Liquid staking ASTR discussion

I’m not defending any particular rabbit here, LOL.

But from what I see, all the positive onchain activity so far has come from the existing liquid staking dApps — and yes, this is DeFi, so there will always be risks.

I totally get that you’re trying to mitigate those risks, and maybe even propose that the Astar Foundation take responsibility for wrapping, unwrapping, and maintaining the LST pools.

That could actually be something to propose to the Astar Financial Community — I just thought of that as I was typing this reply! The committee could even consider launching its own liquid staking dApp — generating fees and benefits directly for the treasury. It might be an idea worth discussing with the council once it’s elected!
