Boyco, a liquidity coordination platform built on Berachain’s Royco Protocol, has locked $2.1 billion in pre-launch deposits since integrating Enso’s blockchain automation tools. The figure highlights a growing fix for Layer-1 blockchains’ "cold start" problem: how to bootstrap liquidity without centralized market makers. By letting dApps and liquidity providers (LPs) negotiate incentives onchain, Boyco aims to align supply with ecosystem needs—but skeptics question whether algorithmic coordination can replace human intermediation at scale. New blockchains often struggle to attract liquidity before their dApps go live—a hurdle Berachain sidesteps via Boyco’s incentive markets. Projects define terms (e.g., lockup periods, token rewards), while LPs bid to supply assets. Enso’s infrastructure then automates cross-chain transfers via LayerZero and Stargate, converting complex deployments into one-click “Shortcuts.” To facilitate the transfer of assets across different blockchains, Boyco uses LayerZero and Stargate, two prominent cross-chain interoperability solutions. This integration allows participants in Boyco to move assets like USDC, USDT, DAI, wETH, and wBTC quickly and securely. Additionally, Enso automates the process of depositing liquidity. This automation simplifies complex, multi-step transactions into single actions through Enso Shortcuts. Enso connects with eleven applications set to launch on Berachain, helping route liquidity to the appropriate protocols. This ensures that each dApp receives the necessary funds to begin operations immediately after the mainnet launch. The process of how Boyco operates involves several steps: Applications create Royco Markets, setting transaction parameters and offering incentives.
LPs review and negotiate offers on-chain, deciding to lock funds for specified periods.
Assets are transferred to Berachain using LayerZero and Stargate.
Liquidity is deployed into smart contracts through Enso Shortcuts as soon as the application launches on the mainnet. Connor Howe, Co-founder of Enso, stated, “Enso powering Boyco’s DeFi interactions demonstrates our commitment to enabling the next generation of blockchain ecosystems. By taking care of all the necessary integrations, we’ve saved Boyco hundreds of engineering hours.” Boyco aims to set a new standard in acquiring liquidity for blockchains by focusing on transparency, collaboration, and efficiency. Through Enso Shortcuts, which condense multi-step blockchain operations into single transactions, Boyco enables dApps to receive liquidity effortlessly and function effectively from day one. Final Thoughts The collaboration between Enso and Boyco highlights a significant advancement in addressing liquidity challenges for new blockchains. By leveraging Enso’s infrastructure and Boyco’s innovative approach, Berachain is positioned to facilitate a smoother and more efficient launch for its ecosystem. The achievement of $2.1 billion in total value locked demonstrates strong confidence from liquidity providers and sets a foundation for sustained growth. As more applications integrate with Boyco, the streamlined liquidity provisioning could become a model for other blockchain platforms seeking to enhance their DeFi operations from inception.
