A comprehensive overview of Ethereum staking by Galaxy, covering types, risks, rewards, future projections, and more.





As blockchain networks continue to evolve, Ethereum staking is gaining significant attention. According to a comprehensive report from Galaxy, Ethereum stakeholders must navigate an environment that is both full of opportunities and risks. This report is the first in a three-part series that explores various staking activities, including re-staking and liquid re-staking.

Ethereum Staking Overview

As of July 15, 2024, Ethereum (ETH) holders have staked $111 billion worth of ETH, or 28% of the total ETH supply. This staked amount is often referred to as Ethereum’s “security budget.” Stakers contribute to the security of the network and are rewarded through protocol issuance, priority tips, and maximum extractable value (MEV). However, the high demand for staking has led developers to consider changing the issuance policy to manage this trend.

Types of stakers

There are six main types of Ethereum users who earn rewards by staking. The most common are managed stakers, who delegate their ETH to professional staking node operators. Liquid staking protocols such as Lido also play a significant role, with around 29% of all ETH stakes delegated through these platforms.

Risks of Staking

Staking risks vary depending on the method used.

  • Direct Staking: As we operate our own staking hardware and software, there are risks such as staking penalties and slashing.
  • Delegated Staking: Delegating your ETH to another entity adds counterparty risk.
  • Liquid Staking: Delegating ETH and receiving liquid tokens adds liquidity risk.

Regulatory risks also loom large, especially for delegation and liquid staking methods. Protocol risks include penalties for offline nodes, early slashing, and correlation slashing penalties.

Staking Rewards

Stakers can earn new ETH issuance, priority tipping, and around 4% APY derived from MEV on their staked ETH deposits. However, rewards have decreased over the past two years due to increased staking and decreased transaction activity on the network.

Staking ratio prediction

Ethereum’s staking rate is expected to exceed 30% by 2024. Liquid’s staking service has streamlined the staking process, bypassing common restrictions such as entry queues. Developers are considering changing the issuance policy to curb staking demand and maintain a balanced network.

Discussion of change of issue

Developers are considering several options to reduce Ethereum’s staking rate, including a short-term reduction in staking yields and a long-term targeting of the stake rate. The discussion has been contentious, with concerns about the profitability of staking providers and the lack of data-driven analysis of the proposed changes.

conclusion

The Ethereum staking economy is still experimental and evolving. As the network undergoes more changes, stakeholders must carefully evaluate the risks and rewards associated with staking. While frequent changes to staking dynamics become more difficult as the stakeholder base grows, Ethereum remains a relatively new proof-of-stake blockchain that is expected to evolve significantly in the coming years.
