Liquid-Staking

Liquid Staking allows users to earn staking rewards while maintaining the liquidity of their assets through Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs).Unlike traditional staking, protocols like Lido and Rocket Pool issue a receipt token (e.g., stETH) that can be used across DeFi for lending or yield farming. In 2026, the sector has expanded into Restaking via EigenLayer, further increasing capital efficiency. This tag explores the balance between network security and liquidity, the rise of LRTs (Liquid Restaking Tokens), and PoS yield optimization.

XRP’s DeFi Utility Expands With Launch of Liquid Staking Token ‘mXRP’

XRP’s DeFi Utility Expands With Launch of Liquid Staking Token ‘mXRP’

The post XRP’s DeFi Utility Expands With Launch of Liquid Staking Token ‘mXRP’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tokenization platform Midas has partnered with Interop Labs and Axelar to launch the liquid staking token ‘mXRP’, which expands XRP’s DeFi utility and offers token holders yields of up to 8%. This development follows the launch of the first XRP-backed stablecoin, which has also helped boost the altcoin’s utility. mXRP Launches on Axelar, Boosting XRP’s Utility In a press release, Midas announced the launch of the liquid staking token on Axelar, which it described as a first-of-its-kind tokenized exposure product “offering meaningful, XRP-denominated yield strategies.” The tokenization platform revealed that they issued mXRP token on the new XRPL EVM through audited smart contracts. As CoinGape reported earlier, the XRP Ledger EVM sidechain is connected to the XRPL through an Axelar Bridge. Midas will provide the structuring and infrastructure behind the liquid staking token. Meanwhile, Axelar helps bridge the XRP asset into the protocol. The network will also enable the tokenization of this XRP product across over 80 blockchains, which Midas noted makes it the ideal platform to broaden access to this token. The mXRP launch follows the launch of the first XRP-backed stablecoin, which has also helped to boost the altcoin’s use case in the DeFi space. As to how this XRP product will work, Midas stated that by minting the product, users will deposit XRP collateral into a tokenized certificate structure that tracks the performance of underlying on-chain and off-chain yield strategies. Hyperithm will help provide risk curation services for the liquid staking token at launch. Meanwhile, the tokenization platform noted that they have fully integrated the token within the XRPL EVM ecosystem and that users can deploy it across DeFi protocols to access other opportunities, including lending markets and native integrations. Midas stated that the targeted net return range for the mXRP token is currently between 6% 8%…

XRP Holders Can Now Earn Up to 8% Through New Liquid Staking Token

XRP Holders Can Now Earn Up to 8% Through New Liquid Staking Token

The post XRP Holders Can Now Earn Up to 8% Through New Liquid Staking Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Real-world assets (RWA) focused project Midas and Interop Labs unveiled mXRP, an attempt to channel dormant XRP supply into yield-bearing structures the could deliver returns as high as 8%. Announced at XRPL Seoul 2025 on Monday and pitched as the first liquid-staking product tied directly to the XRP ecosystem, the product is minted on XRPL’s EVM through audited contracts. XRP is bridged in and wrapped under Midas’ tokenized certificate framework. MXRP can be used as a structured vehicle that users can slot into existing decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure, with early strategies including market-making and liquidity provisioning. Targeted net returns are set in the 6%–8% range, with outcomes fluctuating depending on underlying strategy performance. “Much of the XRP supply has been dormant for years; mXRP provides a transparent mechanism for users to access on-chain strategies,” said Dennis Dinkelmeyer, co-founder and CEO of Midas. “With strong community demand and DeFi integrations, we believe mXRP can play a key role in unlocking new use cases for XRP.” The mXRP token is fully integrated within the XRPL EVM ecosystem at launch and can be deployed across DeFi protocols, such as lending markets and native integrations, to access additional opportunities.

