Staking Letter #9: A Simple Guide to Understanding FIS Burn and Treasury
StaFi Chain has recently activated and launched its FIS burn mechanism. While we will see the specific amount of the first FIS burn in about thirty days, the community's focus has primarily been on the results rather than understanding the mechanism itself, leading to many misconceptions. This letter aims to briefly explain the FIS burn mechanism and treasury FIS operations based on the burn proposal mechanism.FIS Burn Proposal: proposals.stafi.io/proposal/sip11/StaFi Node v0.6.3: github...

Staking Letter #19: Introducing the Liquid Staking Vault (LSV)
IntroductionAt StaFi, weβve been pioneering Liquid Staking as a Service (LSaaS) to bring liquidity to PoS tokens. Today, we want to introduce a brand new idea which is the new infrastructure module designed specifically for non-PoS tokens, dApps, and appchains:Liquid Staking Vault (LSV) = Staking Vault + Liquid Staking TokenUnlike traditional LST protocols designed around PoS consensus mechanisms, the LSV framework is built entirely at the contract layer β enabling any project, including non-...

Staking Letter #21: RWA Tokenization Integrated into the LSaaS Stack
The RWA TrendReal World Asset (RWA) tokenization is rapidly becoming one of the most compelling trends in blockchain. As of mid-2025, over $8 billion worth of RWAsβranging from U.S. Treasury bonds, gold, to real estateβhave already been tokenized and deployed across major chains like Ethereum, Polygon, and Solana (source: rwa.xyz, 2025 Q2 report). This growth is not just speculative; it reflects a structural shift. By putting RWAs on-chain, blockchain infrastructure enables greater liquidity,...

The emergence of ChatGPT has brought AI back into the spotlight, and integrating Crypto with AI has become a hot research topic. StaFi is exploring how AI can be applied to select validators from a staking perspective.
In Proof-of-Stake (PoS) networks, validators play a crucial role. For stakers, choosing which validator to delegate their tokens to is important because it affects several factors:
Decentralization: The more distributed the validators in a PoS network, the higher the level of decentralization, making the network more secure.
Staking Rewards: The performance and commission fees of validators directly impact the rewards for stakers.
In SSV integration, selecting operators is similar to choosing validators but with more dynamism. DVT allows multiple nodes to run an operator, and if a node misses three consecutive slots for attestation and becomes inactive, it needs to be replaced to avoid penalties. Therefore, dynamic switching is necessary when validator or node operator parameters change.
In SSV integration, the selection of node operators considers their performance, fees, and status. More details can be found at SSV Proposal.
Regarding models, current GPT models primarily focus on processing natural language or other modal information to generate corresponding outputs, with inference relying on prompt engineering. This differs from the smart delegation algorithm, which ranks and selects validators based on weighted performance indicators.
Using GPT for this process involves inputting validator performance data into GPT and using prompts to instruct GPT to perform logical reasoning. We have tested models like GPT-4, Claude 3.5, and Llama 3 70B, with Gemini 2 currently under testing.
prompt example
You are an expert in blockchain networks, particularly the Cosmos ecosystem.
Your task is to analyze the provided data and select the suitable validators for delegating stakes in the Cosmos network.
Consider the following criteria:
1. Commission rate and stability
2. Uptime and reliability
3. Voting participation in governance
4. Self-bonded stake amount
5. Total stake and voting power
6. Decentralization contribution
Remember to prioritize a balanced selection that promotes network health, security, and decentralization while also considering potential returns for delegators.
