Grayscale Ethereum ETF Now Distributing Staking Yields

Grayscale's spot Ethereum ETF has started paying out staking rewards directly to shareholders, becoming the first U.S. regulated crypto product to pass through protocol-level income this way. This development signals a shift in how institutional investors can access on-chain yield within traditional investment vehicles.

The move represents a meaningful moment for ETH-based financial products. By enabling staking reward distribution at the ETF level, Grayscale is bridging the gap between passive holding and active yield generation—something that reshapes how investors think about their Ethereum exposure.

This breakthrough opens doors for similar products to follow suit, potentially accelerating mainstream adoption of protocol-generated income streams across the broader ETF landscape.

Grayscale has started distributing staking rewards, so institutional investors can finally earn on-chain yields through traditional products... However, I'm worried that regulators might cause trouble again later.

Grayscale's move will really push those retail investors who are still staking themselves to the brink...

Finally, someone has directly integrated staking rewards into ETFs. Now institutional investors don't have to deal with complicated on-chain operations themselves; they can just sit back and wait for the dividends.

Wow, Grayscale is really starting to distribute staking rewards? Now institutions can also earn passively. It feels like traditional finance and on-chain yields are truly merging.

Oh no, Grayscale's move is a bit late; they should have done this a long time ago.

Remember, this is the real signal that institutions are starting to participate. Once Solana follows suit, we should be ready to take off. --- Finally, someone has truly passed the gains to retail investors. Has the feeling of rebirth arrived? --- The law of conservation of energy also applies in the crypto market. Patience now is preparing for the next wave of wealth reconstruction. --- After being cut for so many years, Grayscale has surprisingly allowed us to earn just by holding tokens. This reversal caught us a bit off guard. --- Another opportunity at the bottom range. The question is, does the wallet have enough to add more positions? [Laughing with tears] --- Honestly, this is the beginning of value return. The way institutions enter determines how we should hold our positions. --- It's time to rebuild our mindset, from passive to active gains. This tests who can truly transcend the cycle. --- Waiting for it, just waiting for such a breakthrough. Now we finally see the lighthouse of hope.
