Who cares? If RBTC is worth 80k or 50 cents, the name system works just the same. And if the system is designed well, it should work mostly offchain anyways.
But even for use cases that requires long term holding, i would personally trust RBTC to have more value 10 years from now than ETH.
The bridge has performed perfectly so fat, and it will get better with BitVM and eventually if we have a bitcoin softfork... ETH has nothing going for it as far as i can tell other than liquidity, which is barely relevant to the usecase at hand, and it isnt a moat. If Solana and Hyperliquid can do it, so can Rootstock. But Rootstock will always have the best track record in bridging BTC, simply because history of principled development cant be faked.
