Imagine if you went to the bank and asked to withdraw $100. Your banker tells you they can either give you $99 today or debit your account for $100 today but only let you pick up the cash in a few days. That’s essentially how LSTs work today.
While you can instantly mint OETH or other LSTs with ETH, redemptions oftentimes take one unstaking epoch (27 hours) and can extend to multiple days during times of high market volatility. Users wishing to exit LSTs must either wait for the unstaking period to get back out to ETH at a 1:1 ratio or swap into ETH at a loss.
This is due to the fact that AMMs charge trading fees and because most LSTs trade slightly below peg to account for the time value of money. LSTs that permanently trade below peg essentially have a hidden exit fee. As an example, frxETH consistently trades ~0.25% below peg. This means you need to stake frxETH for around 3 weeks to break even with the yield earned through staking. This tradeoff might be tolerable for individuals who are okay being long-term holders, but it’s completely unacceptable for protocols wanting to rehypothecate their users’ funds for additional yield.
There are billions of dollars worth of ETH sitting idle on bridges, DEXs, and all over DeFi. The only way any of these protocols can reasonably rehypothecate these funds is if they have a credible way of returning 100% of those funds whenever their users ask for them back. Just like a bank doesn’t keep 100% of the funds on hand at all times, it is neither possible nor necessary to offer instant redemptions for the full amount of capital being staked. You just need enough exit liquidity to handle typical withdrawals.

The ARM aims to alleviate friction for redeeming LSTs and LRTs by offering instant, zero-slippage swaps on redeemable assets. Current redemption methods inhibit users from earning yield across ETH-denominated DeFi products, as redemptions are either too costly or too slow.
