KernelDAO is a leading multi-chain restaking ecosystem that helps users maximize returns on their staked crypto assets like ETH, BTC, and BNB by enabling restaking across multiple networks and services without locking them up. It operates through three main products:
Kernel: The entry point where users deposit liquid staking tokens (LSTs) such as stETH, which are then restaked automatically across reliable validators and services with protection against slashing and improved decentralization.
Kelp: A matching engine connecting validators with Actively Validated Services (AVSs) that require reliable validation for tasks like data provision and transaction verification. It helps validators find restaking opportunities and enforces service rules.
Gain: A rewards optimizer that consolidates and manages restaking rewards from multiple services, offering features like earnings estimation, claiming, and reinvestment to boost yields.
