Liquid restaking tokens (LRTs) represent restaked positions, providing liquidity while earning restaking rewards. Use LRTs in DeFi while your ETH secures multiple networks.

Supported protocols

Renzo (ezETH)

ezETH liquid restaking token

EtherFi (eETH/weETH)

eETH and wrapped eETH

KelpDAO (rsETH)

rsETH liquid restaking token

How liquid restaking works

  1. Deposit — Stake ETH into a liquid restaking protocol
  2. Receive LRT — Get ezETH, eETH, rsETH, etc.
  3. Earn — Accumulate staking + restaking + points rewards
  4. Use in DeFi — LRTs are composable in lending, LPing, etc.
LRTs have varying withdrawal mechanics. Some support instant unstaking via DEX, others have withdrawal queues.
