Staking Rewards For Ethereum Shot Up In Recent Weeks With 11% APR

October 21, 2022 - Around 2 mins mins to read
Staking payouts for Ethereum have grown in recent weeks, with validators collecting greater transaction fees as a result of increasing network activity.
Staking Rewards For Ethereum Shot Up In Recent Weeks With 11% APR

According to DeFi researcher Mika Honkasalo on Twitter, the seven-day moving average for annualized staking payouts on stETH, a liquid staking token backed by ether, has risen to 5.5%. According to Lido Finance statistics, this is up from 3.5% in September.

APRs for individuals leveraging their staking earnings through services like icETH or ETHMAXI have risen to as high as 11%. This is where the tokens are used to borrow more tokens, which are then staked to increase the yield.

Increased network activity, notably in ways that result in greater costs for network validators, is the primary source of the growing yield. Maximal extractable value (MEV) activity, in which bots front-run transactions on the blockchain, has increased in particular.

Honkasalo also stated that there had been an uptick in cryptocurrency trading on Uniswap in recent weeks. This has been spearheaded by The Protocol, a token established as a joke in response to one of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin‘s recent tweets.

Because of the increased activity on Ethereum, the quantity of Ethereum has been decreasing in recent weeks, as more tokens have been burned during the transaction fee process than have been issued as validator incentives.

EthHub co-founder Anthony Sassano stated on Twitter that the quantity of Ether has not increased in the previous 30 days since the burning process has equaled the issuance.

If activity continues to rise, it may result in increased APRs and a decrease in Ether supply.
