.@StackingDao is approaching 100m TVL and is now the largest DeFi app on @Stacks across any Bitcoin L2, even larger than @ALEXLabBTC!

With Nakamoto upgrade close by, we will gonna see crazier numbers.

@Newmancapitalvc has been a supporter from day 1 - DeFi on Bitcoin powered by layer 2 is inevitable.

First liquid staking on Stacks. WHY it tingles my senses:
‍

• BTCfi narrative with Stacks as BTC L2

• Liquid staking airdrop à la $JITO

• 100 STX+ on StackingDAO during the 1st cycle will qualify for the Genesis NFT drop

• Points coming

It looks like @StackingDao crossed $20M in TVL fairly quickly after launch.

STX has a native BTC yield from consensus making it a unique asset. The pull of earning BTC means a large amount of STX gets locked. Now it can be liquid with liquid staking.

I used it and loved the UX.

StackingDAO just crossed $100M TVL, powering DeFi applications on Zest, Arkadiko, Bitflow and more.

They are set to become one of the largest validators on Stacks offering optimized yield performance for STX holders.

Onward

The Stacks ecosystem TVL has been surging in the last few months

The launch of @StackingDao and @Bitflow_Finance are the latest contributors to this growth

With many other DeFi protocols to go live soon, the ecosystem is poised to thrive

Stacks TVL about to double, crazy it took this long guys!

Philip is one of the top builders in the ecosystem so this is sure to be solid

It's pretty incredible seeing the @StackingDao

TVL increase week by week.
🔥 $20M TVL last week → $35M+ TVL this week 🔥

There isn't any guess work needed with numbers like this - users and devs alike love liquid staking on Stacks.

Take a moment to congratulate their team:

Liquid stacking is critical infrastructure for Bitcoin DeFi.

It lowers the opportunity cost of securing the @Stacks network through stacking, and it bootstraps ecosystem liquidity.

1. Liquid stacking providers like @StackingDao add more signers to the open network of validators while giving more people the opportunity to stack STX (without having to run a signer node).

2. By providing liquidity to Stackers, liquid stacking helps users bootstrap other ecosystem players with liquidity (ex: decentralized exchanges like @Bitflow_Finance)

FAQs

What is Stacking DAO, and how does it work?

Stacking DAO is the STX Stacking infrastructure powerhouse for the most prominent Bitcoin L2. The protocol currently offers 3 STX Stacking services:

  • stSTX: A liquid representation of stacked STX that accrues in value in STX as Stacking rewards are auto-compounded. It can also be used across DeFi to earn additional yield and points.
  • stSTXbtc: A second liquid stacking token backed 1-to-1 with STX, and holders receive sBTC streamed directly to their wallet. stSTXbtc can also be used across Stacks dApps.
  • Native Stacking: Delegate STX and earn BTC rewards with zero fees while STX are locked during the two-week Stacking cycles.
How do I receive STX Stacking rewards?

The Stacking process yields BTC rewards, but they are processed in different ways based on the Stacking DAO service.

  • stSTX: BTC rewards are converted to STX, which are automatically placed in the smart contracts that back stSTX. A user's stSTX balance stays the same, but when redeeming, they get their deposited STX plus stacking rewards.
  • stSTXbtc: BTC rewards are converted to sBTC and directly streamed to stSTXbtc wallet holders
  • Native Stacking: BTC Rewards are deposited on the user's pre-defined Bitcoin wallet
How can I unstack my STX position?

For stSTX, you can swap them to STX anytime through Bitflow for instant liquidity. Otherwise, for both stSTX and stSTXbtc you can get your STX back via Stacking DAO, but it will take up to 14 days to withdraw (length of 1 Stacking cycle).
‍
By initiating the withdrawal process on Stacking DAO, users will burn their LSTs and receive a temporary NFT that represents their withdrawal amount. Once the Stacking cycle is over, users can use the NFT to claim and withdraw their STX.

For the native stacking, it's enough to perform a "stop stacking" transaction. The STX will unlock at the end of the cycle you are currently stacked, along with your cycle rewards.

‍Read the docs for further information on the withdrawal process.

Who are the Signers used by Stacking DAO for STX delegations?

STX is delegated to the best enterprise-grade Validators/Signers in Web3, with a track record of optimal node uptime and billions in assets under management.

These Signers are responsible for running nodes while STX tokens are safely controlled by Stacking DAO smart contracts.

The stacked STX are evenly distributed among all Signers, helping to secure the Stacks network by bootstrapping a distributed set of Signers.

Where can I use stSTX and stSTXbtc tokens?

stSTX can be used across the Stacks DeFi ecosystem to earn additional yield and points. New integrations are constantly being added and can be viewed on the Stacking DAO site.

The live integrations are:

stSTXbtc is currently integrated only with Zest, where it can be deposited as collateral to borrow other assets.
