Hypha, operating as GoGoPool, is a premier liquid staking protocol built natively on the high-performance Avalanche blockchain. It offers a streamlined and highly accessible solution for users to stake their AVAX tokens, thereby contributing to the network's security and earning staking rewards.
Critically, in return for their staked AVAX, users receive a liquid staking token (LSD), which retains its value and can be seamlessly utilized across the broader Avalanche DeFi ecosystem. Its innovative "minipools" feature significantly lowers the barrier to entry for staking, democratizing participation in network validation.
Mission
It aims to empower a wider range of AVAX holders to participate in staking, ensuring that their assets remain productive and composable within DeFi, rather than being idly locked.
Hypha's mission is fundamentally to unlock both liquidity and capital efficiency within the Avalanche staking ecosystem while simultaneously bolstering the network's decentralization.
Problem Solved
Hypha elegantly solves this by issuing a liquid staking derivative, which allows users to earn continuous staking rewards and simultaneously deploy their capital in other DeFi protocols for additional yield, trading, or collateral. It also simplifies the technical complexities often associated with running a full validator node, making staking more accessible.
A core problem in traditional Proof-of-Stake (PoS) staking is the illiquidity of staked assets; once locked, they cannot be used for other financial activities. This limits capital efficiency and discourages broader participation.
Impact
Hypha has successfully established itself as a cornerstone of the Avalanche DeFi ecosystem, significantly empowering wider validator participation and injecting critical liquidity into the network. By making staking more accessible and liquid, it has not only enhanced DeFi composability—allowing staked assets to be used across various protocols—but has also demonstrably improved overall user returns. This success highlights the substantial demand for intuitive, secure, and capital-efficient liquid staking solutions in the decentralized finance landscape.
