OpenWhat is Kernel
Kernel is an innovative restaking protocol initially designed for the BNB chain, with plans to evolve into a versatile multi-asset, multi-chain restaking infrastructure. It enables users to repurpose their staked assets as economic security, thereby enhancing asset utility and potential rewards.
Kernel is developed by a seasoned founding team with over 50 years of combined startup experience and expertise in Liquid Staking Token (LST) and Liquid Restaking Token (LRT) protocols. Key team members include:
- Amitej GVS (Co-Founder)
- Dheeraj Borra (Co-Founder)
Kelp is an integral part of the Kernel ecosystem, which comprises:
- Kernel: The BNB restaking layer backed by Binance (new product)
- Kelp: The existing Ethereum restaking protocol available on Kelp
- Gain: Automated vaults and yield concierge available on Kelp
While Kelp and Kernel will remain separate products focusing on their respective blockchains, they are part of the same ecosystem. We are continuously exploring ways to create synergies between them.
