{"id":"block-street","title":"Block Street","content":"**Block Street** is a [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) infrastructure project focused on building a unified liquidity and execution layer for tokenized capital markets. The project’s stated aim is to aggregate fragmented liquidity for tokenized equities and related [real‑world assets](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas) (RWAs) across issuers and chains, and to provide institutional‑grade execution via an off‑chain request‑for‑quote (RFQ) system paired with on‑chain settlement. [\\[1\\]](#cite-id-TDhr50UdD826ciLs) [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-7dx40jrf6oZLmmR5)​\n\n## Overview\n\nBlock Street is a [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) infrastructure project focused on supporting the trading, lending, and financial applications of tokenized stocks and other [real-world assets](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas). Founded in 2024 by [Hedy Wong](https://iq.wiki/wiki/hedy-wong) and [Mike Wu](https://iq.wiki/wiki/mike-wu), the platform aims to address fragmentation in tokenized equity markets by providing tools for liquidity aggregation, execution, and lending. Its infrastructure is built around two main components: Aqua, a liquidity and execution layer that aggregates quotes from tokenized asset issuers and market makers, and Everst, a decentralized lending protocol designed specifically for tokenized equities. Block Street has focused on building systems that allow users to trade tokenized stocks, use them as [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral), and access [DeFi](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi)-style financial products while maintaining on-chain settlement and transparency.\n\nAqua uses a request-for-quote (RFQ) model to collect pricing from multiple [liquidity providers](https://iq.wiki/wiki/liquidity-providers), compare available offers, and execute trades through [smart contracts](https://iq.wiki/wiki/smart-contract). Everst provides lending markets where users can supply tokenized stocks to earn yield or borrow against their holdings through overcollateralized pools, using price [oracles](https://iq.wiki/wiki/oracle), [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral) factors, and [liquidation](https://iq.wiki/wiki/liquidation) mechanisms to manage risk. The platform initially launched on the [Monad](https://iq.wiki/wiki/monad) [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) and expanded to other [EVM](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm)-compatible networks. In October 2025, Block Street announced an $11.5 million funding round from investors including [Hack VC](https://iq.wiki/wiki/hack-vc) and [DWF Labs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/dwf-labs) to support development, integrations with [tokenization](https://iq.wiki/wiki/tokenization) providers, and expansion of its infrastructure. [\\[1\\]](#cite-id-TDhr50UdD826ciLs) [\\[9\\]](#cite-id-NrNMS7Cz3a3nLiYq) \n\n## Technology\n\n### Aqua\n\nAqua is Block Street's liquidity and execution layer for tokenized stocks and other [real-world assets](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas), designed to connect multiple issuers, market makers, and [liquidity providers](https://iq.wiki/wiki/liquidity-providers) through a unified trading infrastructure rather than operating as a standalone exchange. Using a request-for-quote (RFQ) model combined with WebSocket connectivity, Aqua aggregates quotes from integrated liquidity sources and routes orders to the provider offering the best available execution. The platform is designed to reduce market fragmentation by improving price discovery while allowing users to retain custody of their assets. Its architecture combines off-chain quote aggregation with on-chain smart contract verification and settlement, enabling transparent execution across multiple providers.\n\nAqua is built with several infrastructure layers, including unified liquidity aggregation, risk management, trading applications, and integrations with external [DeFi](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi) protocols. The protocol supports cross-chain connectivity across [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum), [BNB Chain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/binance-smart-chain), and [Base](https://iq.wiki/wiki/base), while incorporating tools such as cross-protocol [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral) management, dynamic risk monitoring, and institutional-grade APIs for low-latency trading. On-chain components manage token registries, issuer registries, and trade execution through issuer-specific [smart contracts](https://iq.wiki/wiki/smart-contract), while off-chain systems coordinate