Bitcoin-native finance is a system designed to put latent capital to work directly on or anchored to the Bitcoin base layer. Bitcoin staking for Stacks will happen on the base layer. Zest, Hermetica, Bitflow, and others let you use native BTC in their apps, with Stacks running in the background to move it to the L2, deploy it into a productive use case, and settle your transactions back to Bitcoin, leveraging 100% of Bitcoin's security budget.
A post-Bitcoin staking roadmap item goes further. It lets you use your L1 staked Bitcoin as collateral to take out a self-custodial loan, borrowing Stacks assets to deploy in Bitcoin-native financial applications. Stacks is building the full finance stack native to Bitcoin, making Bitcoin productive and efficient capital. I'm excited to see this develop further over the next few months.
