First U.S. $ETH ETF with staking lands.

REX-Osprey just launched an Ethereum ETF that includes staking rewards — a first of its kind in the U.S.

This is big, mes amis. Until now, American investors could only get exposure to $ETH price action through ETFs, but staking was always left out. That meant missing one of the core features of Ethereum’s economy: earning yield by securing the network. Now, with this product under the 1940 Act (a shortcut REX loves to use), investors get both: price exposure and staking income.

To me, this changes the game. Because the narrative around $ETH has always been “digital oil,” but staking transforms it into a productive asset. Institutions being able to tap into that yield — without managing wallets, validators, slashing risks — is exactly the bridge that was missing.

It also makes $ETH stand out against $BTC ETFs. Bitcoin ETFs are pure speculative exposure, while Ethereum’s can now generate on-chain cash flows. That’s a big difference, and one Wall Street won’t ignore for long.

Feels like a quiet but decisive step toward Ethereum being recognized not just as a tech platform, but as an institutional-grade yield engine. 🚀
