10. StaFi Revamp Wave #1 — SubDAOs

On February 27th, StaFi kicked off Revamp Wave #1 — SubDAOs to accelerate #LSaaS adoption and innovation. Each SubDAO will function as an independent LST protocol with its own token, enabling customized staking solutions while maintaining StaFi’s ecosystem integrity. By leveraging SubDAOs, StaFi aims to drive continuous innovation and adapt to evolving community needs.

Details: Medium Article

March Prospects

In March, our primary focus will be advancing SubDAO collaborations, bringing more partners into the ecosystem to strengthen StaFi’s growth and innovation. At the same time, StaFi AI continues to make strides. Currently, for EVM-based LSTs, AI can automate 80% of the development process, and we are refining it for even greater efficiency. We’ve also kickstarted AI-driven development for a Solana-based LST protocol — exciting progress is underway! Most importantly, we will introduce and discuss a proposal to reduce FIS inflation. If approved, this will be a major step toward further curbing inflation and enhancing the long-term sustainability of FIS.

About StaFi

StaFi is a leading Liquid Staking infrastructure provider and protocol for PoS chains. Its Liquid Staking as a Service (LSaaS) framework enables developers to create Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) and Liquid Re-staking Tokens (LRTs) across ecosystems like ETH, EVM, BTC, CosmWasm, and SOL. By issuing rTokens (e.g., rETH, rMATIC, rBNB), StaFi unlocks the liquidity of staked assets, allowing users to earn staking rewards while retaining the flexibility to engage in DeFi. With support for major blockchains such as Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, BNB Chain, and Cosmos, StaFi bridges liquidity and security in Proof-of-Stake networks.
