Discover Fragmetric, the Solana-based restaking protocol empowering Liquid Staking Token holders with seamless deposits, $fragSOL minting, precise rewards, and optimized staking strategies

The SOLO protocol addresses the high participation barriers and liquidity constraints faced by Ethereum independent validators. By supporting the minting of permissionless liquid staking tokens (LSTs), SOLO lowers the entry cost for independent validators to just 1.25 ETH. It allows them to borrow to stake their otherwise illiquid portion effectively. This article details the SOLO protocol’s mechanisms, including minting and burning processes, liquidation and forfeiture handling, funding rate settings, and anti-centralization mechanisms to prevent large validators from gaining excessive control over Ethereum.

This article provides a detailed introduction to the Solana (SOL) staking mechanism, including the purpose of staking, the process, sources of rewards, and how validators earn profits. Staking not only provides rewards for users but also enhances the security and decentralization of the network.

Amnis Finance pioneers liquid staking on Aptos, with liquid tokens; amAPT and stAPT. Investors can maximize their returns by further staking or providing liquidity with these tokens while still growing their initial APT stake.

The complexity of blockchain underlying technologies is increasing, and the issue of cross-chain liquidity needs to be addressed urgently. Firstly, there are numerous proof-of-stake (PoS) public chains in Layer 1 (L1), and new competitors are expected to continue emerging. Secondly, the development of Layer 2 and the introduction of modular blockchains make multi-layered blockchains more feasible. In the future, we might even see the appearance of Layers 3 and 4. In this context, multi-chain liquid staking becomes an important issue worth attention.

Stride is a liquid staking protocol operating in the Cosmos ecosystem, which is built on the Tendermint consensus mechanism. Utilizing the Cosmos SDK, Stride leverages features such as Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) and inter-chain queries, enabling it to facilitate liquid staking across multiple chains.
