WaxFusion Staked WAXPrice

(LSWAX)

lswax addresses the traditional dilemma faced by WAX holders: choosing between earning staking rewards and maintaining liquidity for other opportunities. Its core use case is to provide a liquid staking solution, allowing users to earn auto-compounding WAX staking rewards while their underlying WAX remains accessible. This enables participation in various decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and other ecosystem activities without forfeiting staking income, thereby maximizing capital efficiency for WAX token holders.

When users deposit WAX tokens into WaxFusion, they receive lswax, a liquid staking token, in return. This lswax is fully backed by the deposited WAX. WaxFusion's open-source smart contracts then automatically stake the underlying WAX to earn voting and staking rewards on the network. The lswax token itself represents a share of this growing staked WAX pool, with rewards automatically compounding into its value. This allows users to hold a transferable token that appreciates in value due to staking returns, without direct management.

The primary distinction is liquidity and reward management. sWAX is a non-transferable token requiring manual claiming of WAX rewards. In contrast, lswax is a liquid, transferable token that automatically compounds staking rewards, eliminating the need for manual claims. Furthermore, lswax significantly expands utility by allowing holders to participate in other decentralized finance (DeFi) opportunities, such as providing liquidity to pools, while still earning staking rewards. This offers greater flexibility and capital efficiency compared to holding sWAX.

WaxFusion prioritizes security through several key measures. Its smart contracts are fully open-source, promoting transparency and allowing for public scrutiny. These contracts have undergone audits by the WAX team itself. Additionally, the system is protected by a robust multisig permission structure. Any changes or updates to the smart contracts require consensus from a collaborative group, including the official WAX team, the OIG (WAX's oversight committee), and multiple top 21 block producers. This distributed control mechanism significantly enhances the security and resilience of the protocol against unauthorized access or malicious alterations.

lswax primarily generates rewards by staking the underlying WAX. Additionally, WaxFusion employs a portion of its earned rewards to build Protocol Owned Liquidity (POL). These treasury funds are strategically utilized for various purposes that benefit lswax holders, including staking more WAX, providing liquidity to the lswax/WAX trading pair, and offering competitive CPU rentals on the WAX network. Crucially, the rewards generated from this Protocol Owned Liquidity are majority-shared with lswax holders. This unique mechanism enhances the overall auto-compounding returns for lswax holders, contributing to a more robust and self-sustaining ecosystem.

Users have three options to redeem lswax for WAX. First, they can sell lswax instantly on the open market, where the conversion rate is subject to current market conditions. Second, they can convert lswax back to sWAX via WaxFusion and then submit a standard withdrawal request; this process can take anywhere from 1 to 21 days due to the unbonding period of staked WAX. The third option is an instant redemption directly on WaxFusion, which incurs a small 0.05% fee and is contingent on the immediate availability of WAX within the protocol's instant redemption pool.
