EigenLayer WBETH staking is a product available on Binance On-Chain Yields. It allows you to stake WBETH from your Spot Account and Funding Account into the EigenLayer Protocol. Through EigenLayer's restaking mechanism, you can earn additional rewards while retaining the liquidity and staking rewards of WBETH.
EigenLayer is a protocol built on top of the Ethereum blockchain. It introduced a concept called "restaking collective," allowing ETH stakers to support applications within the Ethereum ecosystem.
Wrapped Beacon ETH (WBETH) represents your staked Ethereum (ETH) and the staking reward received, in a tradable and transferable form. WBETH accumulates ETH staking rewards by growing in value in relation to ETH, even when it is used in Binance products or DeFi Projects.
By staking WBETH on EigenLayer, you can earn two types of rewards:
WBETH rewards: Holding WBETH represents the staked ETH plus the staking rewards. No rewards will be distributed to your Spot Account directly. Instead, the rewards earned are accrued and will increase the value of WBETH. This increased value is reflected by the WBETH:ETH conversion ratio updated daily at 00:00 (UTC). You‘ll be able to check the records of your earned rewards value in ETH on the WBETH Reward History on the Binance ETH Staking page.
EigenLayer rewards: EigenLayer WBETH staking rewards are distributed in EIGEN. Rewards are recorded daily starting from 00:00 (UTC) after you subscribe. However, these rewards are not distributed daily. All recorded rewards will be distributed to your Spot Account after the staking period ends.
Daily Rewards in EIGEN = (WBETH (Price in USDT) * APR / 365) / EIGEN (Price in USDT)
(Based on the token price at the daily snapshot time)
