Liquity V2 Mainnet Redeployment
Liquity V2’s redeployment marks the culmination of months of rigorous audits and fixes. This week, Cantina researchers are finalizing code submissions, followed by re-audits from ChainSecurity and Dedaub next week. The mainnet launch will enable users to mint BOLD, a stablecoin offering native yield and full redeemability for staked ETH, with interest-free borrowing and a low collateral ratio [Liquity.org]. This upgrade aims to redefine DeFi stability by enhancing Liquity V1’s LUSD stablecoin mechanics [mixbytes.io].

A fix was announced in February 2025, followed by extensive audits to ensure security [TradingView News]. The protocol’s focus on transparency and security has bolstered community trust, setting the stage for this redeployment. Future PlansPost-launch, Liquity aims to expand BOLD’s integration into DeFi ecosystems, offering users more ways to leverage ETH collateral.
