Ethereum Staking Rewards to Outpace U.S. Interest Rates by 2025: FalconX

  • Ethereum’s staking rewards are expected to surpass US interest rates in 2025.
  • The Fed’s interest rates are predicted to fall below 3.75% by March 2025 and 3.5% by June 2025.
  • The gap between Ethereum staking yields and traditional risk-free rates would possibly narrow.

FalconX’s latest report predicts Ethereum’s staking rewards will exceed U.S. interest rates by 2025. Experts expect Ethereum’s value to surge with investor demand as the Federal Reserve’s interest rate drops.

Current Ethereum staking yields are around 3.2%, as of the latest data. The Fed’s interest rates are forecast to fall below 3.75% by March 2025 and 3.5% by June 2025. This could significantly influence and boost Ethereum’s staking rewards.

With falling interest rates and rising transaction activities on the Ethereum network, the gap between Ethereum staking yields and traditional risk-free rates will likely narrow, making Ethereum staking more attractive to investors seeking higher returns. Analysts believe this combination will make Ethereum’s yield gap positive within the next six months.

Transaction Fees Fuel Staking Rewards

YCharts data showed a remarkable uptick in Ethereum’s transaction fees in the last week. The transaction fee, which plays a major role in staking rewards, jumped to a two-month high before falling to an average of $0.80 per transaction. Notably, higher transaction fees boost staking yields, guaranteeing attractive returns for ETH stakers.

In a note, FalconX’s Research Head David Lawant explained that Ethereum staking rates were substantially higher than risk-free rates for a long period towards the end of 2022—during the crypto winter following the FTX debacle.

Addressing the possible impact of Ethereum’s staking rates on ETH price, Lawant said, “We still have yet to see what juicy staking rates spread versus the risk-free rate amid a full-fledged crypto bull market for the price of Ethereum.” 

As of press time, Ethereum (ETH) is valued at $2,642, marking a slight dip of 0.92% in a day. However, the token has experienced a marginal increase of more than 4% over the last 30 days. Despite the comparatively stable price, Ethereum shows a notable transaction volume over the last day, up 39%.
