Stacks: Genesis Bond introduces a defined STX use - Aug 2026

Stacks says the Genesis Bond milestone is scheduled for late August as the next Bitcoin Staking milestone, introducing a defined use for STX.Genesis Bond is intended to give STX a specified role within Stacks' emerging Bitcoin Staking model. Defining that role could make the token's function in the roadmap easier to understand and provide a clearer basis for evaluating how the staking design uses it.

Its practical significance will depend on how the milestone is implemented and used after it becomes available.The latest on STX from AI
