Dear Endur fam, The Monetary Council intends to remove LBTC from the Starknet's BTC staking program. The proposal is adoption-based, not related to any security or audit issue. As noted in the Starknet community forum, continued staking-reward eligibility for LBTC is not justified at current levels of adoption and ecosystem integration. What this means for xLBTC holders if it goes through after the comment period: • LBTC remains a valid asset. the underlying is unaffected. • Staking rewards would stop accruing. xLBTC's exchange rate against LBTC would stop appreciating. • Positions would not be forcibly unstaked. At this stage, staking on Endur remains live and will be disabled once the proposal goes live... our purpose it to inform users about the proposed change and the actions we would take if its finalized. If you hold xLBTC and prefer to exit, redemptions remain available at app.endur.fi. xWBTC, xtBTC, xsBTC, and xstrkBTC continue to earn normally.

Liquid staking yield depends on one operational variable: validator performance. A single missed attestation in Phase 2 costs every delegator under that validator the entire epoch's reward. So we publish how our curated set is performing.

Endur snapshot, epoch 10,475: STRK delegated: 118,015,028 (~8.5% of all STRK staked on Starknet) BTC delegated: 63.28 (~9% of all BTC staked on Starknet) Validator set: Karnot · Twinstake · Unwrap Labs Lead validator: Karnot

Bitcoin's missing layer was privacy. Three prior privacy attempts hit the same structural wall. Starknet's strkBTC moves the property one layer deeper, and xstrkBTC is the first LST to inherit it. Full analysis ↓
