Liquity V2 has introduced $BOLD, a new Ethereum-native stablecoin with distinct characteristics:
Key Features:
- Immutable protocol - no future changes possible to core mechanics
- ETH-only collateral - backed exclusively by ETH, wstETH, and rETH
- Protocol-enshrined real yield - built-in yield generation mechanism
- Direct redeemability - users can redeem BOLD for underlying collateral
The project positions itself as a return to DeFi fundamentals, emphasizing decentralization and immutability over governance flexibility.
A reminder that Liquity V2 and $BOLD are - Immutable with no changes possible - Offers protocol-enshrined real yield - Offers a Ethereum-native stablecoin that is only backed by ETH, wstETH, and rETH study DeFi and decentralization as it's meant to be.
Barring favorable rulemaking, anyone not named Uniswap, Liquity, Morpho probably needs to think about how to reduce or disperse control. Or find novel ways to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act. Can’t really hide out as “non-US” under this bill either. They’ll still come for you.
