# Angles Protocol Angles protocol is part of a transformative DeFi ecosystem designed to enhance economic opportunities on the Sonic Network. With permissionless and composable smart contracts, this protocol delivers a superior user experience while supporting the Sonic Network's mission of decentralization and security. At its core is **anS**, a liquid staking token (LST) specifically designed for staking S tokens on the Sonic Network. Modeled after the robust architecture of oUSD, anS offers: * **Higher Yields:** anS leverages optimized staking strategies to provide greater rewards compared to traditional staking solutions. * **Tighter Peg:** anS maintains a closer peg to the value of S token, ensuring a seamless and predictable user experience. * **Decentralization and Security:** anS utilizes distributed validator technology (DVT) to uphold the Sonic Network’s commitment to decentralization while enhancing security. With its innovative design and proven foundation, anS represents the next step in liquid staking, empowering users to maximize their staking rewards without sacrificing flexibility or network principles. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
