Tl;dr: StakeWise is poised to shake up the liquid staking landscape with the launch of V3.
StakeWise is a liquid staking protocol. In the current iteration of the protocol, StakeWise V2, users can stake their ETH to receive two tokens: sETH2, which represents a claim on their underlying deposit, and rETH, a token that accrues staking rewards. The protocol generates revenue by taking a 10% cut of staking rewards and is governed by the SWISE token, which is also used to incentivize liquidity for sETH2. StakeWise currently has a 0.45% market share of all staked and a 0.9% share among liquid staking protocols.
StakeWise recently announced their plans to launch StakeWise V3, a revamp of the protocol. V3 will introduce a completely new architecture where users can stake ETH into isolated vaults run by individual node operators (NOs). Users who do so will receive an NFT that represents a claim on their deposit, which they can use to mint an LSD, osETH, at a pre-set collateral factor (CF) based on the value of their deposit.
