ethereum Staking Tokens Soar Amid BlackRock’s ETF Ambitions
Lido Finance, the leading liquid staking provider, offers an innovative ethereum staking method. Users receive “stETH” tokens, which reflect the price of ethereum while they can be used in DeFi. Second-place RocketPool has seen its token rise 20% to $32.83 in 24 hours.
RocketPool offers “RETH”, similar to Lido’s stETH. The increase in value of staking tokens is linked to BlackRock’s new “iShares ethereum Trust” entity. This move suggests an ethereum ETF, boosting ethereum/”>ethereum price exceeds $2,000 for the first time since July. While not an official ethereum ETF filing, BlackRock’s actions reflect its strategy ahead of the bitcoin ETF filing, prompting analysts to draw parallels.
BlackRock’s foray into digital asset ETFs, including ethereum, stands out for its success story. This marks a significant step in the integration of cryptocurrencies into mainstream finance. BlackRock’s role may signal a new era for digital assets.
