INTRODUCTION: THE "FREE MONEY" TRAP
Look, I made this mistake so you don't have to. In 2024, I locked my ETH in a standard staking contract for 5% APY. I felt smart. Then the market pumped, new opportunities appeared, and my capital was... stuck. Dead. Frozen.
Fast forward to 2026. If you are still just "staking" your crypto, you are leaving massive gains on the table. The game has changed. We are in the era of DeFi 2.0, and the biggest narrative right now is Liquid Restaking (LRT).
Imagine depositing $100 in a bank, getting a receipt, and then using that receipt to buy stocks while still earning interest in the bank. That’s LRT. It’s leverage without borrowing. It’s the "infinite money glitch" of 2026 (until it breaks, of course).
Let’s break it down before the suits at BlackRock buy everything.
1. STAKING VS. RESTAKING: THE EVOLUTION
To understand LRT, you need to understand the evolution of yield.
DeFi 1.0 (Liquid Staking - LST): You stake ETH (secure the Ethereum network) and get a token like stETH. You earn ~3-4%. Cool, but boring.DeFi 2.0 (Restaking): You take that staked ETH and stake it AGAIN to secure other protocols (called AVS - Actively Validated Services) via EigenLayer.Liquid Restaking (LRT): Protocols do this for you. You deposit ETH, they restake it across multiple networks, and give you a token (like ezETH or rsETH) that earns REWARDS ON TOP OF REWARDS.
Simple Math:
Staking (3%) + Restaking (5%) + DeFi Yield Farming (10%) = 18%+ APY on ETH.
This is why everyone is rushing in.
2. HOW IT ACTUALLY WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
When you give your ETH to an LRT protocol (like Ether.fi, Renzo, or Puffer in 2026), three things happen instantly:
Deposit: Your asset is locked to secure the main Ethereum chain.Delegation: The protocol delegates your security power to other apps (Oracles, Bridges, Sidechains) that need trust.Minting: You receive a liquid token (LRT) in your wallet.
The Magic: You can take this LRT token and sell it, lend it on Aave, or use it as collateral for futures trading. Your capital is never sleeping.
Current 2026 Leaders to Watch:
$ETHFI (Ether.fi): The king of TVL. Safest bet.$REZ (Renzo): Aggressive strategies, higher risk/reward.$PENDLE : Not an LRT itself, but the casino where you trade these yields. If you understand Pendle, you understand 2026.
3. THE RISKS: WHAT NOBODY TELLS YOU
I’m an optimist, but I’m not blind. This "money lego" tower is tall. If one piece breaks, it gets ugly.
Slashing Risk: If the validator messes up, you lose a portion of your ETH. In Restaking, you are validating multiple networks. More networks = higher chance of failure.De-pegging: If everyone tries to sell their ezETH for real ETH at the same time, the price can crash. We saw this with stETH in 2022. It will happen again during a panic.Contract Risk: You are trusting 3-4 layers of smart contracts. One bug in EigenLayer could wipe billions.
My Rule: Never put 100% of your portfolio in LRTs. Keep 50% in cold storage or standard staking. Greed kills.
THE "SECRET SAUCE": AIRDROP FARMING 2.0 🤫
Here is the Alpha that most guides miss.
In 2026, new AVS (services using restaking) launch every week. They need liquidity. They don't just pay yield; they pay in POINTS and TOKENS.
By holding LRTs, you are automatically qualifying for "hidden" airdrops from these new protocols.
Strategy: Don't just hold the biggest LRT. Split your bag into smaller, newer LRT protocols. They are desperate for liquidity and pay the highest "bribes" (airdrops) to attract you.
YOUR ACTION PLAN (DO THIS NOW)
Don't just read. Execute.
Audit Your Bags: Are you holding idle ETH on an exchange? Move it.Start Small: Deposit 10% of your ETH into a "Blue Chip" LRT like Ether.fi.Use Pendle: Learn how to hedge your yield on Pendle Finance. It’s the pro tool.Monitor the Peg: Set an alert on CoinGecko if your LRT drops below 0.98 ETH. If it does, buy the dip or exit.

DeFi 2.0 isn't just about yield; it's about capital efficiency. In 2026, money that sits still loses value against inflation and tech growth. Liquid Restaking is the engine of this bull run.
Is it risky? Yes.
Is it worth it? If you manage your risk—absolutely.
Stop being a spectator. Become a participant.

