"Our collaboration with CoinFund on CESR delivers a critical benchmark for Ethereum staking, offering institutions a trusted and standardized rate," said Alan Campbell, president at CoinDesk Indices.
Dan Husher, chief data product officer at Lukka, added that the deal illustrates a "higher standard for institutional crypto data."
Ethereum staking has ballooned since the blockchain transitioned from a proof-of-work to proof-of-stake consensus mechanism in September 2022. There is currently $37 billion in total value locked (TVL) across liquid staking protocols, which let users earn additional yield through the issuance of liquid staking tokens (LSTs).
"Ethereum’s change to proof of stake transformed blockchain security from a commitment of computing power to a financial commitment," said Andy Baehr, CFA, head of product and research atCoinDesk Indices. "Since the staking rate, effectively a utility yield for posting ETH to the network, is accessible and measurable, it becomes an integral part of the investment case for ETH."
