Join us for a workshop with Christian Arevalo from Rootstocl Labs titled, "How to Build an EVM dApp on Bitcoin with Rootstock." In this session, we will guide you through building an EVM-compatible dApp on Bitcoin using Rootstock (RSK). Suitable for both seasoned developers and newcomers to blockchain, this workshop will provide a comprehensive introduction to the tools and techniques needed to develop and deploy dApps on Rootstock. ----------------- Follow us: https://x.com/ethglobal Check us out: https://ethglobal.com/ Email us at: hello@ethglobal.com

Transcript

my name is Christian aralo I've been a software engineer for three years I've been doing blockchain for two years ER well I'mma start telling you about a bit about um rootstock uh rootstock is the first Bitcoins ER h well bitcoin's first and longest standing side chain uh the value that Bitcoin that rootstock proposes is that it's the first uh fully evm compatible um uh side chain with Bitcoin allowing Builders H with the H with the ER allowing I'm sorry the developers can also position we have a merged mining uh like techn techology in which like you use a Best of Both Worlds Bitcoin and ethereum uh we also allow developers to use uh the same solidity tools and libraries as I already said before the ones you came H sharing Bitcoin and ethereum like benefits and uh we also host a variety of DS and protocols uh in rootstock so uh it is designed to combine the security and store value of Bitcoin with the compa of and program programmability of ethereum H so what makes rootstock uh outstanding so these are some uh stats that we have um we've had uh 50% Bitcoin merch mining hash rate average uh the average uh block time H is 28 seconds dropping to 5 Seconds H with M micr powerc that is um tool that is currently being worked on uh we have uh more than 125 protocols and partners live 1885 million USD Bitcoin locked inway pack and we also have 272 million USD native total value locked in defi so these are uh some of the stats uh well work are uh the security we have uh well the one of the most secure uh networks uh we have sort of value uh from Smart Bitcoin well the P our P native token and uh the compatibility H with all the standards from ethereum uh like erc20 erc721 ERC 777 ERC 1155 and ERC 4626 and also the scalability as I told you before the microp power that's being work that is going to low our average time to 5 Seconds currently 28 seconds um thing thing like us build like us uh join our growing ecosystem of wirers we have uh like I no I'm going to tell you about the grounds later but uh we some of the H tools that we also have in um root stock ER are uh JavaScript R wagi some uh very popular tools that you also can use like in other chain like the transition to developing on rootstock is seamless and um also we have H some interesting partners that we've uh linked with it like third web uh like it has many services that are very useful ether spot gelato tenderly uh these are some of the uh well main uh companies or protocols that we have on the rootstock ecosystem building on bitcoin we have defi platforms like sovereing tropicus er stable coins money on chain uh also refund chain H wallets global global exchanges onof you should really uh uh think in applying to our um ER grants we have three like three million USD on on on grants created to grow and support the rootstock well builders in general Bangkok we have two main price tracks uh the best defi app on root stock. $5,500 a demonstration of how you can deploy a smart contract using uh well in rootstock blockchain here I have uh like a resource to our RPC API uh I'm going to be using uh remix for this time so let me just H look for it construct wizard uh okay we're going to have a token this is like arbitrary you can choose whatever you want H and I'm going to copy well I'm so uh here we have an erc20 like common token we're going to compile the contract we see already compiled and um one uh important thing uh test net added to your metamask you can use our RPC API or alemy okay uh let's say the initial earner is my own address and uh let's say uh deploy I'm sorry I am the deploying it in Cancun I'm going to use uh the injected provider so here we have teamed up with uh Alchemy and we well well they offer um also rpcs uh to like the connect to our blockchains uh also you can use uh one of our uh um really useful resources that's the RPC API from Ro you can uh create an account here uh and you you'll get a private RPC uh like uh endpoint H that you can uh like point to and I think we already have the our contract deployed here and yeah um we're going to check on it on the Explorer and this is our contract uh as we saw well in remix we it is called uh I'm sorry yeah it is called E I'm sorry we're going to let me see if this is the contract that we deployed okay yeah is good okay yeah I think it is the one that we deployed already like 10 minutes ago yeah okay so this is uh mainly how you can deploy a contract on um the rootstock blockchain you can also use uh tools like hard heart and Foundry and they will work uh the same and uh let's go back to the and thank you so much for this head to our estan and we'll be more than happy to help you with that and that's it so thanks so much let's connect to J
