Looks like hybride of bitcoin and ethereum. Nice collaboration, but what do we need it for Huh

I think you're right about the hybrid situation and from my understanding, RSK brings the best of Ethereum to the Bitcoin ecosystem as stated by Nick Szabo himself on 2015 about RSK here:

On top of that, RSK recently mentioned as the safest smart contract platform in the world:

So much so even Microsoft is tweeting about RSK https://twitter.com/Azure/status/1113848710163849219, also, I kinda feel it's simplistic to call it a BTC/ETH hybrid. There's much more to it.
