|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| F | Failed | Red | 23.6 / 100 | #95 of 203 | $0.0816 | $81.6M |

RIF is presented as an infrastructure and community token connected to Rootstock, described in the supplied profile as Bitcoin’s DeFi layer. It is said to support incentives, infrastructure, interoperability, community rewards, governance, and grants through RootstockCollective. The profile also names Rootstock services including USDRIF, described as a censorship-resistant stablecoin, and the Rootstock Name Service, which simplifies wallet addresses. At a high level, RIF is positioned as a coordinating asset for a broader Rootstock infrastructure and community layer, with intended exposure to Bitcoin-related DeFi activity across exchanges, chains, and decentralized applications. Its distinct feature is this ecosystem-support role rather than a single application focus. The source does not explain RIF’s issuance, technical operation, governance process, or mechanism for capturing value from network activity.

Every CryptoGrade rating comes from the same published, rules-based framework: six weighted dimensions produce a 0–100 composite score, hard disqualifying gates can force exclusion regardless of score, and fixed thresholds map the composite to a grade. Read the full methodology on the Framework page.
The full Rootstock Infrastructure Framework verdict — the investment thesis, disqualifier gate checks, per-dimension scores with provenance, on-chain usage and developer-activity signals, and the complete score history — is free with a sign-in and identical for everyone.
