Stacks
Overview
Stacks is a programming language and blockchain platform designed to enable decentralized apps (dApps) and smart contracts on Bitcoin. It aims to bring the functionality of smart contracts and other advanced features to the Bitcoin network without altering Bitcoin itself. Stacks uses a unique consensus mechanism called Proof-of-Transfer (PoX), which anchors to Bitcoin's blockchain, allowing Stacks to inherit Bitcoin's security and decentralization.
