Liquid Staking
This segment of the Trusted Node network allows users to create wrapped token derivatives. For an additional fee, users can generate ERC-20 tokens tied to their staked capital. These “t-tokens” are a liquid equivalent of the staked native assets and can be sold, swapped, or deposited to vaults for additional yields.
Liquid staking brings staked coins back to circulation while still allowing users to earn rewards on their capital.
At any time, users can claim their staking rewards payable in native coins, t-tokens, or $TNODE tokens. To claim back the initial asset, users need to burn their t-derivatives. Depending on the PoS and DPoS blockchain rules, there might be a withdrawal period to minimize slashing risks for the network’s validator nodes.
