# Expanding to BNB

Liquid staking is a sector in the BNB ecosystem with roughly US$150M in TVL.

Similar to ETH, 14% of BNB is staked and we see a lot of similar projects.&#x20;

* ANKR
* STader
* pStake&#x20;

These projects are "LSD" projects that provide LSD BNB for people who stake BNB with yield.&#x20;

As they are rebasing tokens, this reminds of the early LSD days of Ethereum.

And we now see Binance actively exploring this space starting with stablecoins.&#x20;

We believe that the next LSDfi explosion will come from a very active ecosystem such as Binance Smart Chain.&#x20;
