Liquity Champions True DeFi with Trustless V2 Launch
Liquity Champions True DeFi with Trustless V2 Launch
🔒 Liquity draws battle lines
Liquity takes a stand for authentic DeFi principles with their latest manifesto declaring "DeFi without decentralization is nothing."
Key highlights:
- Liquity V2 launches as trustless and immutable (matching V1's standards)
- Strong support for permissionless DeFi free from middlemen
- Promotes $BOLD as the Ethereum dollar stablecoin
- Treasury holds over 5% in crypto stables to support the ecosystem
The bigger picture: This aligns with Liquity's consistent messaging about supporting Ethereum-backed stablecoins and putting "bags where your chain is." Their approach emphasizes true decentralization over centralized alternatives.
Why it matters: As DeFi matures, projects like Liquity are drawing clear lines between genuinely decentralized protocols and those that merely use DeFi branding while maintaining centralized control structures.
DeFi without decentralization is nothing Liquity wholeheartedly agrees with this manifesto. Liquity V2 is trustless and immutable (as is V1) support DeFi that is permissionless support DeFi that is free from middlemen support the @ethereum dollar that is $BOLD
