MetaMask Staking launches, plugging into Lido and Rocket Pool liquid staking – Crypto News
MetaMask users are set to have access to Ethereum liquid staking providers Lido and Rocket Pool courtesy of a new integration unveiled by ConsenSys.
MetaMask Staking will unlock the ability for users to stake Ether (eth) through the Lido and Rocket Pool protocols, touting the service to improve the security and decentralization of the Ethereum blockchain.
Users will be able to compare reward rates, network control and popularity of different liquid staking providers, providing additional information to inform staking solution choices. The service begins with a public beta through the MetaMask portfolio decentralized application (DApp).
Users will be able to stake through Lido and Rocket Pool and view Lido (stETH) and Rocket Pool (rETH) staking token balances. These tokens can also be swapped back to ETH through MetaMask Swaps.
Liquid staking is a method of staking assets on the Ethereum blockchain that allows users to earn rewards while maintaining the ability to freely transfer and trade their assets. The assets are deposited in a smart contract, earning rewards based on the total amount staked by all users.
MetaMask product manager Abad Mian told Cointelegraph that the service saw increased user demand for staking solutions following Ethereum’s transition to proof-of-stake Consensus in September 2022.
“From an internal survey, 85% of respondents said they would like to review several options before deciding where to stake their assets. In addition, over 74% of respondents stated that they are staking or interested in staking.”
Mian also confirmed that MetaMask will explore the potential of offering additional liquid staking providers. He also clarified that MetaMask was not providing staking services directly but connecting users to Ethereum’s major liquid staking providers through smart contract functionality.
Cointelegraph also inquired about the possibility of staking services being rolled out to MetaMask Institutional, the platform’s offering serving institutional clients, While Mian declined to comment specifically, he noted that MetaMask continues to evaluate its offerings across its range of services.
Mian also said that the impact of staking tools on Ethereum’s decentralization would depend on their popularity, user experience, and demand for staking services.
“Staking is just one factor that can impact decentralization in a blockchain network.”
Blockchain analysis carried out by Nansen in December 2022 revealed that demand for liquid Ethereum staking services was on the rise following The Merge. As of Jan. 13, the Ethereum staking contract contains over 16 million ETH, with Lido’s liquid staking pool the largest contributor with over 4.6 million ETH deposited.
