KernelDAO — A Deep Dive into the Restaking Stack Powering Multi-Chain DeFi
KernelDAO is weaving together staking, liquidity, and automated yield into one integrated ecosystem. This deep dive explores its technology, tokenomics, roadmap, and why it matters for DeFi.
⸻
1) Overview
KernelDAO is not just a single protocol but an ecosystem of three products — Kernel (BNB restaking), Kelp (liquid ETH restaking), and Gain (automated vaults). Together they solve one of DeFi’s biggest challenges: how to make staked assets more productive without compromising security.
The vision: connect staking → liquidity → yield → governance in one stack powered by the $KERNEL token.

2) Products Breakdown
Kernel brings restaking to the BNB ecosystem. Users can restake BNB to secure networks and, in return, earn extra incentives while bolstering shared security.
• Kelp (Liquid ETH Restaking):
Kelp transforms staked ETH into liquid tokens. This gives users the ability to continue earning rewards and use their tokens across DeFi protocols — a major capital efficiency gain.
• Gain (Automated Vaults):
Gain is KernelDAO’s yield automation layer. It auto-compounds and optimizes strategies for restaked and liquid-staked assets. Users don’t need to micromanage — the vaults handle yield farming for them.
