Liquid Staked ETH tokens represent a groundbreaking evolution in Ethereum ecosystem participation, enabling users to stake ETH without sacrificing liquidity. This category encompasses tokens like LSETH, stETH, and rETH, which function as programmatically minted receipts for staked Ethereum while granting holders access to decentralized finance (DeFi) opportunities. By converting locked staking positions into transferable assets, these tokens empower users to earn passive income through network rewards, diversify portfolios, and compound yields across protocols—all while maintaining full ownership of their staked ETH.
