In 2018, a group of crypto natives, traditional finance executives and venture capitalists came together to form Ether Capital. Our goal was to create a premium access point to Ethereum through the capital markets.
Since then, Ethereum’s market cap has skyrocketed to a multi-billion-dollar protocol and has the most user activity of any decentralized network. It’s also the dominant smart contract platform and backbone for unparalleled innovation, such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and decentralized finance (DeFi).
In late 2020, Ethereum began an upgrade to its infrastructure, which involved a fundamental change to how transactions are validated. The new version of Ethereum, known as Ethereum 2.0, uses a mechanism called “Proof of Stake.” With Proof of Stake, holders of ether can allocate — or “stake” — their tokens to validate transactions and secure the decentralized, permissionless network. Ether that is “staked,” generates a yield in the form of newly-minted cryptocurrency, which is rewarded to those who help validate the network.
In December 2021, Ether Capital became the first public company in the world to stake a significant amount of ether to generate an attractive yield and revenue.
As we transition from passive ownership of our assets to an operating business, we intend to use a portion of our staking revenue to build world-class tooling and infrastructure that supports the fast-growing industry.
