Staking & MEV
STAKING & MEV
Institutional ETH staking + LST liquidity arbitrage + cross-domain MEV — push ETH base yield (~3.5%) toward ETH + 5% via LST arb and MEV harvesting.
Transparency
Some execution / positions are on-chain (verifiable); the rest is handled by off-chain systems (signalled only via the reporter).
The F* protocol community has reviewed and confirmed the integrator's transparency claim.
LST balances (stETH/wstETH/weETH) are on-chain verifiable; MEV take-out requires an off-chain reporter.

HUMAN REVIEW (1-5)
Steady ETH-denominated yield with low maintenance overhead.
ETH staking's base yield has slid from 4% in 2024 to ~3.5% in 2026 — but LST liquidity arb, cross-domain MEV, and re-staking (EigenLayer / Symbiotic) compress that loss back. Staking & MEV is a yield-enhancement sleeve for funds that hold ETH, without changing the directional exposure.
