Announcement of Evolution to Customer Data Platforms

Liquity V2 successfully handled another liquidation event, processing approximately $300,000 in liquidations, primarily in ETH. **Key Performance Metrics:** - ETH Stability Pool depositors earned ~0.30% ROI on their BOLD deposits - Annualized return of 110% APR - BOLD stablecoin maintained its $1 peg throughout the event **Technical Achievement:** The entire process was executed through immutable smart contracts, demonstrating the protocol's reliability and decentralization. This marks another successful stress test for Liquity V2, following a previous event in October 2025 where the protocol processed $3.4 million in liquidations with similar stability. The results highlight the potential returns for users who deposit BOLD in the protocol's Stability Pools during market volatility.

**The Challenge of Decentralized Finance** A critical perspective from Stacy Muur highlights a fundamental contradiction in Ethereum's DeFi ecosystem: true censorship resistance cannot exist when the primary stablecoins remain subject to centralized freezing mechanisms. **BOLD's Approach** - Earned an **A- rating** from Bluechip with perfect 1.0 decentralization scores - 100% backed by staked ETH with immutable, unstoppable protocol design - No admin keys, governance, or ability to freeze user funds - Passes Vitalik Buterin's five critical tests for decentralized systems **Key Distinction** The analysis emphasizes that crypto-backed stablecoins fundamentally differ from bank-backed alternatives, even when ratings appear similar. Technical implementation determines whether money can truly be censorship-resistant.

A new development in decentralized systems has been announced, marking what appears to be a significant milestone in trustless technology implementation. **Key Points:** - The announcement centers on "The Trustless Force" - a concept or platform focused on removing intermediaries from financial or technical processes - This follows previous discussions on frictionless finance from September 2025 - The timing suggests a coordinated launch or major update to existing infrastructure The development represents continued progress in building systems that operate without requiring trust in centralized authorities or intermediaries.
