FAQS
What does it mean to be a backer?
Being a backer means you actively help shape the future of Bitcoin’s programmable economy through RootstockCollective. By staking $RIF and voting on activated builers, you gain RIF and RBTC. With stRIF, you can back builders, support proposals, and contribute to funding the best ideas driving Rootstock forward. Backers are key to ensuring the Collective grows in a decentralized, community-led way. You don’t just earn rewards; you play a direct role in deciding what innovations get built on Bitcoin’s most secure sidechain. RootstockCollective rewards participation with BTC-based incentives, so you benefit as the ecosystem thrives. Whether you’re passionate about DeFi, infrastructure, or bringing new builders to Bitcoin, being a backer means being part of something bigger: unlocking Bitcoin’s full potential beyond just a store of value.
How do backers earn rewards in RootstockCollective?
Backers earn rewards by staking $RIF and actively supporting builders and proposals within RootstockCollective. When you stake $RIF, you receive stRIF, which gives you the power to vote and back builders. The more you participate, by backing builders, voting on proposals, and helping guide the DAO, the more rewards you can earn through the Collective Rewards program. Backers can also benefit from special campaigns, such as NFT voting boosters or delegate initiatives, which offer extra reward opportunities. Your involvement not only helps you earn but also helps grow the Rootstock ecosystem, supporting Bitcoin’s evolution into a truly decentralized and programmable economy.
How can I get started as a backer on RootstockCollective?
Starting as a backer is simple. First, get $RIF tokens through a supported exchange. Then, connect your wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, SafePal, Bitget, etc.) to the RootstockCollective dApp. From there, stake your $RIF to receive stRIF, your governance and backing token. With stRIF, you can back builders, vote on proposals, and start earning rewards for your participation. The interface is designed to be user-friendly. As a backer, you’ll help guide Rootstock’s growth, support the best builders, and earn BTC-based rewards — all while contributing to the future of Bitcoin. Keep an eye on new proposals, campaigns, and initiatives so you can stay actively involved!
