# Stake with Lido

SuperStaker uses the Lido liquid staking protocol to stake ETH that you supply, plus ETH proceeds borrowed from Aave.

### Target LTV

In addition to the amount of ETH you want to stake, you also specify at target LTV (loan-to-value) ratio. The LTV determines how much will be borrowed on your behalf. The current maximum LTV for `stETH` on Aave is 69%.  The higher the LTV you choose, the lower your Aave Health Factor will be, and the higher your [risk](/basics/risk.md). The higher the LTV chosen, the higher your net APR will be.

After SuperStaking, you will have debt approximately equal to the LTV chosen. For example, if you choose 69%, then the Aave debt will be \~69% the value of the supplied (deposited) `stETH` in Aave.

The debt will be initiated via an Aave flash loan.
