What is Liquid Looping?

Liquid Looping is a DeFi primitive that supercharges staking by “looping” your assets through liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and lending protocols. Instead of a single stake, your deposit is recursively staked—stake, borrow, re-stake, repeat—achieving significantly higher yields with marginally higher risk than direct staking.

How it works

• Deposit your native token (HYPE, USDHL, etc.).

• Mint an LLT to track your position.

• Loop automatically: stake → borrow → re-stake → repeat.

• Accrue value: each loop automatically compounds your exposure.

Why it matters

• Higher yield – outperforms basic (liquid) staking

• Farming multiplier – earn up to 5× points in underlying DeFi protocols

• Full liquidity – swap LLTs anytime

• Extra utility – use LLTs as collateral for leverage or other DeFi strategies

• Hands-off compounding – set it and forget it

In short, Liquid Looping turns plain staking into a self-driving, yield-amplifying engine, while keeping your funds liquid through LLTs.
