The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has proposed a rule change that would allow the Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) and Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust (EZET) to stake their ETH holdings.
This change would enable the trusts to earn rewards on their staked ETH while keeping the assets under the custody of their current custodian.
Grayscale's staking proposal aims to make the Ethereum investment vehicles more appealing to institutional investors seeking staking benefits and contribute to the security of the Ethereum network.
If approved, the proposal could enhance the appeal of ETHE and EZET, potentially reducing outflows and boosting their performance.
