@Lorenzo Protocol is layer-2 liquid restaking protocol (LRT) allows user to deposit ETH and LSDs (Liquid Staking Derivatives such as stETH, ETHx, rETH, mETH and etc.), receive LRTs (Liquid Restaking Tokens) earn Ethereum staking yield plus restaking rewards and additional protocol level incentives too.
Once you deposit, Lorenzo converts them into Lorenzo Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs) like stETH based LRT or ETH-based LRT.
After you deposit, Lorenzo:
Stakes your ETH/LSD to earn Ethereum staking yield which 3-4% ETH staking yield. Use these token restake them into Eigen Layer or Similar networks. This boosts your rewards because AVSs pay for securtiy.
AVS: An activley validated service is any decentralized system or application that reauires its own validators, security or trust network-bt instead of building its own validator set, it borrows security from Etherum through restaking.
Your deposit mints an LRT:
Deposit ETH--->get ETH-based LRT
Deposit stETH/rETH--->get LSD-based LRT
Deposit BTC derivatives --->get stBTC/enzoBTC
LRTs automatically accumulate:
Ethereum staking yield
Restaking rewards / points
Additional partner incentives
Airdrop-style points
Used for future token distributions (like $BANK or AVS Tokens)
Restaking
Lorenzo deposits your ETH/LSD into EigenLayer. your stake is now eligible to secure Actively Validated Services (AVSs).
AVSs borrow security from your stake this can be:
Oracle
Data availability layers
AI networks
Bridges
Sequencers
Rollups
MEV systems
Now AVSs pay rewards to Lorenzo
Rewards will be:
Points, Tokens, Future airdrops or Yield from their services. Then Lorenzo distributes yield back to LRT holders. that is why holding LRTs is so profitable.
Lorenzo is performing better than other LRTs Platforms because of these factors:
Lorenzo chooses the best set of AVSs for maximum output. it phenomenally reduces the risk of any loss or penalty. Lorenzo also provides Cross chain utility, Restaking of BTC, ETH and in future other L1s. It also provides the benefit of one LRT which yields multiple streams.
Redemption
When you want to redeem your assets, you simply need to return your LRT, you will receive the accordingly ETH or LSD. If it is fast exit, Lorenzo uses Liquidity pools. If it is slow exit validators un-stake from Ethereum.
Cross Chain Access
Lorenzo LRTs retain their Ethereum based yield on other chains is well.
You mint loETH on Ethereum
bridge it to Arbitrum
use it in Defi lending
Still earn Ethereum staking + Restaking rewards
Multi Chain Defi Integrations
With Cross Chain utility Lorenzo can plug into Lending markets.
Borrow stablecoins using loETH / enzoBTC as Collateral
Leverage positions
provide liquidity on L2 AMMs
Earn trading fees and rewrds
use loETH and enzoBTC as perpetual DEX Collateral
Many chains have special incentive programs for LRT liquidity
@Lorenzo Protocol is reshaping the way of liquid staking.
