Network Highlight: Tanssi Vault Goes Live on Symbiotic to Power Appchains
At Symbiotic, we are building the foundation for universal staking, where capital can secure not just one network but the entire modular blockchain ecosystem. In our Network Highlight series we explore projects pioneering new models of scalability and security with Symbiotic.

External Rewards Are Now Live
Today, we're excited to announce the next phase: external rewards are now live, directly enabling token-based incentives from networks to stakers and node operators. This represents a significant step towards sustainable shared security for modular blockchain ecosystems.

Collateral Contagion: Modeling Cascading Slashing Across Restaked Networks
This research investigates how slashing events in restaked ecosystems can propagate across networks due to shared validator sets, shared LRT portfolios, and overlapping slashing conditions.

Slashing Insurance Vaults: A New Primitive for Onchain Risk
While slashing events are rare, their impact can be devastating and disproportionately affect smaller participants. Re² and Symbiotic propose a new solution: Slashing Insurance Vaults (SIVs).

Spark + Symbiotic: Native Staking Goes Live
We're excited to announce that Spark, the leading onchain capital accelerator with over $4B deployed across DeFi, has integrated Symbiotic to launch their native staking infrastructure.

Universal Staking: Guarantees, in collaboration with Cap Labs
Cap is a decentralized stablecoin protocol that separates yield generation from risk by using a modular operator layer. Instead of a DAO or treasury generating yield for stablecoin holders, independent agents borrow funds and deploy them into yield strategies, such as arbitrage, market making, or RWAs. These agents aren’t trusted by default, as they must first secure a guarantee from external stakers who lock up capital as a form of performance bond.

Universal Staking: Building Insurance with Symbiotic Primitives
Context Insurance is one of the oldest financial tools in history, but has seen only limited adoption in the crypto ecosystem. Notable examples include Nexus Mutual and Chainproof. We are now entering a phase where traditional finance is increasingly moving onchain. At the same time, more sophisticated infrastructure is enabling new financial use cases, such as identity or reputation-based undercollateralized lending. In parallel, the rise of restaking has introduced new primitives for build

Economic Security for Guarantees
By extending the concept of shared security beyond traditional proof-of-stake consensus, Symbiotic creates a flexible coordination layer where staked assets can underwrite a wide range of use cases.
