The XOXNO Liquid Staking Protocol is a decentralized, efficient, and user-friendly liquid staking solution on MultiversX. It empowers users to stake EGLD and receive its liquid representation, xEGLD, which can be:
Utilized across DeFi applications.
Traded.
Held for flexibility.
The protocol resolves challenges in other liquid staking protocols by:
Optimizing delegation distribution.
Improving decentralization.
Enhancing liquidity for both providers and users.
Locked Funds: In Proof-of-Stake (PoS) systems, tokens are locked for a set duration to earn rewards, similar to fixed-term bonds.
Issue: This approach ensures steady returns but sacrifices flexibility.
Impact on Investors: Token holders cannot access their staked funds to explore higher-yield opportunities within the DeFi ecosystem, leaving portfolios illiquid and untradeable.
Delegation Centralization:
Other protocols often concentrate staking on a few providers, undermining the health and decentralization of the ecosystem.
Manipulatable Delegation Strategies:
The lack of safeguards allows unfair provider selection, enabling large players to control delegation toward their own validators.
Inefficient Stake Redistribution:
When un-delegation occurs, it heavily impacts a single provider, destabilizing their nodes.
Frequent Updates and Transaction Spam:
Other protocols rely on admin wallets for frequent updates, leading to excessive transactions and reliance on centralized control.
XOXNO offers an innovative approach to solve these challenges:
Efficient and Fair Delegation:
Delegations are accumulated daily and distributed to multiple providers at set intervals, avoiding centralization.
Batch Un-Delegations:
Un-delegations are processed in batches, reducing strain on individual providers.
Open Participation:
Providers can join freely without constraints, fostering inclusivity and decentralization.
Autonomous Protocol Updates:
Updates happen autonomously using public endpoints, reducing:
Admin interference.
Excessive transaction spam.
