In the latest Liquid Federation update, we reflect on last year’s progress: skyrocketing network activity, rapid TVL growth (~$5B), and exponential adoption. We also preview the exciting new developments coming in 2026, setting the stage for an even more impactful year ahead.



In the coming weeks, the Federation will share a public roadmap outlining new features and upgrades for the near term. These include multi-asset fee payments, settlement with 0-conf, and other improvements aimed at furthering institutional adoption.
