Stride Labs

Stride Labs is a New York-based software and blockchain company that developed the Stride protocol, a multichain liquid staking platform designed for the Cosmos ecosystem.

The Stride protocol serves as a layer-1 zone, enabling users to earn staking rewards while maintaining liquidity for their staked assets in decentralized finance (DeFi). Founded in 2022, Stride Labs focuses on cross-chain liquid staking for IBC-enabled Cosmos assets. Its offerings include a decentralized, open-source network for liquid staking, as well as liquid staking tokens like stATOM. The company supports a variety of tokens, including ATOM, OSMO, and LUNA, and provides infrastructure that allows users to keep their tokens liquid while staking them. Stride Labs also facilitates bridging support for the Celestia rollup ecosystem through its Hyperlane bridge deployment.
