The Liquid Network has officially surpassed $3.27 billion in total value locked (TVL), according to an announcement from the Liquid Federation.
The milestone highlights growing adoption of the Bitcoin sidechain for issuing and settling digital assets.
A pivotal moment for Liquid and Bitcoin
Dr. Adam Back, CEO and Co-Founder of Blockstream, which provides the technical backbone for Liquid, said:
“Surpassing the $3 billion threshold marks a pivotal moment for both Liquid and Bitcoin.
He added that this signals Bitcoin’s evolution…
… into a full-fledged platform for global financial markets.
Trends in asset tokenization
The network’s growth coincides with broader trends in asset tokenization.
In a notable example, BlackRock recently tokenized a $150 billion U.S. Treasury fund.
A report from Security Token Market forecasts the tokenized asset market could reach $30 trillion by 2030.
Governance and key platforms
Launched in 2018, Liquid is governed by more than 80 organizations and supports confidential transactions, atomic swaps, and smart contracts.
One of its key platforms, Blockstream AMP, now handles over $1.8 billion in tokenized private credit along with products like tokenized U.S. Treasury notes and currency instruments.
Future developments and expansions
To support ongoing growth, the Liquid Federation is expanding developer tools and integrations, while also working with regulators across regions.
Upcoming improvements include the mainnet rollout of Simplicity, a new smart contract language.
