Staking has always been a trade-off: yield OR liquidity.
@Kintsu on Monad said "both" → stake MON, get sMON, keep playing the market while your bag compounds.
The best DeFi products remove choices, not add them )
Most people stake MON and forget about it
That's idle capital.
@Kintsu turns it into a working asset → stake MON, get sMON:
One token. Yield + liquidity + a vote.
Idle MON is dead MON )
SuperMON vault is paused (withdrawals open), but the sMON ecosystem still covers the full spectrum ranked worst to best
1) LP sMON/MON -0 fees + yield + points, minimal IL
2) Loop + farm Kintsu Points — max yield, leveraged KSU farming, high risk
Sweet spot for most

Details in DM.
Got a negative MEXC account?
You can get part of your lost funds back.
Quick update on the recent TVL drop.
The drop was driven by Qualia, one of the biggest depositors and a curator in the SuperMON vault, deciding to move away from Monad entirely, which impacted our TVL.
We wanted to address this directly so the community has clear context on the change.
Kintsu remains live, active, and committed to building on Monad.
We will share further information on the SuperMON vault as soon as we have a clear plan of action.

For stakers:
The era of “deposit and forget” might be ending.
@Kintsu is starting to differentiate itself on MONAD

Decentralization isn’t ideology. It’s a trait of a network that enshrines competition to create an equal playing field. AI plays an interesting role in our new world.
But first, it’s important to understand that there’s a difference between companies and networks.
- Companies exist for direction, asymmetric bets, and executive function.
- Networks exist to create open competition around clearly defined objectives with transparent incentives.
You can get it wrong both ways.
Force a network to behave like a company and you concentrate power.
Force a company to behave like a network and you get paralysis.
AI is a powerful new tool in this conversation. It lowers the cost of high-quality participation. It can help people process information, express preferences, and even act as representatives.
But AI doesn’t fix structural mistakes.
You still have to define what belongs inside a competitive system and what requires specific leadership.
In @Kintsu, we decentralized a specific, well-defined function: validator weight selection.
- Kintsu Representatives compete to curate the best validators.
- Validators compete to generate the most yield on @monad for the Kintsu network, compounded into the sMON LST
- KSU stakers allocate stake by choosing the best representatives.
APY becomes the scoreboard.
The objective is clear. The incentives are visible. The feedback loop is tight.
That’s structured competition.
An AI could absolutely sit in the representative seat. If it selects validators well, it attracts stake. If it underperforms, stake leaves. Human, machine, or somewhere in between, the mechanism enforces accountability.
Not everything should be decentralized.
Strategy, capital allocation, and product direction often require executive function.
But when the objective is well defined and incentive-aligned, decentralization scales better than central control.
In many ways, Kintsu is us disrupting ourselves. We could keep stake delegation centralized. That would be simpler. But we would rather own a smaller piece of a much larger, credibly neutral network than control something that becomes a risk to the chain at scale.
AI can complement representative democracy.
Structure determines whether competition strengthens a network or just automates its flaws.
Building your dream takes hard work and capital to fund it.
If you had one shot. One opportunity. Would you let it slip? No. You’d build it on a chain that will support your vision.
