 ### Why do I get less ankrFLOW for my 1 FLOW?
 
-ankrFLOW only changes in value, which is why the amount of ankrFLOW you get when staking is calculated by the formula `stake * exchange_ratio`. The exchange ratio is calculated like this: `totals_supply_of_ankrFLOW / (total_staked_FLOW + total_rewards_for_staked_FLOW - total_unstaked_ankrFLOW)`.

+You can trade them in the listed liquidity pools on ANKR DeFi:

+# Bitcoin L2s
+
+Asphere partners with [Babylon](https://babylonlabs.io/) and offers launching your custom Bitcoin L2 PoS chains that natively integrate with Babylon's network and Bitcoin Staking protocol that bullet-proofs the crypto-economic security of you chain, makes it a participant of the healthy economics, and provides a highly-scalable chain with fast finality for its transactions.
+
+Babylon's Bitcoin Timestamping protocol provides the following security benefits to the PoS chains:
+
+  * **Solves long-range attacks**: Bitcoin's immutability ensures that finalized PoS blocks cannot be tampered with after they are anchored to the Bitcoin blockchain. This significantly reduces the risk of long-range attacks, where an attacker tries to rewrite the blockchain’s history by manipulating old blocks, as Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work (PoW) makes such attacks extremely costly and unlikely.
+
+  * **No weak subjectivity**: Bitcoin timestamps are objective. It can thus eliminate the dependency of PoS chains on social consensus and weak subjectivity.
+
+  * **Shorter unbonding time**: By replacing social consensus, BTC timestamping can reduce the stake unbonding time of PoS chains from weeks to one day.
+
+  * **New chain bootstrapping**: New PoS chains with low valuation are more vulnerable to forking attacks. BTC timestamping can help safeguard the chain alone its growth.
+
+  * **Verification of state sync and snapshots**: The objective truth about a PoS chain provided by BTC allows the users of the PoS chain to verify the chain state or snapshot it has downloaded from the P2P network.
+
+  * **Protecting important transactions**: BTC timestamps can be used to further confirm important PoS transactions at the cost of longer confirmation latency.
+
+  * **Censorship Resistance**: BTC timestamping could also be used to fight against transaction censorship in PoS chains via posting censored transactions to BTC.
+
+## Bitcoin L2 tech solution
+
+Asphere offers a comprehensive suite of technical solutions designed to accelerate launching your custom Bitcoin L2 PoS chain:
+
+  * **Cosmos SDK Template**: We offer a fully customizable template built on the Cosmos SDK, allowing developers to launch their own blockchain network quickly and start using it with an RPC URL.
+
+  * **Babylon Integration**: Native integration with Babylon’s network and Bitcoin staking protocol via the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol ensures that your PoS chain benefits from Bitcoin’s robust security. This integration provides fast finality for transactions and allows seamless interoperability with other blockchains, enhancing the overall security and scalability of your network.
+
+  * **VM Flexibility**: Developers can choose between various Virtual Machine (VM) environments, such as Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) or WebAssembly (WASM), based on the specific requirements of their project. This flexibility allows you to deploy smart contracts and other decentralized dApps with ease.
+
+  * **Modules**: Asphere also offers optional modules to enhance the capabilities of your network. These include cross-chain bridges for connecting to other networks and blockchain explorers for enhanced transparency and user experience.
