Instead of a physical gateway, Shifts transform how you manage and optimize your DeFi assets. By integrating with Lido Finance, ShapeShift’s latest feature makes handling liquid staking derivatives simpler and more efficient.

What is Lido Finance?

Lido Finance provides liquid staking services for Ethereum and other blockchain assets. It allows users to stake their assets in a way that generates staking rewards while still retaining liquidity, Lido offers a practical solution for earning yield without locking up assets. When users stake through Lido, they receive a corresponding amount of liquid tokens that represent their staked assets, which can then be used in various DeFi applications.

Seamless Management of Lido Assets

With just a single click on ShapeShift Platform, you can manage your stETH and other staking derivatives. For example, if you need to convert stETH into other assets or adjust your staking positions based on performance, Shifts takes care of it all. 

Access to New Opportunities

Beyond simplifying management, Shifts also enhances your ability to capitalize on opportunities within the Lido ecosystem. With shifts, you can swiftly act on new developments and changes related to liquid staking derivatives.

Rather than manually executing trades or rebalancing your portfolio, Shifts handle these processes with a single click. This means you can easily convert stETH into other assets or adjust your staking strategy to take advantage of new opportunities. 

The Advantages of Shifts with Lido

The integration of Shifts with Lido Finance saves you time by reducing the need for manual asset management. This is particularly useful for those who want to focus on strategic decisions rather than getting bogged down by the technicalities of asset management.

1. Efficient Staking Adjustments: If you’re holding stETH and need to rebalance your staking positions, Shifts help the process. For instance, if Lido introduces a new staking option or adjusts its rewards structure, Shifts can realign your stETH to optimize returns based on the latest strategies with a single click.

2. Easy Conversion: Shifts allows you to convert stETH into other assets or cryptocurrencies. If you decide to move your stETH holdings into Ethereum or another DeFi asset, Shifts handles the conversion with a single click, reducing the need for manual transactions and multiple platform interactions.

3. Risk Management: With Shifts, you can quickly adjust your exposure to various staking derivatives based on real-time performance data. If stETH begins to underperform relative to other staking options, Shifts can handle the reallocation of your assets to alternatives, helping you manage risk more effectively.