Aster token pumps more than 500% post-TGE launch

The post Aster token pumps more than 500% post-TGE launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. ASTER token soars 550% to $0.52 post-TGE. Total value locked catapulted to $1 billion, doubling pre-launch figures. Aster’s debut bolsters BNB Chain’s ecosystem, boosting the BNB price. The Aster ($ASTER) token’s debut saw it hit $0.58, rocketing by more than 500% within hours. Aster then slightly pared the gains as traders looked for profits post-TGE and airdrop distribution for the YZi Labs-backed protocol. Altcoins such as Lagrange, EigenLayer and BNB have outshone the broader market. Launching at an initial price of approximately $0.08, the token swiftly ascended to a peak of $0.52. It is a move that encompassed a staggering 550% gain in its first trading session and saw ASTER’s market capitalization rally past the $800 million threshold. On debut, Aster rose to rank among the top 150 cryptocurrencies by market cap. A significant first step for $ASTER on BNB Chain. • $345M traded in 24h• Price reached $0.528 (~1,650%)• 330K new wallets joined• TVL $660M → $1.005B• Platform volume near $1.5B Thanks to our community for the trust and support.

Sharps Tech Partners with BONK on $450M Solana Stake

The post Sharps Tech Partners with BONK on $450M Solana Stake appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Highlights Nasdaq-listed medical firm, Sharps Technology, has announced its partnership with the leading memecoin project on Solana, BONK The company will allocate a portion of its massive $450 million worth of Solana holdings to BONK’s liquid staking system The company will use BONK’s “bonkSOL” system, which charges 0% fees on deposits, withdrawals, and management On September 16, the leading memecoin project, BONK, unveiled its partnership with Sharps Technology, a company known for manufacturing safety syringes and medical equipment.  The Dog is excited to welcome Sharps Technology (NASDAQ: STSS) into the BONK ecosystem initially with our liquid staking partnership, which continues the journey of $BONK into new realms with new partners! Let’s BONK ❗️❗️❗️ https://t.co/nH5QrVKrCH — BONK!!! (@bonk_inu) September 16, 2025 According to the official announcement, the medical company will partner with the BONK ecosystem to implement a liquid staking strategy for its substantial cryptocurrency holdings.  This announcement comes just weeks after Sharps Technology raised over $400 million specifically to invest in Solana (SOL). This staggering investment makes it one of the largest corporate holders of SOL. Sharps Technology to Use BONK’s Liquid Staking System This partnership will allow Sharps Technology to earn passive income on its cryptocurrency investments, thanks to a process called “liquid staking.” Instead of simply holding its SOL tokens, the company will stake them through BONK’s system and generate rewards. At the same time, the company will be able to use these assets for other purposes. One can think of this approach as similar to earning interest in a savings account. (Source: STSSsol on X) James Zhang, Strategic Advisor to STSS, explained the thinking behind this partnership, saying, “BONK has become one of the cultural engines of Solana and has consistently driven innovation across the ecosystem.

Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop

Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop

The post Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kinetiq, a liquid staking protocol built around Hyperliquid’s HYPE token, has seen an explosion of inflows in recent weeks as users pile in to farm the protocol’s airdrop points campaign. Total value locked (TVL) on Kinetiq has jumped from roughly $458 million in mid-July to over $2.1 billion today, according to DefiLlama. While part of the increase can be attributed to a 20% rise in the price of HYPE over the same period, another big driver has been raw deposits. The amount of HYPE staked has climbed from under 10 million tokens in July to nearly 40 million now. Kinetiq’s points program opened mid-July, underscoring that it is driving activity in its ecosystem. Kinetiq Deposits (DeFiLlama) The surge demonstrates the growing influence of Hyperliquid, which is fast becoming a DeFi heavyweight as liquidity, trading activity and staking demand migrate onto its ecosystem. Points programs in particular, where protocols distribute future token allocations to early participants, continue to pull in yield-hungry crypto investors. By staking HYPE through Kinetiq, users not only earn standard staking rewards but also accumulate points toward a potential Kinetiq token airdrop. For many DeFi traders, that double yield opportunity has proven irresistible, some have shared on X.

