Liquidium’s Open-Source Liquid Staking for Runes

Developers Showcase
1

I’m excited to announce that Liquidium’s open-source liquid staking framework for Runes / Bitcoin DeFi is going live.

What is sLIQ?

  • Stake LIQ and receive sLIQ in return. sLIQ retains governance rights & fee rebates just like LIQ, but with extra flexibility.

  • Earn rewards via daily buy-backs: 30% of protocol fees go toward buying LIQ from the market, which is added to the staking pool.

  • Cooldown + redemption model: there’s a 7-day cooldown period when you unstake, after which you can redeem your sLIQ for LIQ + rewards.

  • Fully open-source: everything is transparent and available for anyone to build on or audit.

Why sLIQ matters

  • Liquidity while staking: with sLIQ, your capital stays usable. Trade it, use it as collateral, or just hold it.

  • Native Bitcoin / Runes integration: no wrapped assets or external bridges—everything stays on-chain.

  • Shared upside: staking rewards come from protocol growth, so everyone who stakes participates in the success.

  • Developer friendly: since the staking framework is open, other projects can integrate or adapt it.
