With the listing of $STO on Gate.io, this emerging Token will further enter the global investors' field of vision, providing more convenience for participating in the StakeStone ecosystem. Below, we will analyze in detail the characteristics of the $STO Token, the operational mechanism of the StakeStone ecosystem, and its potential investment value.

## What is StakeStone?

StakeStone is a decentralized full-chain liquidity infrastructure protocol designed to address the issue of asset liquidity fragmentation in blockchain networks. It provides flexible staking solutions for mainstream assets such as <a href="/ja/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Ethereum</a> (ETH), <a href="/ja/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Bitcoin</a> (BTC), etc., through Liquid Staking technology, while supporting cross-chain liquidity integration. StakeStone's vision is to become the "UnionPay + Alipay" in the crypto world, providing seamless and efficient liquidity support for multi-chain ecosystems.

Since its launch, StakeStone has made significant progress. As of April 3, 2025, its Total Value Locked (TVL) exceeds $725 million, with over 310,000 users and over 150,000 stakers. This growth is attributed to its partnerships with top-tier capital firms such as Binance Labs, Polychain Capital, and its deep integration with multiple DeFi protocols like <a href="/ja/price/pancakeswap-cake" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">PancakeSwap</a> and KiloEx.

## $STO Token Details

$STO is the native token of the StakeStone ecosystem, carrying multiple functions such as governance, incentives, and value capture. Here are the core features of $STO:

### Details of Issuance and Listing

Token Generation Event (TGE): On April 3, 2025, $STO will be listed on the eighth TGE on the <a href="/ja/web3" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">web3</a> wallet, with a sub_script_ion price of $0.02 per coin, equivalent to $1 million worth of <a href="/ja/price/bnb-bnb" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BNB</a>. The sub_script_ion period is from 16:00 to 16:30 (UTC+8).

Supported by exchanges: In addition to Gate.io, many exchanges have also listed the $STO/USDT trading pair in the Innovation Zone, DeFi Zone, and LSD Zone, demonstrating the market's wide recognition of it.

### Token Functionality

- Governance: $STO holders can participate in ecosystem decision-making through the on-chain proposal mechanism (OPAP), such as adjusting revenue strategies, optimizing liquidity distribution, or choosing to support new blockchain networks. This decentralized governance model ensures community control over project development.

- Incentives: StakeStone rewards participants with $STO, including stakers, liquidity providers, and ecosystem partners. This incentive mechanism not only attracts more users to join, but also drives the rapid expansion of the protocol.

- Value capture: As the income of the StakeStone ecosystem grows (such as staking fees or DeFi integration revenue), some profits may <a href="/ja/price/flow-flow" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">flow</a> back to $STO holders in the form of buybacks or dividends (specific mechanisms to be further disclosed by the official party).


### STO technical support

Based on the LayerZero Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) standard, $STO supports cross-chain bridging and multi-chain circulation. This technological architecture enables it to operate seamlessly on networks such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Linea, Mantle, etc.

## The StakeStone ecosystem is deeply connected to $STO

StakeStone's core product is its Liquidity Pool Tokens, including $STONE, $SBTC, and $STONEBTC, while $STO is key to governing and driving these tokens. Here is the relationship between them:

### $STONE

Definition: Liquidity staking token based on Ethereum, representing staked ETH.

Features: By integrating multiple risk-free consensus layers through an adaptive staking network, it provides stable returns. Users can stake ETH for $STONE, use it in DeFi, and retain staking rewards at the same time.

The relationship with $STO: $STO holders can determine the revenue strategy and liquidity allocation of $STONE through governance.

### $SBTC

Definition: An index-type liquidity BTC asset designed to enhance the availability of custodial BTC derivatives.

Features: Bringing BTC into the DeFi ecosystem through cross-chain technology to enhance its capital efficiency.

Relationship with $STO: The governance function of $STO supports the cross-chain expansion and ecological integration of $SBTC.

### $STONEBTC

Definition: BTC derivative with yield, combining DeFi, CeDeFi, and Real World Asset (RWA) yield strategies.

Features: Provides a sustainable source of income for BTC holders.

Relationship with $STO: The incentive mechanism of $STO drives the adoption and circulation of $STONEBTC.
Simply put, $STONE, $SBTC, and $STONEBTC are the 'product layer' of StakeStone, while $STO is the 'management layer' and 'incentive layer,' together forming a complete liquidity ecosystem.

## Analysis of the investment potential of $STO

The listing of $STO comes at a time of rapid development in liquidity mining and the entire chain ecosystem, making it worth paying attention to its investment potential:

### Market performance and attention

$STO quickly landed on mainstream exchanges such as Gate.io and Bitget after TGE, demonstrating strong community support and market enthusiasm. The listing of the $STO/USDT trading pair further lowers the investment threshold.

### The driving force of ecological growth

StakeStone's TVL has grown from zero to $725 million in just 542 days, a pace that demonstrates the strong vitality of its ecosystem. $STO, as the governance token, will directly benefit from the expansion of the ecosystem.

### Industry trends blessing

With the popularity of Layer 2 networks (such as Arbitrum, <a href="/ja/price/optimism-op" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Optimism</a>) and cross-chain technologies (such as LayerZero), the demand for liquidity staking has surged. StakeStone's full-chain strategy puts it at the forefront of this trend, with $STO being a key entry point to participate in this dividend.

**Risk Warning** Despite the promising outlook, $STO still faces the inherent volatility of the <a href="/ja/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a>. In addition, its token economic model has not been fully disclosed, and investors need to pay attention to future distribution details and inflation mechanisms.

## Summary

The $STO token is the core pillar of StakeStone's full-chain liquidity ecosystem, and with its governance functions, incentive mechanisms, and cross-chain technology, it is becoming a rising star in the liquidity staking field. The listing on Gate.io marks the first step of $STO towards a broader market, providing investors with an excellent opportunity to participate in this innovative project. For investors focusing on DeFi, full-chain ecosystems, and liquidity staking, $STO is not only an investment target but also a key to the infrastructure of the crypto future.

Before participating, it is recommended to closely follow the updates on the StakeStone official website and white paper, and make wise decisions based on market dynamics. The journey of $STO has just begun, and its potential is worth looking forward to!
