What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Interactive Brokers began offering eligible U.S. clients the ability to stake Ethereum on October 13, 2026, marking the broker's first venture into staking services. The service, which runs through Zerohash, offers clients the chance to lock up their ETH and earn new ETH in return. The service currently returns roughly 2% annually after fees, though it lacks Securities Investor Protection Corporation coverage and carries slashing risk.
