Wallet as a node
Ethereum (Reddit)

Hi! I would get your thoughts about have a local wallet that works as a node to transfer money (so no just a keychain that usually wallets are). So no external provider just your phone/computer as a very light node that operate directly into Ethereum network (validate last state trie, send propose block etc). Do you know if exists already some of this wallet and what do you think?

Which platforms are giving the best ETH staking rewards?
Ethereum (Reddit)

Hi all,

I’m looking into staking my ETH and trying to figure out which platforms are actually worth it right now. There are so many choices between exchanges, DeFi protocols, and liquid staking services, and they all advertise different APYs.

I’m not really just chasing the highest number. I’d like something that balances rewards with safety and reliability, and ideally lets me unstake without too much hassle if I ever need to.

For those of you already staking, which platforms are giving you the best ETH rewards and how has your experience been?

Where to stake 100 ETH without risk and maximize APR
Ethereum (Reddit)

Hey, I'm sitting on a big amount of Ethereum that I've been accumulating for years now, I will not say how much etc but it is more than in the noscript, I've never been staking it and noticed i could get interests passively by just delegating it, I heard about Liquid Staking, what is the best way to do it safely / where i can withdraw anytime?

If you have any suggestion/place to do it, please suggest it!

bitmine just revealed they hold 1.86 million eth. that's 1.5% of ethereum's entire supply. the institutional takeover is happening
Ethereum (Reddit)

Tldr: Bitmine just revealed 1.86M ETH ($8.1B) in treasury, 1.5% of supply. Corporate ETH treasuries now $13B. Supply shock building.

bitmine immersion technologies just dropped their treasury update: 1,866,974 eth worth over $8.1 billion.

one company now owns 1.55% of all ethereum that will ever exist.

the supply shock is real

bitmine is the world's largest corporate ethereum treasury by far:

bitmine: 1.86 million eth ($8.1 billion)

sharplink gaming: 797,700 eth ($3.4 billion)

they literally hold more than double the second-largest corporate holder.

aggressive accumulation

bitmine added 373,000 eth in a single week last month - nearly $1.6 billion worth. their stock is up 41% while they systematically corner the market.

cathie wood's ark invest just invested another $15.6 million, bringing total investment to over $300 million.

the network effect:

bitmine isn't alone:

yunfeng financial (jack ma's company) bought 10,000 eth

the ether machine raised $654 million, collecting 150,000 eth

corporate ethereum treasuries now total $13 billion

the math is insane:

when you combine:
1.5% held by one company

30% of eth staked and locked

other corporate treasuries accumulating

how much liquid ethereum is actually left?

my take

retail trades daily candles while institutions systematically remove ethereum from circulation forever. we're watching supply get cornered in real time.
