ETH Liquid Staking Derivatives

With Ethereum 2.0 staking now live, many ETH investors have turned to liquid staking derivatives like Lido and Rocket Pool.

ETH 2.0 Total Value Staked Surpasses $46 Billion

The total amount locked in the ETH 2.0 contract has been on a steady rise since the beginning of the year. With Ethereum moving to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, validators have to lock their digital assets through staking to participate in the consensus process and continue adding blocks to the blockchain. This has led to the growth of “liquid staking” derivatives that allow holders to stake their ETH while still maintaining liquidity.

According to data from Glassnode, a blockchain data and intelligence platform, the cumulative amount currently deposited to the ETH 2.0 contract is now at an all-time high of over $45 billion. 

This amounts to over 20% of the total ETH supply now being locked in the ETH 2.0 contract. The progress made so far points to a very promising future for Ethereum and its transition to Ethereum 2.0.
