faq
What is liquid staking?
+Proof-of-stake blockchains require participants to lock up funds as collateral, known as crypto staking. Traditional staking locks coins, preventing their use for apps or services. Liquid staking offers a solution by allowing earning rewards while retaining the ability to trade and use tokens in DeFi and blockchain apps.
Liquid staking enables users to create a token representing their staked assets, whose value increases as staking rewards accrue. This token’s broad acceptance in DeFi empowers users to secure the network through staking and to engage in DeFi activities.
What is ETHx?
+ETHx is the liquid staking token that embodies your staked ETH within Stader Ethereum. It’s an innovative creation by Stader aimed at transforming Ethereum staking. The vision for ETHx is to redefine the staking journey and grant users the ultimate freedom to utilize their staked ETH while still earning rewards and participating in DeFi.
What are the advantages of liquid staking compared to simple staking?
+Liquid staking, such as ETHx from Stader, gives you a token representative that you can trade, sell, or use in DeFi protocols while earning staking rewards. This boosts liquidity and usability of staked assets.
How do I track my rewards?
+Your staking rewards are reflected in the rising value of your ETHx tokens. For example, if you initially staked 10 ETH and received 10 ETHx, and the exchange rate increases to 1.02 ETHx/ETH, your total holding value becomes 10 ETHx * 1.02 = 10.2 ETH. The increase of 0.2 ETH represents your rewards, which you can track by monitoring the ETHx/ETH exchange rate and your ETHx holdings.
What are the uses of ETHx in DeFi?
+ETHx tokens offer more than just staking rewards; they grant access to the DeFi ecosystem, adding utility to your staked Ethereum while earning rewards. You can use ETHx for yield farming, lending, borrowing, and contributing to liquidity pools.
What is the ETH:ETHx exchange rate, and how does it change?
+The ETHx exchange rate is dynamic, representing the total value of the Stader stake pool for each ETHx token. Initially set at 1:1, it increases as rewards accumulate. For example, if the Stake Pool gains 100 ETH, the new exchange rate becomes 1.1:1, meaning each ETHx token now equals 1.1 ETH, reflecting the rewards added.
