EF don finish stake 70,000 ETH, total $143M
Ethereum Foundation (EF) don don finish dia ETH staking target we be 70,000 ETH. For April 3, dem put about 45,000 ETH (≈$93M) for one on-chain session, we bring the total we dem don stake reach roughly 70,000 ETH, wey dey worth about $143M for current price near $2,055.
EF start the plan on Feb. 24 with initial 2,016 ETH deposit and talk say staking rewards go flow back to im treasury. Before this, the foundation bin still move big amount enter Ethereum Beacon Deposit Contract (22,517 ETH). The April 3 transaction dem describe am as the final step to close the target.
The setup dem talk say na open-source Attestant tooling (Dirk and Vouch) dem use for distributed signing and validator infrastructure. EF dey frame this shift as both way to get yield and to make Ethereum proof-of-stake security strong pass before.
For traders, the main thing be say risk of near-term selling pressure don reduce compared to how treasury dey behave before wey include periodic ETH sales. With estimated 3%–4% annual yield, the ETH staking position fit fund about $4M–$6M per year for protocol R&D and grants without fresh token sales. Make una watch follow-on withdrawals and reward flow to confirm whether selling pressure remain small.

EF don finish im plan to stake 70,000 ETH, e don shift di treasury exposure from di regular ETH sales to yield-bearing staking. Dis fit reduce short-term sell-pressure risk for ETH and fit boost sentiment small, because di estimated staking returns (about 3%–4% per year) fit cover operations without extra token sales. But traders still need confirmation from later withdrawal activity and how reward flows behave, and staking no dey create immediate spot demand. So di net effect on ETH price likely go more neutral than clearly bullish or bearish.
