sBOLD Launch

sBOLD transforms $BOLD deposits into a versatile asset that auto-compounds yield and integrates across DeFi platforms and money markets. Built by K3 Capital, it’s part of Liquity V2, a decentralized protocol for borrowing BOLD, an overcollateralized stablecoin backed by ETH and liquid staking tokens like wstETH. Audited by ChainSecurity and Dedaub (report dated May 13, 2025), sBOLD also offers rewards exposure to 16+ friendly forks, making it a game-changer for yield seekers (Liquity Protocol, X post 1930292968105165003; K3 Capital GitBook).  

Recent News

Liquity V2 has been gaining traction since its revamp, introducing separate Stability Pools per borrow market (e.g., WETH, Lido’s wstETH) for better risk management. In May 2025, K3 Capital released sBOLD’s full codebase and audit reports, emphasizing transparency and security—a move praised by the community for building trust (K3 Capital, X post 1930290612835663903).  

Future Plans

Liquity aims to expand sBOLD’s utility across more DeFi ecosystems, with plans to integrate with additional money markets and lending protocols. The roadmap hints at new borrow markets and enhanced liquidation mechanisms to further stabilize BOLD’s peg, potentially attracting more institutional users (Liquity.org).  

Onchain Data

While specific sBOLD staking metrics aren’t yet available (it launched two days ago), Liquity’s Stability Pools historically see high activity. Dune Analytics shows Liquity V1’s pools managed over $50M in deposits in Q1 2025, suggesting strong potential for sBOLD adoption (Dune.com).  

Community Sentiment

X is buzzing with excitement! Users like @AngelaMart93617 highlight sBOLD’s yield potential, while influencers like @OwenTurnertrade are sharing insights on its DeFi integrations. The sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many calling it a “must-watch” for 2025 (X posts 1930297563422290303).  

Market Insight

With DeFi yields trending lower (avg. 5-7% APY per DeFi Pulse), sBOLD’s auto-compounding feature could set a new standard, especially as competitors like Aave and Compound explore similar liquid staking innovations.
