Drivechain Secured
Funds are secured by Bitcoin hashrate through a BIP-300 peg.
RISCy Network is a sidechain secured through BIP-300 hashrate escrow rather than a separate validator set. The peg between the mainchain and the sidechain is enforced by miners, not by a custodial bridge or a multisig committee.
This lets the sidechain inherit the economic security of the chain that secures it, without introducing a new trusted party or a separate security token to defend the network.
Why it matters
- ▸ Security anchored to existing proof-of-work hashrate.
- ▸ No custodial bridge or trusted multisig to compromise.
- ▸ No separate staking token required to secure the chain.
- ▸ A trust-minimized path for moving value in and out.
