This skill analyzes staking opportunities across multiple proof-of-stake blockchains and liquid staking protocols. It compares APY/APR, calculates net yields after fees, assesses protocol risks, and provides optimization recommendations for maximizing staking returns.
Key capabilities:
Before using this skill, ensure you have:
requests library for API calls (pip install requests)Optional:
To compare staking options for a specific asset:
python {baseDir}/scripts/staking_optimizer.py --asset ETHThis fetches current rates from DeFiLlama and displays:
For gas-adjusted yields based on your stake amount:
python {baseDir}/scripts/staking_optimizer.py --asset ETH --amount 10Adding --amount calculates:

IMPLEMENTATION
1. Unstake 10 ETH from Lido (instant - liquid)
2. Swap stETH → ETH on Curve (0.01% slippage est.)
3. Stake ETH for sfrxETH on Frax Finance
4. Est. gas cost: ~$15 (current gas: 25 gwei)

Overall Score: 9/10 (Low Risk)
Breakdown:
- Audit Status: ✓ Multiple audits, latest 6 months ago (+2.0)
- Time in Production: ✓ 3+ years live (+2.0)
- TVL Size: ✓ $15B+ locked (+2.0)
- Protocol Reputation: ✓ Industry standard, DAO governance (+1.5)
- Validator Diversity: ✓ 30+ validators (+1.5)
Considerations:
- Largest LSD by market share (potential centralization concerns)
- stETH occasionally trades at slight discount to ETH
- 10% fee on staking rewards
Historical:
- No slashing events to date
- stETH peg maintained through market stress
- Consistent validator performance