price aggregation and routing. Together, these components are intended to provide a common liquidity network for tokenized assets while supporting interoperability across multiple [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) ecosystems. [\\[10\\]](#cite-id-aJ3OHZX3QLTzRZF9) [\\[11\\]](#cite-id-NcNDgwCPiAbLouyZ) \n\n### Everst Protocol\n\nEverst is Block Street's decentralized lending and leverage protocol for tokenized stocks, designed to let users supply tokenized equities and [stablecoins](https://iq.wiki/wiki/stablecoin), earn yield, borrow against their holdings, and access leveraged positions without relying on traditional financial intermediaries. Built on a pooled lending model, the protocol issues interest-bearing receipt tokens (BTokens) that represent users' deposits and dynamically adjusts borrowing and lending rates based on market utilization. Loans are overcollateralized and monitored through real-time health factors, with automated liquidation mechanisms to protect [liquidity pools](https://iq.wiki/wiki/liquidity-pool) when [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral) values decline. Everst also supports continuous trading outside traditional market hours and is intended to improve capital efficiency by allowing tokenized stock positions to be reused across decentralized finance applications.\n\nTo manage risk, Everst incorporates multiple security mechanisms, including asset-specific [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral) requirements, real-time health factor calculations, dynamic interest rate models, and price data from multiple [oracle](https://iq.wiki/wiki/oracle) providers such as [Chainlink](https://iq.wiki/wiki/chainlink) and [Pyth](https://iq.wiki/wiki/pyth-network). Its architecture consists of modular [smart contracts](https://iq.wiki/wiki/smart-contract) that manage lending pools, interest calculations, price feeds, and protocol governance, while additional safeguards such as supply and borrow caps, emergency pause functionality, multi-signature administration, and timelocks are designed to enhance protocol security. Together with Block Street's Aqua liquidity network, Everst forms the lending and leverage layer of the platform, providing infrastructure for borrowing, lending, and liquidity management within tokenized equity markets. [\\[12\\]](#cite-id-zDhvmnQyslTp7eIY) [\\[13\\]](#cite-id-oKYvkCdia8snJPar) \n\n## BSB\n\nBSB is the native [utility](https://iq.wiki/wiki/utility-token) and [governance token](https://iq.wiki/wiki/governance-tokens) of the Block Street ecosystem. It is designed to support protocol governance, enabling token holders to participate in decisions about platform parameters and asset listings as governance becomes more decentralized. The token is also intended for [staking](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking), providing access to membership tiers, fee discounts, and ecosystem incentives, while serving as [collateral](https://iq.wiki/wiki/collateral) and supporting liquidity- and auction-related protocol mechanisms. [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-7dx40jrf6oZLmmR5) [\\[3\\]](#cite-id-NdXJXxnted7LyV50) \n\n### Tokenomics\n\nBSB has a total supply of 1B tokens and has the following distribution: [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-7dx40jrf6oZLmmR5) [\\[3\\]](#cite-id-NdXJXxnted7LyV50) \n\n* **Community & User Incentives**: 22.10%\n* **Ecosystem Partners**: 20.60%\n* **Team & Advisors**: 17.30%\n* **Core Investors**: 15.70%\n* **Exchanges & Marketing**: 10.65%\n* **Treasury**: 5.65%\n* **Liquidity**: 5.00%\n* **Strategic Investors**: 3.00%\n\n### BSB Staking\n\nBSB Staking is Block Street's governance [staking](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking) system, allowing users to lock BSB tokens in a shared [staking](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking) pool until a single global unlock date while participating in governance and reward distribution. Voting power increases over time, growing from 1× at the start of staking to a maximum of 4× after one year, encouraging longer-term participation. Eligible participants meeting the minimum [staking](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking) threshold can submit governance proposals, while Block Street determines which proposals are included in each voting epoch and sets the corresponding reward allocation. Rewards are distributed to users who participate in voting, regardless of whether they vote for or against a proposal, with each participant's reward determined by their highest voting weight during that epoch. Staked tokens and accrued rewards become claimable only after the global unlock date, making the system primarily a governance participation mechanism rather than a source of continuous passive token emissions.
