With liquid staking, users lock up real SOL and receive an equivalent amount in liquid staked SOL, such as PSOL.These liquid tokens can then be used across DeFi protocols to earn additional rewards. On the flipside, issuing liquid staked SOL increases the effective circulating supply of SOL, which may exert downward pressure on its price. Source link
