Lending
Your assets are put into DeFi lending protocols and lent to borrowers.
<b>Borrowers use mainstream cryptocurrencies (like ETH or BTC) as collateral and pay interest, which is your profit.</b>
Protocols like Aave and Venus distribute these earnings for steady yield.

Staking
Staking means putting your crypto, such as ETH, to work by locking it on the blockchain to help run the network. You earn rewards for doing this. Normally, you need 32 ETH and technical skills to stake on Ethereum by yourself.

Staking
But with services like Lido, you can stake any amount of ETH easily – no special knowledge needed. When you stake ETH using Bitget Wallet, Lido pools your funds and sends you regular ETH rewards, so you earn passive income while helping secure the network.

Hold2Earn – LSDs (Liquid Staking Derivatives)
LSDs (Liquid Staking Derivatives) let you earn rewards while keeping your assets liquid and usable. There are two main types:
1.<b>Stablecoin-based LSDs</b>: Earn stable rewards by investing in things like the U.S. Treasuries or institutional lending. Great for low-risk, steady returns (e.g. SyrupUSDC, USDY).

Where does your yield come from?
2<b>Staking-based LSDs</b>: Stake tokens (like SOL on Solana), and get a liquid token (such as JitoSOL) that still earns rewards and can be traded or used in DeFi.
