pSTAKE Finance (PSTAKE) is the governance and utility token of pSTAKE, a liquid
staking protocol that enables users to stake assets like ATOM, XPRT, OSMO, BNB, and others to receive liquid staking tokens (LSTs) while maintaining

smart contracts and focused on maximizing staking yields and accessibility.
