Boost your staking game with Ether.fi
Ether.fi is changing how Ethereum staking works by giving users full control of their keys while unlocking new yield opportunities. With its native token ETHFI, the protocol not only powers governance but also incentivizes a decentralized, user-first approach to staking. And now, ETHFI is available for buying and selling on Bitso.
What is Ether.fi?
Ether.fi is a non-custodial liquid restaking protocol that allows ETH holders to stake without giving up control of their keys. When you stake ETH, you receive eETH, a liquid staking token that earns Ethereum staking rewards while being usable in DeFi. This dual functionality allows users to generate additional yields through EigenLayer restaking, supporting the security of multiple blockchain services.
Ether.fi’s mission is to make staking safer, more efficient, and more decentralized. By removing contract upgradability and offering true key ownership, the protocol reduces trust risks while boosting rewards.
What makes ETHFI special?
Unlike typical staking platforms, ether.fi empowers users with non-custodial restaking and enhanced capital efficiency. eETH can circulate freely in DeFi, earning multiple income streams, while ETHFI serves as the governance token shaping the protocol’s evolution. Holders can vote on proposals, reward structures, and integrations, making ETHFI central to the network’s growth.
A closer look at the founders
Ether.fi was founded by Mike Silagadze, a seasoned entrepreneur known for building Top Hat, an edtech platform. His vision for ether.fi is rooted in decentralization and user empowerment, ensuring that staking rewards and network security remain in the hands of the community rather than centralized actors.
Real-world example
Maria, an ETH holder, wants to earn staking rewards without locking her tokens away. Using ether.fi, she stakes her ETH and gets eETH, which she uses across DeFi apps while still earning yields. She also holds ETHFI, giving her voting power in shaping the future of the protocol.
How to buy ETHFI on Bitso
- Log in or sign up for your Bitso account.
- Use the conversion feature to swap your local currency (MXN, ARS, BRL, COP, or USD) for ETHFI.
- Track its market performance directly from the app.
- Enter the amount, review the details, and confirm your transaction.
Note: ETHFI is only available through conversions on Bitso. It is not supported on Bitso Alpha, and deposits/withdrawals from external wallets are disabled. However, you can send and receive ETHFI between Bitso users via Bitso Transfer.
