- Staking means locking a proof-of-stake coin (like ETH or SOL) to help secure its network, in return for rewards paid in that same coin.
- Native staking delegates the coin directly and often has a waiting period to unstake. Liquid staking gives you a receipt token you can sell instead of waiting. Restaking adds extra yield and extra risk.
- The rate is in the coin, so if its price falls you can lose money in dollars even while earning rewards.

How ETH staking works
Ethereum is secured by validators who lock 32 ETH each. Liquid staking protocols (Lido, Rocket Pool, ether.fi…) pool deposits, run validators for you and hand back a receipt token like stETH or rETH that grows in value or balance. Restaking protocols (Kelp, Renzo…) re-use staked ETH to secure other networks for extra rewards, adding another layer of risk.
Lockups and unbonding
Variable: Ethereum's validator exit queue can take hours to weeks depending on demand. Liquid staking tokens can usually be swapped back on a DEX at any time.
What can go wrong
- Smart-contract risk: liquid staking and restaking tokens are contracts that can have bugs.
- Slashing: validators that misbehave or go offline can lose part of the stake, and stakers share the loss.
- Depeg / exit rush: in a panic, receipt tokens can trade below the coin they represent for a while.
- Price risk: the yield is paid in ETH. If ETH falls 30%, a 5% yield doesn't save you.
- Exchange-issued tokens depend on the exchange staying solvent and honest.
