Why is this important?
If every transaction in the Bitcoin network was a SegWit transaction today, blocks would contain up to 8,000 transactions, and the 138,000 unconfirmed transaction backlog would disappear instantly. Transaction fees would be almost non-existent once again. https://hackernoon.com/bitcoin-owners-you-need-to-do-these-two-things-right-now-a73122dd23d4
Segwit scales bitcoin about 2 times!!!

Now for rsk.co news!!!
RSK is a Bitcoin Sidechain. A sidechain is separate chain that connect with bitcoin's main chain. Thus allowing bitcoin to have an ethereum like system without clogging up the main chain. With the Lumino Transaction Compression Protocol (LTCP), RSK will be able to process up to 2000 tps on chain! And once the Lumino Network is deployed over RSK, it will allow up to 20k tps off-chain taking Bitcoin to Visa processing levels.
