⚡️ Summary of Proposal 43:

Enable pSTAKE support for the Liquid Staking Module (LSM) on the Cosmos Hub.

Consider Alice has a total of 10,000 ATOM natively staked across 3 validators of her choice. LSM support on pSTAKE will allow her to do the following:

1. Go to http://cosmos.pstake.finance and choose to liquid stake using Validator Delegation (LSM)

2. See all 3 individual delegations

3. Select the amount of delegation (staked ATOM) to liquid stake

4. Convert staked ATOM into liquid stkATOM instantly

5. Use stkATOM in DeFi: Dexter, Umee, Shade Protocol, Osmosis, Crescent, Nolus

The LSM will unlock ~$400M+ worth of staked ATOM to be liquid staked instantly.

This is expected to increase pSTAKE’s adoption in Cosmos and TVL on Persistence 🦾

Let’s be sure to vote on this before 12 September 2023!

125 - Seconds it took for a successful v9 Katmai chain upgrade to enable the Cosmos Hub LSM support on pSTAKE 😎

$400M - Amount of staked $ATOM the LSM unlocks to be instantly liquid staked into LSTs like #stkATOM on the pSTAKE dApp UI 🦾

HUGE for LSTfi on Persistence!

[Persistence Forum Discusssion]

ℹ️ Topic

Bootstrapping USDT and USDC liquidity on Dexter with Persistence Community Owned Liquidity (PCOL)

⚡Tl;dr

Bootstrap two new pools, XPRT/USDT and USDT/USDC, with $1000 each using PCOL.

Potential Benefits

1. Increased user activity and acquisition on the Persistence chain

2. The presence of one of the highest volume-generating token class

3. Lesser barrier to entry on Dexter

4. The potential influx of new traders and LPs

5. Opportunity to build LST liquidity against stablecoins

6. Leveraging Dexter's liquidity for liquidations on Nolus and Umee and for optimized trade routes on aggregators like TFM, Skip, and Squid

[Persistence Core-1 Chain Upgrade]

Here are 5 things that v10 Annapurna brings and its benefits👇🏼

1️⃣ Better on-chain monitoring of validator, delegation, IBC, ICA, ICQ, epoch, LSM usage on pSTAKE, and other events ⇒ Resilient Core-1 Infrastructure 🔍

2️⃣ Reduction of block size as per Amulet Security’s Advisory for CometBFT ⇒ Secure Core-1 🔒

3️⃣ Increase ICA timeout ⇒ Enhanced User Experience for on-chain activities like Staking, IBC transfer, using dApps like pSTAKE and Dexter, and more 🤝

4️⃣ Increase max limit for $XPRT governance proposal length ⇒ Simpler governance experience 🗣️

5️⃣ Additional c-value limits on pSTAKE ⇒ Increased security checkpoint for stkTokens 🔐
