Complexity: Low. Requires minimal management as the staked assets earn rewards automatically over time.
Staking while retaining liquidity through receipt tokens that can earn additional yields.

Complexity: Medium. Requires strategic planning and management similar to yield farming.
Reusing staked assets across multiple protocols for more rewards.
Earnings: Compound rewards in return for securing multiple protocols through restaking.
Risk: Higher smart contract risk due to multiple interactions, slashing risks, and platform risks.
Complexity: High. Requires managing multiple assets, understanding various platform and slashing risks, and actively monitoring to maximize yields while mitigating potential losses.
Similar to restaking, but with added liquidity to move assets across platforms.
Earnings: Compound rewards with added flexibility to trade or move assets.
Risk: Increased complexity and smart contract risk from multiple platforms.
Complexity: High. Requires managing multiple tokens across multiple platforms, understanding platform-specific risks, and optimizing yields through strategic DeFi participation.
