ClayStack

ClayStack is a liquid staking platform for cryptocurrency that allows users to stake assets, mint staking derivatives, and participate in decentralized finance. The platform enables users to stake their cryptocurrency holdings while receiving liquid staking tokens in return, which can be used across DeFi protocols to generate additional yield. ClayStack's features include yield stacking capabilities, staking derivatives backed by staked assets, transaction tracking, and on-chain trackable reserves and vaults that provide transparency into the backing of all minted derivatives. By issuing liquid staking tokens representing staked assets, ClayStack solves the liquidity problem inherent in traditional staking, where assets are locked and inaccessible during the staking period. Users can simultaneously earn staking rewards while deploying their liquid staking tokens in other DeFi activities such as lending, trading, or providing liquidity. The platform operates on blockchain infrastructure, ensuring that all staking, minting, and reserve operations are verifiable on-chain. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Singapore, the company has raised $5.2M in seed funding from investors including CoinFund, ParaFi, Animoca Brands, LedgerPrime, Genblock Capital, ventures.coinbase.com, and The LAO. The team comprises 11 employees as of March 2026.
