Open-source protocol · developed by MC²Fi

Liquid yield for
vote-escrowed positions.

MC²Fi builds the Liquid Locker protocol and deploys it on-chain. The contracts run autonomously and permissionlessly — MC²Fi never takes custody of assets and is not a counterparty to any position.

Alpha — unaudited software

The Liquid Locker protocol is live in alpha on Monad and Base and has not been audited. The Base (Hydrex) deployment holds our own capital only and is not open to public deposits. Positions are permanently locked and non-redeemable — holders exit by selling on the secondary market. Yields are produced by the protocol on-chain; they are variable and are not guaranteed by MC²Fi.

The compounding edge

The highest yield on a locked position.

Savings technology for ve-positions

Vote-escrowed locks earn real protocol revenue. The Liquid Locker contracts compound it automatically on-chain, so the effective rate compounds far beyond a manual stake.

Protocol auto-compound i
veDUST, manual i
DeFi lending~12%
Liquid staking~3.8%

The headline rate is the current veDUST reward rate read on-chain and annualised as a linear APR (not compounded); rates above 999% are shown as “999%+”. A trailing estimate derived from Neverland protocol revenue (DefiLlama) is used only as a fallback — it divides revenue by the current veDUST value (voting power × DUST price), so it overstates the rate sharply while the DUST price is depressed. The auto-compound figure is an APY; the manual figure is a simple APR — the gap is the compounding edge, not extra emissions. Yields are variable, not guaranteed, and depend on protocol revenue, the DUST price and lock conditions — past performance does not predict future results. External benchmarks (lending, liquid staking) are illustrative. Liquid Locker is alpha, unaudited software and positions are non-redeemable. Not financial advice.

Built for the fastest, most hands-off yield.

Highest effective rate

Auto-compounding turns weekly USDC revenue into a far higher effective APY than holding or staking by hand.

NAV designed to compound

Compound, buyback-burn and premium-capture are each accretive to DUST backing per token by construction. USD value still moves with the DUST price.

Globally accessible

One liquid ERC-20, bridgeable anywhere. An adapter per protocol means new veNFTs in ~50 lines.

Where it runs

One vault. Every ve-protocol.

A thin adapter (~50 lines) plugs each ve-protocol into the same core — two are deployed and live today, on Monad and Base. We prioritise which adapters to build by revenue durability, lock mechanics and liquidity — our own engineering assessment, not a rating agency's, and not investment advice.

Liquidity

Getting in, and getting out.

The vault is non-redeemable by design — the underlying veNFT is locked permanently so it can never be drained. Your liquidity is the wrapper token, not the lock.

How you get in

  1. Buy llDUST on the DEX at the market price, or — at launch — deposit a veDUST NFT and mint llDUST 1:1 against its locked DUST.
  2. Hold. Each weekly epoch claims Neverland's USDC revenue and compounds it, so the DUST backing per llDUST rises.
  3. Use llDUST anywhere — it's a standard ERC-20, bridgeable to other chains.

No deposit fee. The contracts route 10% of claimed revenue to the protocol treasury, by construction — applied on-chain to claimed revenue only.

How you get out

  1. Sell llDUST on the secondary market (DEX) for USDC or DUST, whenever you want. There is no unlock wait for the holder.
  2. The underlying veNFT is never unlocked or redeemed — that's what keeps the backing intact for everyone.
  3. If llDUST trades below NAV, the vault routes that week's revenue into buying llDUST back and burning it — scaling up to 100% of yield the deeper the discount — to push the price back toward backing.

Your exit price depends on secondary-market liquidity and can sit below NAV. Directing all yield to buybacks below NAV supports the price but does not guarantee a peg.

Security

Is it ruggable?

Straight answer: it's alpha, unaudited software, so smart-contract risk is real. Here's exactly what the deployed contracts do and do not permit — including the one privileged keeper role.

Alpha · unaudited · not yet multisig

The contracts have not been through a formal audit. Today the keeper key is a single signer; a multisig is planned for public launch. Interact only with value you can afford to lose, and verify every address on-chain yourself.

What the contracts forbid

  • Mint llDUST outside the capped epoch logic (max 3% of supply, 2-epoch cooldown, only above 110% premium)
  • Move or withdraw the locked DUST / veNFT — it is permanently locked
  • Set NAV by hand — NAV is read from on-chain locked balance ÷ supply
  • Touch the core operational tokens (underlying, USDC, llDUST) via rescue
  • Bypass swap slippage limits or the TWAP-deviation guard

What the keeper key can do

  • Trigger the weekly epoch (claim → assess → compound), within guardrails
  • Set modules, swap router and keeper address (Ownable2Step)
  • Pause the vault as a circuit breaker
  • Rescue stray non-core tokens sent to the contract

Keeper guardrails

  • Every swap enforces a minimum output (amountOutMinimum)
  • minPerUsdc checked against a reference rate (±10%)
  • Epoch auto-pauses if TWAP deviates >30% from NAV

Oracle & price

  • 1-hour TWAP, not spot — flash-loan resistant
  • Currently a V2 DUST/USDC pool; migrating to the Balancer pool as soon as it is live
  • Minimum observation count before a TWAP is treated as valid

A dedicated rug-resistance write-up is in progress in the docs. Until an audit is complete, treat this as experimental.
