The Powpeg is RSK’s 2-way peg protocol used to do conversions between BTC and R-BTC. It protects private keys stored in special purpose PowHSMs based on tamper-proof secure elements, using a layered design which is referred to as defense-in-depth. The minimum amount to send must be greater than 0.005 tR-BTC for Testnet, so you must be careful not to do something wrong and lose your “real” funds.
