From Jan. 20 to Jan. 26, the Buffer Pool recorded a net inflow of 15,005 ETH. Liquidity conditions continue to remain stable, with strong user participation continuing from the Bybit On-Chain Earn side, surpassing 83.59K+ cumulative new mETH mints since the campaign’s launch.
On the validator side, no new validators were created last week. An additional 2,041 validators remain in the creation queue, temporarily impacting reported APY due to rolling yield calculations. Staking yield is expected to normalize as the activation backlog clears in grouped batches over the next month.

About Our Buffer Pool Upgrade:
The Buffer Pool upgrade allocates ~20% of protocol TVL to Aave as ETH supply, earning interest in addition to native ETH staking yield. This design uses Aave as a liquid backstop for the Buffer Pool, supporting efficient mETH-to-ETH redemptions, typically within ~24 hours under normal conditions.
