Stacks (STX) is the native token of the Stacks blockchain, a Bitcoin Layer 2 that brings smart contracts and DeFi to Bitcoin without modifying Bitcoin itself. Stacks transactions are secured by Bitcoin through its Proof of Transfer (PoX) mechanism, where STX miners spend Bitcoin to mine new STX blocks. Stacking (locking STX) earns Bitcoin rewards directly, making it one of the few ways to earn Bitcoin yield without selling BTC. African crypto investors can buy and sell STX on Bitget and Bybit with local payment methods.
