OPUS Pool, powered by Stakewise, enables you to stake any amount of ETH with Chorus One, mint osETH, and directly deposit into EigenLayer in one flow. With the launch of Delegation on Eigenlayer you can now easily delegate your restaked position to Chorus One with a single click of a button.
Not only that, users may bring in liquid staking tokens (LST's) from any external platform, including osETH, wbETH, rETH, cbETH, stETH, oETH , ankrETH , swETH, ETHx, and directly restake with EigenLayer if they wish to do so.

OPUS Pool facilitates greater participation in securing the network but also allows a wider range of Chorus One stakers to earn rewards and gain access to a suite of benefits, including top-tier MEV yields, low fees, and the assurance of enterprise-grade security, among others.
Opus Pool brings in a host of benefits for users. Let’s take a brief look at what you stand to gain.
1. Stake any amount of ETH and mint osETH
OPUS Pool enables a user to stake any amount of ETH (no 32 ETH minimum requirements) and receive rewards instantly. Additionally, users have the ability to mint osETH, a liquid staking derivative, and use it in DeFi or deposit into EigenLayer to gain additional rewards directly on OPUS Pool in one go.
2. Low Fees
OPUS Pool sets itself apart from current liquid staking protocols by offering users the advantage of highly competitive staking fees. At just 5%, our fees are among the lowest in the industry, making it more accessible for a broader spectrum of users to stake their ETH and earn rewards.
3. Top-tier MEV Rewards
As pioneers in MEV research, our latest ace, Adagio - an MEV-Boost client, allows for more efficient interactions with Ethereum’s transaction supply chain, directly enhancing MEV rewards for stakers. Fully integrated with OPUS Pool validators, Adagio ensures that anyone staking on OPUS Pool can benefit from these increased MEV rewards.

4. Restake osETH, stETH, cbETH, rETH with EigenLayer in One Go.
OPUS Pool offers a unique feature: users can deposit not only osETH minted through OPUS Pool but also liquid staking derivatives like stETH, cbETH, and rETH minted on other platforms, directly into EigenLayer.
The OPUS SDK: In addition to the benefits mentioned above, our Institutional clients can leverage the OPUS SDK to integrate ETH staking directly into their UI, providing their customers with all the benefits of the OPUS Pool seamlessly. To know more, please reach out to staking@chorus.one.

6. Once you click on Burn, you will be prompted to sign the transaction in your wallet. Upon signing, you will have successfully completed the burn process
1. To deposit your osETH, or any accepted staked ETH into EigenLayer including wbETH, rETH, cbETH, stETH, oETH , ankrETH , swETH, ETHx, click on ‘Restake’ in the menu bar and select the asset you wish to deposit.

4. You will be prompted to sign the transaction in your wallet. Once you do that, you will have successfully restaked to Eigenlayer. You can go back to the dashboard to delegate your assets to Chorus One or view the summary of your staked position.
1. Eigenlayer recently launched their delegation manager contract and enabled staker delegations. This will allow anyone with restaked ETH or restaked LSTs to delegate their restaked position to an operator of their choice. To delegate your stake to Chorus One, head over to the dashboard by clicking on the Dashboard button on the left navigation bar.
2. In case you have not already delegated to another operator, you can click on the Delegate to Chorus One button.
3. You will be prompted to sign a transaction in your wallet. Once you sign, you will see the following screen. Congratulations your restake position is now successfully delegated
4. Alternative, you can go directly to Eigenlayer App - https://app.eigenlayer.xyz/operator and search for Chorus One operator
5. Click on the Chorus One card that shows up
6. If you have not previously delegated to any operator, you will see a Delegate button on the right of the screen. You will also see a message “You currently have a restaked balance that is not delegated”. Click on the delegate button and sign the transaction in the wallet.
7. Congratulations you have successfully delegated your stake
Switching node operators means moving your restaked funds from supporting the original node operator supported AVSs to Chorus One supported AVSs.
Note: Switching operator requires you to sign 3 transactions. The first transaction queues the withdrawal of your restaked assets. This is a prerequisite of the Undelegation function. The second transaction undelegates your restaked position. The final transaction delegates to Chorus One. You will need to restake your assets again after you switch the operator. You may not be able to restake your assets until Eigenlayer reopens the deposit cap.
2. Click on Switch Operator and sign the transaction in the wallet
3. You will see another transaction pop up to undelegate from the operator. Sign the undelegation transaction
4. Finally you will see your wallet prompt you to sign the delegation transaction which delegates to Chorus One. This is the final transaction in this process
5. Once the transaction is confirmed you will have successfully delegated to Chorus One. Make sure to go back to the restaking tab and start restaking your assets
2. Enter the amount of ETH you would like to unstake and hit the Unstake button
Note: If you minted osETH at any point any time against your staked position, you might have to burn that amount to unstake all your ETH
3. You will be prompted to sign the unstake transaction in your wallet. You have successfully unstaked your position. Once you unstake your ETH enters the withdrawal queue. You will see a progress bar right below the success message that lets you know the status of your withdrawable stake. Once it becomes ready for withdrawal you will see a button to claim the stake back into your wallet.
4. You can come back to the Unstake tab at a later point and check the status of your withdrawal.
