Rootstock ​​Is Activating Real-Time Protection With Hypernative

Hypernative's real-time threat detection and automated response platform to secure Rootstock, Bitcoin’s DeFi layer.

Hypernative

Rootstock is adopting Hypernative's industry-leading real-time threat detection and automated response platform to safeguard Rootstock, Bitcoin’s DeFi Layer, from hacks, exploits, and fraud.

Rootstock is the first and longest running Bitcoin sidechain. Born in 2018 in Argentina, Rootstock is now the most widely used DeFi layer for Bitcoin. By combining the security of Bitcoin's proof of work with Ethereum's smart contract capabilities, Rootstock has become the home of DeFi on Bitcoin. The platform is open-source, EVM-compatible, and secured by over 80% of Bitcoin’s hashing power. This robust security model empowers developers to build trustless, innovative dApps within a thriving ecosystem.

Recently we’ve seen a surge of interest in Rootstock from some of the world’s leading institutions who are looking to put their BTC to work. Rootstock Institutional was set up in response to this demand and as our institutional footprint grows, our priority is to combine Bitcoin’s security with modern DeFi infrastructure. Partnering with Hypernative helps us bring greater operational assurance and real-time visibility to institutional partners deploying on BTCFi.

As part of the integration, the Rootstock network’s security will be strengthened with ecosystem-wide monitoring that spans bridges, oracles, smart contracts, multisig wallets, treasuries, and core infrastructure. Hypernative’s platform will introduce preventive workflows, protocol-specific risk models, and custom monitoring agents to flag anomalies and safeguard operations across the network. A dedicated risk dashboard and support channel will give Rootstock and its partners continuous visibility into emerging threats and system health.

Rootstock’s vision for institutional BTCFi aligns perfectly with our mission to make Web3 security seamless and proactive. By working together, we’re helping financial institutions access Bitcoin yield with the same confidence they expect from traditional infrastructure.