Solana-DeFi-Protokolle treiben TVL 2025 auf Allzeithoch von 12,1 Mrd. USD

Solana-DeFi-Protokolle treiben TVL 2025 auf Allzeithoch von 12,1 Mrd. USD

Jüngsten Marktdaten zufolge ist der TVL von Solana DeFi auf ein neues Allzeithoch von 12,1 Milliarden US-Dollar gestiegen. Dieser Anstieg zeigt die starke Nachfrage sowohl von Privatanwendern als auch von großen Institutionen. Es handelt sich hierbei nicht um eine kurzlebige Rallye, sondern das Wachstum unterstreicht, wie Solana sich einen Platz in der globalen DeFi-Arena gesichert hat. Institutionelles Momentum stärkt Solana Institutionelle Investitionen spielen eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Steigerung des TVL von Solana DeFi. Unternehmen haben durch Liquid Staking und strukturierte Produkte Milliarden in Solana-basierte Protokolle investiert. Ein bemerkenswerter Schritt war die Zuweisung von 1,6 Milliarden US-Dollar durch Forward Industries an Solana, um seine Krypto-Bestände zu diversifizieren. Auch ETF-Anträge tragen dazu bei. Anfang dieses Jahres stellte die SEC klar, dass Liquid-Staking-Token nicht automatisch als Wertpapiere eingestuft werden. Diese Entscheidung öffnete die Tür für ETF-Anträge im Zusammenhang mit Solana-Staking-Produkten wie JitoSOL und Marinade. Wenn sie genehmigt werden, könnten diese Produkte Mainstream-Investoren anziehen, die regulierte Engagements bevorzugen. Führende Protokolle im Ökosystem von Solana Der Großteil des TVL-Anstiegs stammt von leistungsstarken Protokollen: Protockoll Ungefähre TVL (USD) Segment Jupiter 3,3 Mrd. USD DEX & Aggregator Jito 3,2 Mrd. USD Liquid Staking Kamino 3,1 Mrd. USD Kreditvergabe & Liquidität Sanctum 2,8 Mrd. USD Staking Raydium 2,4 Mrd. USD DEX Marinade 2,2 Mrd. USD Liquid Staking Drift 1,3 Mrd. USD Derivate Das ungleiche Gleichgewicht zugunsten der Handelsplattform, der Staking-Lösung und des Kreditinstruments deutet darauf hin, dass das Wachstum der Solana DeFi TVL nicht ausschließlich aus einem einzigen Sektor stammt. Nutzerorientiertes Handeln, Staking und Kreditaufnahme zeichnen zumindest ein vollständigeres Bild eines vielfältigen Ökosystems. Nutzerbedarf und Marktstimmung Die Akzeptanz durch die Nutzer wächst parallel zur institutionellen Unterstützung. Die Stablecoin-Aktivitäten auf Solana haben zugenommen, und die Transaktionsgebühren sind weiterhin niedriger als bei konkurrierenden Blockchains. Analysten stellen fest, dass Entwickler Solana weiterhin für die Erstellung schneller und skalierbarer Anwendungen bevorzugen. Ein Bericht hebt hervor, wie Solanas TVL auf neue Höchststände gestiegen ist, was „ein Zeichen für das wachsende Vertrauen in sein Ökosystem“ ist. Preisentwicklung und Marktausblick Der Preis von SOL spiegelt die zunehmende Attraktivität des Netzwerks wider und hält sich stabil über wichtigen Widerstandsniveaus. Die Charts zeigen eine stetige Nachfrage von langfristigen Inhabern. Während kurzfristige Schwankungen bestehen bleiben, ist der allgemeine Ausblick mit dem Wachstum von Solana DeFi TVL verbunden. Wenn die ETF-Zulassungen voranschreiten, könnten die Auswirkungen auf den Preis und die Akzeptanz erheblich sein. Fazit Basierend auf den neuesten Untersuchungen signalisiert Solana DeFi TVL mit 12,1 Milliarden US-Dollar mehr als nur einen numerischen Meilenstein. Er bestätigt, dass das DeFi-Ökosystem von Solana eine Phase der globalen Anerkennung erreicht hat, unterstützt durch institutionelle Zuflüsse, Nutzeraktivität und starke Entwicklerunterstützung. Mit den laufenden Staking-ETFs und der Erweiterung der Protokolle entwickelt sich Solana zu einem der einflussreichsten Netzwerke im Bereich der dezentralen Finanzen.

