Mitosis Expedition & MITO Points: Initializing Multi-Chain DeFi Through Liquid Restaking.

As DeFi evolves, Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs) are quickly becoming the next major primitive. But for them to realize their full potential, they must go multi-chain and that’s exactly where Mitosis Expedition comes in.

What is Expedition?

Expedition is Mitosis campaign to deploy LRT liquidity across multiple chains, starting with Ethereum and Layer 2s like Arbitrum and Linea. It’s a testbed for Mitosis’ cross-chain capabilities and a user-friendly onramp to its Ecosystem-Owned Liquidity model. When you participate in Expedition, you’re not just farming yield you’re helping build the foundation for a unified, programmable liquidity layer that supports LRTs across the entire DeFi stack.

How It Works 1. Deposit: Users deposit LRTs like weETH into Expedition Vaults across supported chains. 2. Receive: In return, they receive miAssets (e.g., miweETH), which represent their liquidity share. 3. Earn: By holding miAssets, users begin accumulating MITO Points, the campaign’s reward metric. 4. Redeem: Users can burn miAssets to reclaim the original LRTs. 5. Migrate: Once Mitosis L1 is live, users will be able to migrate their assets and continue participating on the mainnet.

What Are MITO Points?

MITO Points are the Expedition native rewards system, used to measure participation and activity. They serve as the core metric for: -$MITO Airdrop Eligibility -Campaign-specific incentives -Future utility in governance or protocol perks Each Expedition earns its own MITO Point type, depending on the asset used. For example: MITO Point (weETH) MITO Point (abcETH) MITO Point (xyzETH) This design ensures that users who support earlier or more strategic assets are rewarded accordingly.

Why Expedition Matters -Self funded Cross-Chain Liquidity: Vital for LRTs and multi-chain yield farming. -Tests Protocol Mechanics: Including vault behavior, settlement, and miAsset issuance. -Distributes Ownership: Via MITO Points, early users get a stake in the future of Mitosis. -Onboards Capital for EOL: All Expedition liquidity feeds into the broader Mitosis ecosystem.

Final Thoughts Mitosis Expedition isn’t just a campaign it’s a cross chain liquidity strategy at scale. It combines yield opportunities, programmable tokens, and community ownership into one integrated experience. With MITO Points, Mitosis sets up a fair and transparent path toward ecosystem ownership, giving early contributors meaningful upside in a protocol designed for the next generation of DeFi.
