Hydro LST

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.

Liquidity on hydro-protocol

If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.

A further 97,1 mil US$ sits in the protocol's native staking modules — these deposits are typically locked, vote-bonded, or earning a share of fees, and they reduce the freely circulating float that can hit the market.

Market cap and supply figures are sourced from DeFiLlama's price feed (which reconciles CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and on-chain DEX prices). Treasury and staking values reflect on-chain balances controlled by the protocol at last sync.

Hydro LST is published as a versioned release inside the Hydro protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Hydro LST is a Liquid Staking protocol that issues liquid receipt tokens against staked deposits, so users earn validator rewards without locking up the underlying asset. It is deployed on Injective. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Hydro LST is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Injective — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Injective, Injective-staking, staking), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts.

Hydro LST is one of 7 Liquid Staking protocols Mantapex tracks in this category. Direct peers ranked by total value locked include Lido, Binance staked ETH, Rocket Pool, and 3 more. These peer protocols collectively secure 35 mil M US$ in deposits, giving you a frame of reference for whether Hydro LST's own TVL is at the top, middle, or tail of the category.
