# Liquid staking

> Compare the networks, receipt tokens, and exit models across every liquid staking integration.

This section documents liquid staking protocol mechanics: what you deposit, what receipt token you hold, and how each protocol's exit works. The liquid staking concept itself, rebasing versus exchange-rate tokens, and how it differs from native and pooled staking, is covered in [Staking types](/documentation/earn/staking/types).

## Integrations

| Protocol | Network | Stake → receive | Exit model |
| - | - | - | - |
| [Lido](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/lido) | Ethereum, Solana | ETH → stETH; POL → stMATIC (exit only); SOL → stSOL (exit only) | stETH: withdrawal queue (5 days) + claim. stMATIC: unbonding (3 days) + withdraw. stSOL: unbonding (3 days) + withdraw |
| [Rocket Pool](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/rocketpool) | Ethereum | ETH → rETH | Swap-based, instant, no queue |
| [Mantle](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/mantle) | Ethereum | ETH → mETH (enter only) | Not available through yield.xyz |
| [xSUSHI](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/xsushi) | Ethereum | SUSHI → xSUSHI | Instant, no queue |
| [Marinade](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/marinade) | Solana | SOL → mSOL | Delayed unbonding (3 days) + withdraw, or instant pool swap |
| [Benqi](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/benqi) | Avalanche C-Chain | AVAX → sAVAX | Unbonding (15 days) + 2-day claim window |
| [slisBNB (Lista)](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/slisbnb) | BNB Chain | BNB → slisBNB | Unbonding (7 days) + claim |
| [Tonstakers](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/tonstakers) | TON | GRAM → tsTON | Instant, no queue |
| [sTRX (JustLend)](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/strx) | Tron | TRX → sTRX | Unbonding (14 days) + claim |

## Integration-level differences

* **Exit only.** Lido's stMATIC and stSOL positions can only be unstaked and withdrawn through yield.xyz; entering is disabled at the protocol integration level regardless of the underlying contract's pause state. See [Lido](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/lido).
* **Enter only.** Mantle's mETH has no exit path through yield.xyz: there is no unstake transaction and the integration's status check always reports exit as unavailable. See [Mantle](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/mantle).
* **Instant exits.** Rocket Pool, xSUSHI, and Tonstakers settle the exit in the same transaction flow as the request, with no unbonding period.
* **Queued exits.** Lido (all three assets), Marinade, Benqi, slisBNB, and sTRX move the position into a cooldown after the exit request. Once the cooldown elapses, the funds appear on the `withdrawable` public balance type and expose a pending action (`CLAIM_UNSTAKED` or `WITHDRAW`, depending on the integration) to move them to the wallet.
* **TON's native token.** TON's yields report the native asset as `GRAM` in yield.xyz's token metadata, not `TON`. The Tonstakers yield ID keeps the `ton-` prefix regardless.

## Marinade Native (Max Yield)

`solana-sol-marinade-native-max-yield-staking` is a pooled staking product (public `type` `staking`, not `liquid_staking`): it does not mint a receipt token. It's documented on [Solana staking](/documentation/earn/staking/non-evm/solana) alongside SOL's other staking yields.
