7-day moving average (7DMA) for daily staker returns Ethereum Ethereum
+0.49%
Ethereum staker income refers to the rewards and income received by those who participate in Ethereum’s proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism for validating transactions and securing the network. This income is typically generated through block rewards and transaction fees, which are distributed proportionally based on the amount of ETH staked by the staker.
A decrease in this metric means that stakers are receiving less revenue from their network participation, which can be affected by factors such as decreased network activity leading to fewer transaction fees being paid.
This is supported by the fact that the 7DMA for the number of transactions on the Ethereum network is close to its February 2024 level, with just 1.15 million transactions on Friday, September 13, down about 13% from its yearly high in March. Meanwhile, the 7DMA for Ethereum’s on-chain transaction volume is also similar to its February level, at just $2.83 billion, down about 60% from its March yearly high and about 56% from a month ago.
