What is better, DApp or Stake? With liquid staking, you don’t have to choose

After confirming five of the initial projects, Occupy made history last summer. parachain slotsKusama’s canary network. Disparate blockchains that bolt onto Polkadot’s main Relay Chain for security, yet are otherwise independent, parachains represent a new way of doing business in blockchain, a maximalist vision aimed at enhancing scalability and governance while permitting the possibility of forkless upgrades. Five projects were selected: Karura (Moonriver), Shiden Khala and Bifrost.

Now, the parachains that were the first to go off are due to expire. They will release over 1,000,000 Kusama(KSM) tokens onto the marketplace. Given that KSM’s current supply is 9 million, basic economics dictates that the price will suffer, as tokens that were previously inaccessible will suddenly reenter circulation. Price fluctuations, of course, affect staking and liquid staking — though the latter innovation allows users to utilize their tokens even when they’re locked.
