Liquid Staking Explained | HashKey Learn
The Ethereum Merge not only ushered in a brand-new era for the second largest crypto by market cap, but it also further accelerated and fortified the popularity and user adoption of staking.
Despite its benefits, staking is far from perfect in terms of its mechanism. One such limitation is capital inefficiency — users don’t want their assets locked up in staking during the lock-up period, especially not when those assets could be put to use elsewhere…
Enter, liquid staking.
Liquid staking enables crypto holders who have staked their assets to obtain liquidity in the form of a liquid representation of that token, which they can then use for other purposes, all while their staked assets continue to earn rewards, thus maximising the profit potential for the user. In the latest episode of HashKey Learn, host Jason Li speaks to Ben El-Baz, Head of Ecosystems of HashKey Group, on the 2 major benefits of liquid staking, and what qualities should institutions and professional investors look for in a staking service provider prior to engaging.
