Sky announced it is currently building Laniakea, aiming to create institutional-grade on-chain capital allocation infrastructure

AIMPACT Update — April 28 (UTC+8)

Sky announced that it is building Laniakea, a standardized infrastructure framework for deploying institutional-grade capital, for its Sky Agent Network. Currently, Sky Protocol manages a circulating supply of more than $11 billion USDS and earns returns through strategies such as DeFi lending and borrowing, private credit, and compliant real-world assets. As the underlying infrastructure, Laniakea will improve the scalability and efficiency of capital allocation, further advancing on-chain finance toward the institutional level. The project is designed to address the issue of more than $300 billion in stablecoin capital sitting idle due to the lack of unified infrastructure.

Laniakea will achieve standardization across four dimensions: smart contracts, risk and governance, data infrastructure, and legal compliance—so that new capital products do not need to rebuild the underlying framework repeatedly, enabling modular scaling and large-scale deployment. At the same time, through a unified risk measurement and loss-layering mechanism, it ensures risks are transparent and responsibilities are clearly defined. Under this framework, Sky Agents (Primes) will develop investment strategies and compete for capital allocation based on unified standards, while the specific products (Halos) rely on shared infrastructure to launch quickly.

Laniakea will also encode the protocol’s operating state in a machine-readable way to provide a foundation for AI-driven real-time risk control and capital routing. As the capital scale expands and returns improve, Sky expects to strengthen SKY token value capture through buybacks and staking mechanisms.
