EtherFi shifts weETH to pure liquid staking, ending risky restaking amid DeFi security concerns.

EtherFi has restructured its weETH token by removing all restaking exposure, making it a pure liquid staking token (LST). This change aims to eliminate bundled risks associated with liquid restaking, which has faced security challenges such as major DeFi hacks and regulatory clean-ups. Despite a shrinking liquid restaking market, EtherFi still controls about half of it with $11.4 billion in locked value. Analysts view this move as a significant shift in the DeFi space, signaling a cautious approach to risk amid evolving market conditions and security frameworks.
