Blockdaemon Adds Morpho Vaults Curated by Gauntlet to Earn Stack for Institutional Yield Access
Blockdaemon is adding Morpho vaults, curated by Gauntlet, to Earn Stack to give institutional clients access to onchain stablecoin, ETH, and BTC yield across Ethereum Mainnet, Base, and Arbitrum. At launch, this will cover the full range of Gauntlet-curated Morpho vaults on those networks, totaling 50+ vaults.
This gives institutions a simpler way to access DeFi yield through one platform instead of navigating a fragmented market across many protocols, strategies, and risk profiles. More information is available in the full blog.

Expanding Institutional Access to Solana Staking with Blockdaemon Earn Stack
Blockdaemon now enables institutional access to Solana staking through its Earn Stack and validator infrastructure. This further grows the opportunity for institutions to participate in Solana with secure, non custodial solutions built for scale. The full overview is available here.

Ethereum Validators Performance - February 2026
Ethereum staking conditions remained confident in February as validator entry pressure eased from January highs and execution-layer rewards strengthened further.
Blockdaemon’s validator fleet delivered a 3.23% Protocol Reward Rate (PRR) versus the 2.90% CESR, outperforming the network by 33 basis points and ranking 2nd among institutional staking providers for the month. Outperformance was driven primarily by the execution layer, where rewards rose ~55% month-over-month and recovered ~130% versus December’s lows.
Download the February 2026 Ethereum Validators Performance Report for a detailed analysis of validator queue dynamics, execution-layer and MEV trends, protocol roadmap updates, and Blockdaemon’s performance relative to network benchmarks.

Solana Validator Performance - February 2026
Solana staking conditions remained steady in February, and Blockdaemon’s validator continued to outperform. We delivered a 7.00% Protocol Reward Rate (PRR), finishing 33 basis points above the ~6.67% network average. This marked Blockdaemon’s highest reward rate in eight months, and Blockdaemon ranked second across all monitored institutional operators.
February also brought meaningful ecosystem progress, including continued advancements in the validator client landscape as delay games became a frequent occurrence, alongside consistent U.S. SOL ETF inflows with total U.S. SOL ETF AUM now at approximately $1 billion. Institutional momentum also grew following Morgan Stanley’s S-1 filing for a Solana ETF.
