# Liquid Staking in Blockchain Operating System (BOS)

Historical — stake ETH via NEAR Social / BOS widget (prefer metapool.app)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Historical / alternate UI** — The primary way to stake ETH and receive **spETH** is [metapool.app](https://www.metapool.app). The NEAR Social / BOS widget steps below are kept for reference and may still work, but they are not the main product path.
{% endhint %}

### NEAR Blockchain Operating System (BOS)

With the decision to bring the Ethereum and NEAR communities closer together, Meta Pool developed a widget to stake ETH and receive spETH on the NEAR Blockchain Operating System (BOS) / NEAR Social.

#### How does it work? (BOS widget)

1. Go to <https://near.social/meta-pool-official.near/widget/MetaPoolStakeEth>.
