Liquid Staking on Sonic (Formerly Fantom): A New Era of DeFi Flexibility
Sonic, the rebranded and upgraded version of the Fantom blockchain, is embracing liquid staking to enhance capital efficiency within its ecosystem. Liquid staking allows users to stake their FTM tokens (now S tokens on Sonic) while still maintaining liquidity through tokenized derivatives. These derivative tokens, often referred to as sFTM or similar, can be used in DeFi protocols for lending, trading, or yield farming—unlocking greater utility for staked assets.
Unlike traditional staking, which locks tokens and limits their usability, liquid staking offers flexibility without sacrificing staking rewards. On Sonic, this mechanism supports decentralization and security while enabling broader participation in DeFi.
As Sonic pushes toward ultra-fast finality and near-zero fees, liquid staking is poised to play a crucial role in ecosystem growth. Protocols such as Beethoven X, LiquidDriver, and others are expected to integrate with Sonic’s liquid staking framework, offering users a seamless experience.
With this upgrade, Sonic is positioning itself as a leading platform for efficient, scalable DeFi applications. Liquid staking stands at the core of this vision, offering users yield opportunities without compromising access to their capital.
