The Optimal Solution for Full-Chain Liquidity Infrastructure: The Innovative Path of StakeStone LiquidityPad

In today's environment of inventory competition, airdrops are no longer an effective open-source traffic incentive method; instead, they have evolved into a financial game for crypto studios and on-chain whales. With the launch of new token airdrops like PLUME, one question is becoming increasingly prominent: how can ordinary users participate more fairly and efficiently in the benefits of emerging ecosystems, rather than merely being sidekicks to the whales?

It is worth noting that StakeStone, which previously launched the pre-deposit vault, has announced a rebranding to StakeStone LiquidityPad. Its first project, Aria, reached a purchase cap of $7 million in just 9 minutes.

In the current multi-chain era, each emerging public chain is like a unique country, urgently needing capital and resources to complete industrialization. StakeStone LiquidityPad plays a similar role: on one end, it connects to the mature on-chain financial ecosystem of Ethereum, while on the other end, it connects to various emerging public chain ecosystems, assisting these emerging public chains in raising resources on the Ethereum mainnet, and bringing back the excess returns after growth to the Ethereum mainnet for trading, becoming an important infrastructure that connects Ethereum with emerging public chains.

The Liquidity Dilemma in the Multi-Chain Era

With the advancement of the modularization wave, from the multi-chain concept of Cosmos and Polkadot to the prosperity of Rollups in the Ethereum L2 era, and then to the efforts of application chains like OP Stack, Arbitrum Nova, and Starknet, more and more protocols and applications are beginning to build dedicated chains for specific needs. However, this diversity, while bringing more possibilities to the on-chain ecosystem, has also led to extreme fragmentation of Liquidity.

Starting in 2024, liquidity will not only be dispersed across Ethereum and L2, but will also be severely isolated within the dedicated ecosystems of each emerging public chain/application chain. This fragmentation phenomenon not only exacerbates the complexity of user operations and experience, but also greatly limits the further development of DeFi and on-chain applications. For Ethereum and L2, liquidity cannot flow freely, reducing capital efficiency; for emerging public chains, this means high migration costs and entry barriers, making it difficult to break the liquidity island effect from 0 to 1, hindering ecological expansion.

In this context, both users and developers are eager for funds to flow efficiently across any network's chain protocols, breaking down the fragmented barriers of networks and user experience. Especially in the emerging public chain ecosystem outside of the Ethereum ecosystem, users need to be able to easily migrate assets from Ethereum or other chains to participate in its DeFi protocols, Liquidity mining, or other yield opportunities.

For users, liquidity is always key. Therefore, if Ethereum and the multi-chain ecosystem are to continue to scale and thrive, it is essential to efficiently integrate the liquidity resources dispersed across multiple chains and platforms. This requires establishing a unified technical framework and standards, thereby bringing broader applicability, liquidity, and scalability to the multi-chain ecosystem.

StakeStone LiquidityPad: A Leap for the All-Chain Liquidity Network

StakeStone has aimed at building a comprehensive liquidity infrastructure from the very beginning, gradually constructing the prototype of its liquidity network through a series of Vault products aimed at emerging public chain ecosystems. Whether it is the Pre-Deposit Vault launched in collaboration with Plume, or the Vault launched in partnership with Berachain, they are all StakeStone's pioneering attempts in different ecological scenarios.

The rebranded StakeStone LiquidityPad is, in fact, a comprehensive on-chain liquidity customization solution aimed at diverse needs, covering the entire lifecycle of liquidity support from cold start to ecosystem expansion. For projects that have not yet launched their mainnet, it supports raising the liquidity needed for early cold starts by publishing a pre-deposit vault on the Ethereum mainnet. For projects that have already launched their mainnet, it supports customizing vaults for specific liquidity yield scenarios to help the project ecosystem achieve rapid growth.

The core value of StakeStone LiquidityPad lies not only in solving the liquidity isolation issues of emerging public chains and application chains but also in forming a "full-chain liquidity flywheel" that integrates multiple asset yields and liquidity release through its unique mechanism design. The LP Tokens obtained by users through depositing assets are not only certificates of rights within the ecosystem of emerging public chains but also the key to unlocking multiple yields.

This mechanism allows users' assets to be reused across multiple ecosystems, maximizing returns while significantly lowering the participation threshold for emerging ecosystems. With the accumulation of multiple returns, users' investment returns can be maximized, and the acceptance and recognition of emerging ecosystems can quickly gain momentum, creating a positive flywheel effect.

The upgrade of StakeStone LiquidityPad means that it can more effectively connect emerging ecosystems in the cold start phase with mature ecosystems of different yield scenarios. It not only helps emerging public chains raise cold start funds but also brings excess returns back to mature markets, achieving a complete cycle of resources.

In the future, with the accelerated expansion of the multi-chain ecosystem, StakeStone LiquidityPad is expected to become a core hub connecting emerging public chains and mature markets, bringing more efficient and fair liquidity solutions to users and protocol parties. From the liquidity dilemma of "entropy increase" to the ecological prosperity driven by "flywheel effect", redefining the liquidity infrastructure of Web3 is not only an inevitable path for StakeStone to further improve the overall chain liquidity topic, but also the optimal solution to promote the maturity of the multi-chain ecosystem.
