It seems like on every front, the Stacks Ecosystem is pushing forward new functionality and possibility on Bitcoin. From the institutional side to developer education to tokens and new listings, we’re so proud to see the ecosystem grow and can’t get enough of working with, supporting, and cheering you on in these game-changing efforts.
Here are a few of my personal favorites to get you started:
🚀 Stacks Accelerator Demo Day, 25 teams showed us the future on Bitcoin
🌴 Miami accepts MiamiCoin protocol contributions, to put funds to work
🔐 Coinbase Custody, a leading option for institutional STX holders is live
🌌 Clarity Universe, 100+ new devs learn to wield smart contracts for Bitcoin
👛 D'CENT, top Korean wallet brings biometric, Android, iOS options to STX
Beyond these highlights, there’s plenty more in the way of NFTs, network upgrades, new integrations, and more to catch up on below.
See you out there!
