StakeWise is one of the longest-running liquid staking protocols and was the first to introduce non-custodial staking. A major protocol upgrade is due to launch in Q2 2023, StakeWise V3, which will introduce a brand-new model for liquid staking. StakeWise V3 will give users full control of their staking solution, allowing them to liquid stake on their own terms. For example:

• StakeWise V3 will introduce a new liquid staking token, osETH. With in-built slashing protection, it will be one of the safest liquid staking tokens on the market.
• Solo stakers will be able to access a liquid staking token whilst staking on their own nodes.
• Stakers will be able to choose their preferred node operators from an open marketplace, allowing them to create a bespoke staking solution that best suits their needs.
• White-label liquid staking – any node operator or DApp can launch its own liquid staking solution by leveraging the V3 architecture.
• The ability to create segregated staking pools will allow regulated capital (institutional and retail) to liquid stake in a highly-regulatory compliant environment.
