ether.fi vs Sky Lending

Ether.fi offers non‑custodial liquid staking where users mint eETH while retaining full control of validator withdrawal credentials via a smart‑contract escrow. Validators are run by a professional operator marketplace, and any user can migrate their keys or exit to the beacon chain 1:1. Launched in March 2023, ether.fi holds over 800 k ETH and shares validator bribe rewards with stakers through the ETHfi governance token.

Sky Lending is the flagship product of StableLab’s Sky ecosystem, enabling over‑collateralised borrowing of sUSDS and real‑world asset stablecoins. Interest accrues per‑second and can be paid in advance, allowing negative interest or fixed‑term loans. An on‑chain risk oracle adjusts LTV caps daily based on market volatility metrics sourced from Chainlink and Pyth.
