on-chain analytics platform Arkham posted on X, stating that the Ethereum Foundation has unstaked approximately $48.9 million worth of ETH. Tracking data shows that the Ethereum Foundation has deposited WSTETH into Lido's unstETH contract and will receive the corresponding ETH once the unlocking process is complete.The market's focus is on whether the Ethereum Foundation will proceed to sell the ETH obtained from this unstaking. Previously, the Ethereum Foundation has sold ETH on multiple occasions for operational fund management, drawing ongoing market attention to potential selling pressure.
According to on-chain analyst Ember (@EmberCN), the rsETH incident on April 18 resulted in a funding shortfall of approximately 68,900 ETH (around $160 million): the hacker collateralized rsETH to borrow 99,600 ETH; after Arbitrum recovered 30,700 ETH, the remaining funds were fully converted by the hacker into BTC. The incident has now entered the remediation phase. Aave is coordinating the establishment of a “DeFi United” relief fund, which has so far received cumulative donations totaling 13,500 ETH (approximately $31.45 million). Donors include Lido Finance (2,500 stETH), ether.fi Foundation (5,000 ETH), Aave founder Stani Kulechov (5,000 ETH), Golem Foundation (1,000 ETH), as well as LayerZero and Ink Foundation (amounts undisclosed).
According to on-chain analyst Yujin (@EmberCN), of the 5,000 ETH planned for sale by the Ethereum Foundation, 3,750 ETH have already been sold, generating approximately $8.3 million in proceeds at an average sale price of $2,214 per ETH.
