StaFi Revamp Wave #2 – From Staking Finance to Staking AI Finance

[PRESS RELEASE – Singapore, Singapore, April 2nd, 2025]

StaFi has announced the next phase of its development strategy with the launch of Revamp Wave 2, introducing “Staking AI Finance” as part of the protocol’s ongoing evolution from liquid staking infrastructure to AI-integrated services.

Transition to Staking AI Finance

This phase represents a strategic expansion of StaFi’s service offering, moving from its initial focus on Staking Finance to incorporating artificial intelligence into its liquid staking architecture. This development builds on StaFi’s core infrastructure and is intended to support AI-native applications within the staking ecosystem.

Protocol Background and Achievements

Since inception, StaFi has focused on addressing liquidity challenges in proof-of-stake (PoS) networks through liquid staking tokens (LSTs). To date, the protocol has introduced multiple LSTs—including rETH, rMATIC, rBNB, and rATOM—designed to offer staking utility while retaining liquidity.

Key performance highlights include:

• Peaking at approximately $34 million in staked ETH via the rETH product.
• Managing 554 validators through its validator matching system.
• Achieving a total value locked (TVL) of $100 million across the ecosystem.

StaFi 2.0 and LSaaS

The StaFi 2.0 upgrade introduced Liquid Staking as a Service (LSaaS), a framework that enables developers to create custom LSTs and Liquid Re-staking Tokens (LRTs). This infrastructure provides tools across various blockchain ecosystems, including:

• ETH LSD Stack
• EVM-based networks (SEI, BNB)
• LRT platforms (EigenLayer, Karak)
• BTC-based LSD (Babylon)
• Cosmos and Solana ecosystems

Ecosystem Collaborations

To enhance interoperability and development capabilities, StaFi has partnered with:

• Chainlink, for CCIP integration
• Everclear, for cross-chain interoperability
• zkMe, for zero-knowledge proof applications
• Vouch, for vPLS deployment on the ETH LSD stack

These partnerships aim to extend StaFi’s role in creating cross-functional tools for staking infrastructure.

AI Integration Initiatives

As part of its transition to Staking AI Finance, StaFi is developing several AI-focused applications. Notable projects include:

• Staking Code Agent: A tool designed to generate blockchain code using natural language, based on StaFi’s existing LSaaS architecture.
• Staking Assistant Agent: A language-based interface that facilitates yield optimization and staking execution through conversational input.

Both tools utilize large language models (LLMs) to reduce technical barriers for developers and end-users, supporting broader adoption of staking technologies.

Outlook

StaFi’s strategic direction reflects a broader trend toward incorporating AI capabilities into blockchain protocols. Further updates on the development and deployment of StaFi’s AI agents are expected in the coming weeks.

About StaFi Protocol

StaFi is a protocol offering Liquid Staking as a Service (LSaaS) for PoS networks. It enables the creation of Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) and Liquid Re-staking Tokens (LRTs) for ecosystems including Ethereum, EVM-compatible chains, Bitcoin, Cosmos, and Solana. The protocol issues rTokens (e.g., rETH, rBNB) to provide staking rewards while preserving asset liquidity.
