Following a breakout first half of the year, Lista DAO is doubling down on its mission to build the most comprehensive DeFi infrastructure on BNB Chain. In the first six months of 2025, Lista DAO achieved several major milestones that laid the groundwork for its future trajectory. The successful launch of Lista Lending, a next-generation vault-based lending protocol, introduced adaptive interest rates and flexible market creation, quickly attracting capital and builders alike. As of June, total value locked (TVL) had surged past $2.85 billion, Lista Lending’s TVL surpassed $1B TVL in just a few short months, and at the same time Lista DAO has become the largest on-chain liquidity hub for USD1 of over 80M USD1, reflecting strong demand and trust in Lista DAO’s ecosystem.
Strategic partnerships were key to this momentum. Lista DAO joined forces with World Liberty Financial (WLFI) to support USD1, a composable stablecoin designed to bridge real-world payments and on-chain utility. This relationship positioned Lista DAO as the largest on-chain hub for USD1, with more than $80 million in USD1 already flowing through its lending infrastructure securing Lista DAO’s top spot on-chain.
USD1 is not just another stablecoin. USD1 is engineered for cross-border payments and real-world business utility, while remaining composable within DeFi protocols. Lista DAO recognized its potential early and positioned itself as the DeFi engine behind it.
Key Lista DAO initiatives for for H2 include:
- USD1 TVL Growth: As the largest USD1 TVL protocol, Lista DAO plans to integrate new vault suppliers, strategic integrations, and ecosystem initiatives.
- RWA-Powered Yield: Launching a USD1-based yield-bearing stablecoin backed by U.S. Treasuries and corporate bonds, giving users weekly yield redemptions and real-world exposure.
Roadmap beyond USD1
While USD1 remains a central focus, Lista DAO’s H2 roadmap is holistic:
- PancakeSwap CDP Launch: Unlocking LP token liquidity for lisUSD minting with robust valuation and risk management.
- lisUSD Expansion: Targeting lisUSD minting to 80M, a 26.6% increase in lisUSD supply, boosted by LP-based minting and yield-bearing stablecoin incentives
- Fluid-like DEX: A unique AMM-lending hybrid to convert collateral into LP positions and optimize capital use.
- Lista DAO CDP Expansion: To offer fixed-rate and fixed-term lending products. A Look at the BNB Ecosystem
Momentum across the BNB ecosystem is accelerating. Institutional signals like Windtree Therapeutics’ commitment of up to $700M for $BNB acquisitions to enhance their cryptocurrency treasury strategy underscore a growing confidence in $BNB as a strategic asset. This influx of interest reflects a broader trend of real-world capital and use cases shifting onchain. Lista DAO anticipates this wave and is positioning itself at the forefront with infrastructure built for capital efficiency, composability, and sustainable yield.
The Road Ahead
To start of Q3, Lista DAO is leading the USD1 pact. By anchoring USD1 at the center of a rapidly growing, capital-efficiency centric DeFi ecosystem, Lista DAO is creating the foundation for stablecoin utility that extends beyond speculation. As part of their H2 roadmap, Lista DAO has already put in place a proposal for PancakeSwap LP integrations in its CDP.
Be it through RWA-backed stablecoins or institutional-grade lending infrastructure, Lista DAO is setting a new standard on BNB Chain. Backed by a strong first half and a forward-looking roadmap for H2, one thing is clear: Lista DAO isn’t just building a DeFi protocol. It’s shaping the future of on-chain finance, something that institutions, users, and builders should be excited about.
