Pledge Economic Model Upgrade Preview
The meeting implies clues for the WCT Staking 2.0 upgrade, which will combine the LST mechanism to allow users to stake ETH (such as Lido stETH) while earning WCT returns, addressing the volatility risk of single-token staking. The new model could leverage billions of ETH staking funds, with annual returns potentially jumping from 15% to over 35%, siphoning off SOL and ADA staking capital. However, high returns depend on protocol revenue growth, and attention should be paid to the commercialization path announced by EthCC.
