Over the past year, we've been quietly building something we believe will fundamentally change how DeFi assets work together. While the journey hasn't always been straightforward, our vision has remained constant: unlock the $34+ billion in idle liquidity currently trapped across EVM chains. Our Liquidity Generation Event was the first step that marked an important milestone in this journey. The response and engagement from our community validated what we've known all along - there's a genuin...

What is Restaking?To fully understand restaking, we first need to look into the history of liquid staking:The Start: Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs)As a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network, Ethereum requires a broad and distributed set of validators to secure the network. Validators are responsible for proposing and validating blocks, ensuring network consensus. Liquid staking protocols lower the barriers to entry for staking by enabling users to participate without running their own validator nodes (w...

The DeFi landscape has evolved significantly since we started building Tren Finance. As the first protocol focused on (re)enabling liquidity across the DeFi ecosystem, we've consistently looked for ways to make capital deployment more efficient and accessible. With our Liquidity Generation Event (LGE) approaching, we're introducing an innovative way to bootstrap liquidity through our Single Sided Liquidity (SSL) contract, powered by Gamma's infrastructure.

DeFi has consistently shown that successful protocols require deep, stable liquidity as their foundation. As Tren Finance prepares for our mainnet launch on Arbitrum, establishing this foundation through our Liquidity Generation Event (LGE) becomes a crucial first step. Starting December 17th, the LGE will create the liquidity backbone that will enable our protocol's future capabilities. The traditional approach to liquidity bootstrapping often involves complex requirements and unclear reward...

DeFi's journey toward capital efficiency has been marked by continuous innovation, with each milestone representing a significant leap forward in how users can deploy their digital assets. From Compound's introduction of basic lending markets in 2017 to EigenLayer's restaking revolution in 2023, the ecosystem has consistently evolved to unlock new possibilities for capital deployment. Yet despite these advancements, a fundamental problem persists...
