Demand in liquid staking derivatives

The growth in Frax Shares can be attributed to the increase in interest for liquid staking derivatives (LSDs) in the recent past.

A recent tweet by a crypto user noted that;

Frax holds a unique advantage due to their CVX holdings which can enable deep liquidity.

LSDs can be considered a leveraged bet on ETH while they grow market share of staked ETH.

LSDs are continuing to show their strength in this market and look to continue their growth.
