ETH Treasury Firms Lean On Staking As ETFs Pressure DATs

Cointelegraph
Ethereum treasury firms are increasingly adopting staking strategies to maintain value as spot ETFs diminish the appeal of passive crypto exposure.

Summary

A report from Everstake highlights that Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies are under pressure to move beyond passive Ether holding. With the advent of spot crypto ETFs offering investors direct exposure, firms are shifting toward staking, DeFi lending, and MEV capture to justify their valuations. Staking now accounts for approximately 60% of revenue for firms disclosing such data, though experts note that active yield strategies alone may not fully offset risks like asset volatility and operational costs.
