Spent part of the task just cross-referencing the actual deployment data. Bedrock claims uniBTC lives on 19 chains — that's the "Bitcoin use cases expanding" pitch from @Bedrock in one line. $BR , #Bedrock . Sounds like scale.
Then I opened the DeFiLlama chain breakdown. Rootstock is listed as a live chain. Bedrock launched uniBTC there with an official announcement in August 2025. TVL right now: less than a dollar. The exact entry is "<$0.0001." Hemi, TAC, and Taiko are all listed too — all at zero.
Three chains hold 86% of the total $338.9M: Bitcoin chain at $134M (mostly Babylon restaking), Ethereum at $90.67M, Mode at $67.12M. The remaining 16 chains share roughly $48M combined, and most of that sits in BOB and BSC. So 19 chains deployed. Three chains doing anything real.
The infrastructure argument holds — uniBTC minting with Chainlink PoR verification, brBTC dynamically routing across six restaking protocols. That's genuine. But Rootstock sitting below a dollar after ten months live is a quiet signal about where organic demand actually forms. Whether the bottom of that chain list ever catches up, or just keeps sitting empty while the top three pull everything — that's the part I'm watching.
