourages users to accumulate Alpha points by participating in Bitcoin network activities.
The first phase of Bitcoin Alpha has already received project applications from over 50 teams. By leveraging the faster payment and programming capabilities provided by the Bitcoin Lightning Network, the Bitcoin ecosystem is poised for its most significant growth in 12 years.
Previously, on April 15, HSBC's official news disclosed that the Bitcoin Lightning Network introduced UTXO Bundling and OP_CAT instructions through a mainnet soft fork. This supports the issuance of native assets on-chain, accelerates transactions, and enables smart verification, with network efficiency reportedly increasing by 1000–2000 times compared to the original chain. This network was proposed by early Bitcoin miners, core developers, and the Nubit team.#Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #BitcoinAlpha #crypto #Nubit #stablecoin #transactions #BitcoinEcosystem #blockchain #HSBC #UTXOBundling #OPCAT

According to Cointelegraph, stablecoin leader Tether has spearheaded an $8 million investment round in Bitcoin startup Speed, aiming to advance enterprise stablecoin payments on the Bitcoin layer-2 Lightning Network. Tether emphasized the potential of Speed's architecture to integrate Lightning and stablecoins, facilitating high-scale money transfers with minimal fees, robust compliance, and extensive global reach. Tether's CEO, Paolo Ardoino, remarked that Speed's progress and adoption indicate that Bitcoin-rooted networks are poised for mainstream commerce.
The investment round also saw participation from Ego Death Capital, a Bitcoin ecosystem-focused entity. Speed currently serves over 1.2 million users, including consumers, creators, platforms, and enterprise merchants, through its Speed Wallet and Speed Merchant products, handling over $1.5 billion in annual payment volume. This strategic move aligns with Tether's broader objective to support Bitcoin-centric payment platforms and expand the utility of its Tether (USDT) stablecoin. Ardoino noted, "We back teams building practical infrastructure that reduces friction in payments and increases access to reliable settlement rails."
Tether's investment in Speed is part of a larger strategy, as the stablecoin issuer diversifies its interests across various sectors, including Bitcoin mining, AI, energy, finance, and even sports teams. Tether's substantial profits, primarily derived from interest on US Treasury bills backing USDT, have enabled these investments. The stablecoin boasts a market cap of $186.3 billion, making it the largest in the world. In the first three quarters of 2025, Tether reported profits exceeding $10 billion, following a $13.4 billion profit in 2024, establishing itself as one of the most profitable companies globally on a per-employee basis.#Tether #Bitcoin #Stablecoin #Investment #LightningNetwork #Speed #Payments #Blockchain #EnterprisePayments #USDT #Crypto #BitcoinEcosystem #Compliance #GlobalReach #TechInvestment #Fintech #AI #BitcoinMining #CryptoPayments #CryptoAdoption #BusinessStrategy #DigitalAssets #BTC
