About HORD

Hord is an innovative liquid staking (LSD) solution that strengthens the Ethereum ecosystem and offers a straightforward way to earn rewards on your ETH. When staking with Hord, you receive a liquid token called hETH that mirrors your stake and can be used in DeFi applications while accumulating rewards.

The Hord protocol is comprised of the following components:

  1. Staking Pool - Manages deposits, staking rewards, and withdrawals.

  2. hETH - The liquid token hETH reflects a staker’s ETH combined with rewards. hETH is tradable and transferable, unlike a solo staker’s ETH, which is locked in a node.

  3. Node Operators - Providers of secure, stable infrastructure for running validator clients in support of the Hord protocol. These providers are dedicated to staking funds and ensuring the validity of protocol operations.

  4. DAO - HORD token holders can propose and vote on changes to the protocol.