Hey Square Fam! 👋 Let's dive into one of the hottest topics dominating crypto conversations today: Restaking and the explosive growth of Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs)!
If you've been scrolling through your feeds, you've undoubtedly seen the buzz around protocols like EigenLayer, Ether.fi, KelpDAO, and Renzo. But what exactly is restaking, and why are LRTs becoming such a game-changer?
What is Restaking?
In a nutshell, restaking allows users to re-leverage their staked Ethereum$ETH (ETH) (or other PoS assets) to secure other decentralized applications and protocols. Think of it as putting your staked assets to work a second time, earning additional rewards for providing security and trust to a wider ecosystem.
The Power of LRTs
This is where things get really interesting! Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRT) like eETH, rsETH, and ezETH are essentially tokens that represent your restaked position. This innovative mechanism offers several key advantages:
Enhanced Capital Efficiency: You can earn both staking rewards from your base ETH and additional rewards from restaking, maximizing your capital's potential.
Liquidity: Unlike traditional staking where your assets might be locked, LRTs provide liquidity. You can trade, lend, or use your LRTs in other $DEFI protocols while still accruing restaking rewards. This unlocks a whole new layer of composability!
Diversification of Risk/Reward: By securing various AVS (Actively Validated Services) on EigenLayer, restakers can potentially diversify their reward streams and contribute to the security of a broader set of decentralized services.
Why the Hype?
The excitement around restaking and LRTs stems from their potential to significantly enhance the utility and yield opportunities within the Ethereum ecosystem and beyond. It's creating new primitives for DeFi, fostering innovation, and attracting massive capital. We're seeing intense competition among LRT protocols to attract users with attractive reward structures, points systems (often hinting at future airdrops 👀), and integrations.
What are your thoughts?
Are you participating in restaking? Which LRT protocols are you bullish on? Let us know in the comments below! This space is evolving rapidly, and it's definitely one to watch closely.
Staysafe, and happy restaking! 🚀

這陣子多次和小夥伴們提過的Karak好像準備發空投啦！
昨天Karak的DC中文區MOD在回應社群提問時，表示項目方老闆說Karak會在Eigenlayer之前上線，MOD預測最晚就是9/30之前。
之前和大家介紹過好多次Karak相關的佈局方式，大家可以點選這邊連結直接傳送到之前的文章看看要怎麼搞Karak，最後一個月趕緊來衝分、不要錯過了。
KelpDAO+Karak一魚雙吃策略、Pendel收益+Karak空投積分一魚雙吃策略、Karak介紹、Methamorphosis一魚多吃-Karak
Karak目前支援再質押的區塊鏈有Ethereum、Arbiturm、BSC、Blast、Mantle、K2，在這些鏈上有閒置資產的，不妨看看要不要質押到Karak上賺取空投積分。
但是大家要注意，解除質押需要七天冷卻期！
目前場外積分市場Whales Pro也有上架Karak積分交易市場，價格是0.0077，但是交易量偏低，可以加減作為積分分數的參考價值。
-------------------------------------
由於使用Karak需要先輸入invite code才能進入private access參與Karak生態，如果大家有興趣使用Karak，歡迎綁定任一個code：

Bedrock昨日發布公告表示其uniBTC智能合約漏洞遭到攻擊者利用，使其部屬在Uniswap上的流動性池受到影響，目前漏洞已受到控制。
還不知道Bedrock的夥伴，可以看我這篇文章：再質押協議Bedrock基本介紹&空投教程
以下是我整理有關此次安全事件的相關資訊：
1.遭受攻擊者利用的資產是在Uniswap的流動性池，受影響資產總計約200萬美元。
2.漏洞原因是代碼問題使得攻擊者得以運用原生BTC鑄造uniBTC。

今日Bedrock發布了事後分析報告，重點整理如下：
1.整合Chainlink提供儲備證明(POR)

2.推進取消質押的功能
3.去中心化交易所的LP流動性激勵計畫
4.補償uniBTC持有者100顆diamonds(快照時間是9/26 PM6:28:23)，並提高社群空投比例0.5%。
除此之外，Bedrock將建立相關預防措施來避免類似情況發生：
1.再進行多輪安全審計
2.設立7x24安全監控機制
3.設立安全基金(TGE後，透過治理提案發起)
4.啟動Bug Bounty賞金計畫
總結
儘管這次受影響的資產數量並不大，但仍顯示了Bedrock的代碼風險問題，正如我一直提醒大家的，操作鏈上協議需要承受很多的風險可能性，現今的再質押風潮所使用的操作，更會因此放大這些風險，因為用戶會同時將資產質押再質押於多個協議。
但是仍須肯定Bedrock團隊的反應速度以及完整的應對措施，對於用戶而言，未來可以透過Chainlink的儲備證明來驗證Bedrock是否真的有1:1的資產；對於團隊而言，也能藉此限制惡意鑄造的可能性，確保新鑄造的代幣確實有儲備的支持。
*擔心Bedrock協議安全問題的夥伴，可以等之後團隊上限取消質押的功能後，將資產提出轉到別的地方。
*詳細報告內容請上Bedrock的Mirror查看