Zusammenfassung Solana DeFi TVL ist dank institutioneller Zuflüsse, Nutzerakzeptanz und Staking-Wachstum auf einen Rekordwert von 12,1 Milliarden US-Dollar gestiegen. Führende Protokolle wie Jupiter, Jito und Kamino sind der Motor dieses Anstiegs, während ETF-Anträge weiteres Wachstum versprechen. Mit Stablecoin-Aktivitäten und niedrigen Gebühren als Treibstoff sichert sich Solana seine Position als eines der stärksten Ökosysteme in der dezentralen Finanzwelt.

Cracked Labs launches BattleCodes: Turning crypto events into a sport

Cracked Labs launches BattleCodes: Turning crypto events into a sport

The post Cracked Labs launches BattleCodes: Turning crypto events into a sport appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cracked Labs today announced BattleCodes — The DeFi Arena, a high-stakes, esports-style tournament set to redefine crypto events. Hosted on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at OS NYC in Lower Manhattan, this one-day event combines developer competition with live trading for a $10,000 winner-take-all prize, streamed in real-time on Twitch and YouTube. Unlike traditional conferences featuring panels and passive engagement, BattleCodes stages a head-to-head bracket competition where ten finalists, and only the best, compete live using BNB Chain via Aster. Participants execute real trades under pressure, with results displayed on venue LED leaderboards and broadcast globally. Ellis Norman, CEO of Cracked Labs, emphasizes the format shift: “Panels and hackathons aren’t enough anymore. BattleCodes is bringing drama, stakes, and outcomes that matter, tested live, in public.” A format borrowed from esports, built for crypto BattleCodes embraces an esports-style structure instead of the standard conference layout. The competition begins with open qualifiers from September 10 to 18 on Aster × BNB Chain, where traders compete for the top 20 spots.  From there, participants refine their strategies and personal profiles in a week-long “Virtual Sprint,” with workshops led by sponsors. A livestreamed Draft Day on September 25 allows partners to draft their finalists, factoring in fan voting and wildcard entries. The selected finalists then enter a week-long Bootcamp (September 26 to October 6), preparing their systems, accounts, and media assets.  The grand finals on October 7 comprise three intense phases: 1. Opening Bell,2. Endgame Push, and3. The Cage Match. All determined by P&L performance, technical execution, and audience engagement. In this tournament, every round is public and decisive. Winners advance, others are eliminated. The key differentiator of BattleCodes is how sponsors function as foundational pillars, not passive backdrops. BNB Chain provides the execution layer, wallet onboarding, and attribution framework. JZ, Senior Solutions Architect at…

Ethereum ETFs hit by $1 billion pullback as lack of staking yield tests conviction

Ethereum ETFs hit by $1 billion pullback as lack of staking yield tests conviction

The post Ethereum ETFs hit by $1 billion pullback as lack of staking yield tests conviction appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs have posted about $1 billion in net outflows, days after taking in roughly $1.4 billion during the prior week. The swing centers on primary market creations and redemptions that have become the main conduit for institutional ETH exposure in the U.S. Per SoSoValue’s U.S. ETH ETF dashboard, cumulative net outflows across the eight-day window from Aug. 29 to Sept. 5 were about $952 million. The same feed shows that the week immediately before, Aug. 22 to Aug. 28, drew approximately $1.58 billion of net inflows, confirming the week-to-week whipsaw visible in daily totals. Daily prints underline how quickly flows can pivot. On Sept. 5, the combined products recorded about $446.8 million leaving in one session, a return to redemptions after several inflow days the week prior. At the broader product level, CoinShares’ latest weekly fund-flows report for the period ending Sept. 1 shows Ethereum leading all digital assets with about $1.4 billion of inflows. The note also records that flows turned negative on the Friday of that week after the U.S. core PCE release, linking the change in tone to macro data rather than product-specific mechanics alone. Product design still matters for stickiness. U.S. spot ETH ETFs do not engage in proof-of-stake validation or any related activity that would earn staking rewards. For example, BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust prospectus states the trust will not directly or indirectly use any portion of its ether for staking and will not earn staking income. The absence of native yield inside the wrapper can reduce the incentive to hold through drawdowns, particularly when spot ETH holders can access staking returns on-chain. Issuer-level patterns remain uneven. Farside’s ETH ETF table shows that Grayscale’s converted ETHE often posts redemptions on risk-off days while lower-fee funds absorb creations when demand returns, a rotation…
