Description
Quicksilver provides liquid staking for Cosmos SDK-based and IBC-connected chains. The protocol delegates users’ assets to validators on remote chains and issues transferable qAssets that represent the staked positions, enabling users to retain staking rewards while accessing DeFi liquidity. Quicksilver also supports validator preference signaling, automated reward compounding, governance, interchain accounts, and QCK token utility. The supplied app content states that the protocol is being wound down following an exploit and that core user interactions are disabled while a redemption route is prepared.Open Roles
