Ethereum's (ETH<\/a>) move to proof-of-stake \u2014 which would introduce staking rewards \u2014 is expected to drive institutional interest in the token post-Merge, Chainalysis said in its latest report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The blockchain security company also expects ETH to behave like bonds and commodities, which would give institutional investors further confidence in the token.<\/p>\n

Staking rewards could lure institutional investors<\/h2>\n

Institutional investors may be enticed by the high staking rewards, which could rise to as high as 15% annually. For comparison, U.S. treasury bonds offer investors a 3.5% return.<\/p>\n

The report noted that institutional investors \u2014 wallets staking over $1 million ETH \u2014 have increased over 5x in the past year. According to the report, institutional investors rose to 1100 as of August 2022, compared to less than 250 in January 2021.<\/p>\n

With the Merge designed to cut Ethereum's energy use by 99%, Chainalysis said institutional investors with sustainability commitments would become more comfortable with the asset.<\/p>\n

Merge sets the stage for future Ethereum improvements<\/h2>\n

Chainalysis wrote that the Merge would serve as a precursor to further improvements being planned for the Ethereum ecosystem<\/p>\n

According to the blockchain analytical company, scalability improvements targeted at improving Ethereum's speed and lowering its high gas fees are imminent post-merge.\u00a0These changes would make:<\/p>\n

“Ether a more attractive asset to hold, and therefore to stake as well.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin previously said<\/a> the Merge would only make Ethereum 55% complete. Buterin added that the other stages of the blockchain network evolution are “the surge, the verge, the purge, and the splurge.”<\/p>\n

Bye-bye to miners<\/h2>\n

The Chainalysis report noted that Ethereum miners would have to find another network to use their equipment, and Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) is not a viable option.<\/p>\n

The report explained that Ethereum mining equipment could not effectively mine Bitcoin because Bitcoin miners use ASIC machines, while Ethereum is ASIC-resistant and uses GPUs.<\/p>\n

The proof-of-stake switch is expected to hurt both miners and GPU manufacturers. Ethereum mining is responsible for 97% of all GPU mining activities, while other networks suitable for GPU mining only have a market cap of $4.1 billion.<\/p>\n

However, Ethereum miners can still take advantage of several services and protocols built on Ethereum, like Render Network and Livepeer (LPT<\/a>), which rely on GPU powers for specific tasks and reward the operators.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, miners can also begin to mine other assets like Ergo (ERG<\/a>), Ethereum Classic (ETC<\/a>), etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
