According to GlobeNewswire, Sharplink (Nasdaq: SBET), an Ethereum treasury company, announced that it will stake $200 million worth of ETH through Lido, the largest liquid staking protocol on Ethereum, to enhance the yield capability of the company's ETH assets. Sharplink stated that after this staking, the company will receive wrapped staked ETH (wstETH) representing the staked ETH and its yields, which will be custodied by institutional-grade digital asset custodian Anchorage Digital.This configuration will further expand Sharplink's existing ETH staking and restaking strategies. Lido is currently one of the largest liquid staking protocols on Ethereum, with approximately $16.5 billion staked on the platform. Its wstETH token has been integrated by over 100 protocols, with about $10 billion used as collateral in DeFi.

This collaboration will diversify the company's treasury strategy and connect to one of the most liquid and widely used assets in the Ethereum DeFi ecosystem. Vasiliy Shapovalov, Executive Director of Lido Labs Foundation, stated that Sharplink's increased use of Ethereum's native staking protocol and DeFi ecosystem reflects support for the Ethereum application ecosystem.

Joseph Chalom, CEO of the Ethereum treasury company SharpLink, posted in opposition to Ethereum Improvement Proposal EIP-8363. According to his disclosure, the current network issues new ETH to validators as staking rewards at a variable yield rate of about 2.75%. If the proposal is passed, it will be implemented in phases over approximately a year and a half, gradually destroying part of the issuance rewards as the staking amount increases. When about 50% of ETH is staked, the staking yield will drop to 0%, and validators will only be able to rely on transaction fees, which currently account for only 15% of staking rewards, to sustain themselves.Chalom presented four points of opposition:Staking yield is the factual benchmark for all on-chain interest rates. The approximately $35 billion TVL of liquid staking tokens is the core collateral for on-chain lending. A yield of zero will raise on-chain capital costs, making actual yields approach or even become negative. Collateral will migrate to assets that still generate yields, and independent stakers and small to medium operators will be the first to be squeezed out.The native yield characteristic is precisely the key reason institutions choose ETH over Bitcoin. Erasing this difference is equivalent to voluntarily giving up its competitive advantage just as ETH is outperforming Bitcoin.Issuance is not a cost to external parties but a transfer of value to security maintainers and builders within the network. Destroying it is a destruction of value rather than a redistribution of this portion of value.The current timing is the worst; Ethereum is in a rising phase of institutional adoption, and destruction incentives will suppress this wave of adoption momentum.He stated that SharpLink agrees with the proposal authors' goal of making ETH scarce and stabilizing the staking rate at a reasonable level, but believes this should be achieved through the existing base fee destruction mechanism rather than altering the economic foundation of the protocol.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that Signal recently announced it is exploring allowing users to register accounts without a phone number. He welcomed this move, believing it helps reduce reliance on the highly oligopolistic system of phone numbers, lowers the identity security risks associated with SIM card swaps, and makes it more difficult for governments to pressure Signal to ban users based on nationality.Vitalik also pointed out that while this initiative is better for privacy protection than the current situation, it only achieves "confidentiality" and does not reach true anonymity, as metadata such as message sending time, frequency, and recipients could still be used for identity correlation. He believes that with the development of artificial intelligence technology, long-lasting anonymous accounts are becoming outdated, and the only defensible form of privacy is "message-by-message uncorrelatable," meaning that no one other than the sender and receiver knows the identities of the communicating parties. This direction is currently being explored and advanced by new communication tools and mixing network projects such as Session and SimpleX. Additionally, protection against spam and denial-of-service attacks will become the next key issues to address.
