# Staking to ETH Vaults
## Summary
* In three simple steps you can stake any amount of ETH, mint osETH as a liquid staking token and deposit your osETH into Eigenlayer.
* Our Stakewise vault allows you to mint osETH, which is a liquid staking token (LST). The issued liquid staking token is overcollateralized, meaning the underlying assets in the vault are worth more than the osETH issued.
* For an introduction to Staking Vaults, their benefits for institutions, investors, and use cases, please visit our overview page: [Chorus One Ethereum Staking](/our-products/chorus-one-ethereum-staking.md)
***
## **How to stake**
First, access our staking experience:
1. Stake any amount of ETH via the [Earn Platform](https://staking.chorus.one/eth/stake)
2. Mint osETH from your staked ETH to be used in other DeFi using our [Ethereum Staking Pool app](https://opus.chorus.one/pool/stake/)
These methods are made as simple as possible to enhance your staking experience, and can be used as described below:
### **Stake ETH**
**Step 1:** Connect your wallet on the page and choose a vault.
* You can choose the Chorus One MEV Max vault or the Chorus One Obol DV vault.
{% hint style="info" %}
You can hover over the "i" symbol next to each to view the vaults on Stakewise V3 and you can learn about the differences between each vault by checking the table menus below.
{% endhint %}
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="MEV Max" %}
Chorus One’s ground-breaking MEV research ensures the highest yields with top-tier security and enterprise-level infrastructure.
If you'd like to take a deep dive, Chorus One's pioneering MEV research led to the design of **Adagio** an in-house, optimized Ethereum MEV-boost client that increases our MEV rewards by optimizing the way we interact with the transaction supply chain.
* In a recent pilot with Adagio were able to generate 4.75% additional MEV rewards.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Obol DV" %}
This vault represents a distributed validator cluster , using Obol's DV technology to run the validators across multiple nodes. As a staker, you can expect higher uptime, decreased slashing risk, and a meaningful contribution to the decentralization of the Ethereum network.
By staking with an Obol DV, you automatically participate in the Obol Contributions initiative, contributing 1% of staking rewards to the "1% for Decentralization" retroactive funding model. Your contributions will be tracked and recognized by Obol and can be viewed on our staking dApp.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
Staking Vault Selection
**Step 2:** Select how much ETH you wish to stake, enter the amount, and click '**Confirm and Stake**'
Transaction Success Status
{% hint style="success" %}
At this point, you're now staking your ETH!
However, if you want to restake your ETH in EigenLayer or Symbiotic, read on!
{% endhint %}
**Step 3 (Optional):** Mint osETH and deposit it into EigenLayer or Symbiotic.
Once deposited successfully, you can now mint your osETH in 1-click by clicking '**Mint osETH**' as shown in the screenshot above.
### **How to Restake your osETH or other supported Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs)**
You can bring your [supported liquid staking tokens](/our-products/chorus-one-ethereum-staking.md#supported-liquid-staking-tokens-lsts-can-be-seen-below) minted on any external platform and deposit them into EigenLayer through [Ethereum Staking Pool app](https://opus.chorus.one/pool/stake/)
**Step 1:** Go to the Ethereum Staking Pool page, select Restake and connect your wallet
**Step 2:** Select either EigenLayer or Symbiotic, (shown above) and then select your LRT (i.e. osETH) that you'd like to stake.
**Step 3:** Deposit your tokens into EigenLayer or Symbiotic.
{% hint style="success" %}
**That's it, you're all done!**
**You can navigate to the Dashboard on the sidebar at any time to review your staked balances.**
{% endhint %}

## **The ETH Staking SDK**
Our institutional customers may opt in to leverage the [Staking SDK](https://chorus-one.gitbook.io/sdk) to integrate ETH staking into their offerings, providing their customers with all the benefits of the Chorus One staking experience.
This allows our institutional client’s customers to benefit from all the features offered by ETH Staking Vaults, including no minimum ETH required to stake, top tier-MEV yields, high rewards, and direct restaking with EigenLayer and Symbiotic.

```
GET https://sdk.chorus.one/our-products/chorus-one-ethereum-staking/staking-to-eth-vaults.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
