    ether.fi Stake logo

    ether.fi Stake

    Staking · Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum +3

    ether.fi Stake is a non-custodial Ethereum liquid staking protocol with about $4.6 billion in TVL. It has grown into a wider app for earning, borrowing and spending crypto, which adds scope but also complexity.

    Tenderize V2 logo

    Tenderize V2

    Staking · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Sei

    Tenderize V2 is a liquid staking protocol that lets users stake to a validator of their choice and receive a token that stays usable in DeFi. It targets a niche of networks, and its small TVL means the main risks are liquidity and smart-contract exposure.

    Liquid Finance logo

    Liquid Finance

    Staking · Arbitrum, Archway

    Liquid Finance is a liquid staking protocol that issues sARCH for staked ARCH and offers a queue for faster redemptions. Its main trade-off is liquidity: regular unstaking can take up to 25 days, while instant unstaking costs 1% and depends on queue funds.

    Stake Dao logo

    Stake Dao

    Staking · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base +1

    Stake DAO is a DeFi platform that lets holders of governance tokens lock them through liquid lockers and use yield strategies, with a lending market and a vote-marketplace layer. It suits users who already hold governance tokens and understand DeFi risk, and it is a poor fit for someone looking for a simple savings product.

    Parasail

    Staking · Filecoin, Arbitrum

    Parasail is a restaking and delegation protocol aimed at DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure) projects, with about $1.47M in TVL. It is early-stage and thinly documented publicly, so treat it as a higher-risk, research-first product.
