ASSET GUIDE · STX

Stacks (STX)

Identify the asset a Bitcoin application actually spends.

CoinMarketCap rank #78 · 1 November 2026

How it works

Stacks applications can interact with several distinct assets. A wallet may hold STX for network fees alongside a token representing bitcoin.

Worked example

When an application quotes an amount in sBTC, read the asset being transferred and the estimated STX fee separately. Compare both balances before signing.

What to verify

Use the contract identifier and the transaction’s spending conditions to verify the proposed movement.
