Aave founder Stani Kulechov announced that the DeFi United initiative has secured sufficient funds to restore the full backing of rsETH following the April 18 LayerZero bridge exploit. Execution remains pending, subject to governance votes and the finalization of indicative agreements. Aave has also aligned with KelpDAO and LayerZero on the technical steps required to carry out the recovery plan. Over the weekend, Aave submitted a governance proposal to the Arbitrum DAO requesting the release of 30,765.67 ETH frozen by the Arbitrum Security Council. Read more →

Consensys and Joseph Lubin committed up to 30,000 ETH in financial support toward the DeFi United rsETH recovery effort, with SharpLink joining in a strategic advisory capacity. The contribution is particularly significant given that the 30,765.67 ETH frozen by the Arbitrum Security Council will not be liquid until the governance process is completed. The Babylon Foundation is also depositing 3M USDT and Tron is depositing 20M USDT into Aave to assist with liquidity. Read more →

Bitmine Immersion Technologies crossed 5 million ETH in holdings, announcing a total of 5,078,386 ETH valued at approximately $12 billion at current prices. The milestone makes Bitmine the largest Ethereum treasury in the world and represents 4.21% of the total ETH supply, putting the company 84% of the way toward its stated goal of acquiring 5% of all ETH in circulation.

Of the 5.078 million ETH held, 3,701,589 ETH, roughly 73% of its total holdings, is currently staked, generating annualized staking revenues of $264 million at a yield of 3.033%. At full deployment, Bitmine projects annual staking rewards of approximately $363 million. The staking operations run through MAVAN, Bitmine's institutional-grade validator network, which the company recently launched and plans to open to external institutional investors and custodians.

Consensys and Joseph Lubin have committed up to 30,000 ETH in financial support toward the DeFi United rsETH recovery effort. SharpLink is also participating in a strategic advisory capacity. The contribution is particularly significant given that the 30,765.67 ETH frozen by the Arbitrum Security Council will not be liquid for approximately 49 days pending governance approval.

The rsETH backing shortfall is now effectively covered by a combination of previously announced and newly confirmed commitments. These include contributions from Aave DAO, Lido, EtherFi, Ethena, Mantle, and Compound Finance, which committed 3,000 ETH. The Babylon Foundation is also depositing 3 million USDT into Aave, and Tron is depositing 20 million USDT into Aave to assist with liquidity. The stablecoin deposits have helped ease utilization rates slightly, allowing USDT lenders to begin withdrawing.
