In this post-Merge world, there is a growing demand for simple staking services that ultimately secure Ethereum. Whether you’re a seasoned stalker or a sideline watcher, Metamask Staking offers an intuitive way to jump in and Stake your $ETH for rewards.
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).

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.
