Staking & Restaking
Staking commits tokens to a proof-of-stake network in return for a share of issuance and fees, with the stake slashable if the validator misbehaves. Liquid staking issues a receipt token that stays tradable and usable as collateral while the deposit stays bonded, and restaking lends the same security to other services.
The filters separate liquid staking, restaking, validator operators that run nodes on behalf of delegators, and Bitcoin staking. Entries are ordered by value locked on DefiLlama, with featured listings first.
Lido
Lido is a liquid staking solution for ETH 2.0 that lets users stake their ETH without maintaining infrastructure
SSV Network
SSV Network splits an Ethereum validator key across independent operators using distributed validator technology, and $SSV pays the operator set.
EigenLayer
EigenLayer lets Ethereum stakers restake their $ETH and liquid staking tokens to secure additional services, with operators running the software and carrying slashing risk.
EtherFi
EtherFi is a non-custodial liquid restaking protocol that lets users stake ETH while retaining key ownership, with native EigenLayer restaking for additional yield on top of Ethereum consensus rewards.
Babylon
Babylon lets Bitcoin holders stake native $BTC through self-custodial time-locked scripts that secure proof-of-stake chains, without bridging the coins.
Sanctum
Sanctum runs infrastructure for Solana liquid staking tokens, with a reserve pool that lets holders swap between them and unstake without waiting.
Rocket Pool
Rocket Pool is a Ethereum Proof of Stake Protocol, designed to be community owned, decentralised and trustless.
Kinetiq
Kinetiq is liquid staking for $HYPE on Hyperliquid, issuing $kHYPE and routing the stake across validators scored by an on-chain performance system.
Kelp DAO
Kelp DAO issues $rsETH, a liquid restaking token backed by Ethereum stake delegated through EigenLayer. It runs on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum and Base.
Jito
Jito runs Solana liquid staking through $jitoSOL and a validator client that captures MEV tips, sharing the proceeds with stakers.
StakeWise
StakeWise is a DeFi protocol created to simplify entry into Ethereum staking. It tokenize ETH staked with the StakeWise Pool to create an interest-bearing version of Ether that can be used across the DeFi ecosystem.
Marinade Finance
Marinade.Finance is a non-custodial liquid staking protocol built on Solana. You can stake your SOL tokens with Marinade using automated staking strategies and receive “marinated SOL” tokens (mSOL) that you can use in decentralized finance (DeFi).
Liquid Collective
Liquid Collective is a liquid staking standard for institutions, issuing $LsETH through enterprise node operators and platforms that run identity checks on Ethereum.
Obol
Obol runs distributed validator clusters for Ethereum, splitting one validator’s duties across several machines so a single failure does not take it offline.
mETH Protocol
mETH Protocol is the liquid staking system behind Mantle, issuing $mETH for Ethereum stake and $cmETH for restaked positions. It runs on Ethereum and Mantle.
Solv
Solv Protocol is a Bitcoin staking platform that enables users to stake BTC while maintaining liquidity. Powered by its Staking Abstraction Layer (SAL), SolvBTC connects Bitcoin holders with diverse DeFi opportunities for yield generation.
Renzo
Renzo issues $ezETH, a liquid restaking token that delegates Ethereum stake to EigenLayer operators. It runs on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base and BNB Chain.
Symbiotic
Symbiotic is a permissionless restaking layer on Ethereum where networks choose which collateral assets, operators and slashing rules secure them.
Ankr
Ankr is a Web3 infrastructure provider that operates an array of globally-distributed nodes serving 50 blockchain networks and RPC services to 18+ blockchains.
P2P Validator
P2P Validator provides staking services to help you generate rewards on your assets across 25+ networks in the blockchain space
