Could you elaborate on the key advantage that liquid staking offers over traditional staking methods? I'm particularly interested in understanding how it addresses some of the limitations of traditional staking, such as the lack of liquidity and potential for missed opportunities. Does liquid staking provide a more efficient use of capital or enhance accessibility to staking rewards for investors? What are some specific benefits that liquid staking affords to its users?

When engaging in liquid staking, investors receive Liquid Stake Tokens (LSTs) that represent their stake in the pool.

In traditional staking, investors are required to lock their tokens for a predefined duration, sacrificing liquidity in exchange for potential rewards.

However, with liquid staking, investors enjoy the benefit of maintaining liquidity while still participating in staking activities.
