Ep. 680 The Future of Staking: Marinade Finance CCO on Solana, ETFs & MNDE Token
CRYPTO 101
Sustainability of Staking Yield
Bryce questions yield dynamics and Hadley explains Solana's inflation-driven rewards and that current APY (~8%) can change with protocol decisions.
In this episode, Bryce Paul interviews Hadley Stern, Chief Commercial Officer of Marinade Finance, a leading Solana staking platform. They discuss how Marinade enables decentralized staking, the evolution of staking in Solana versus Ethereum, the role of the MNDE token, institutional adoption, ETF strategies, and lessons Stern brought from his leadership at Fidelity Digital Assets. The conversation highlights liquid vs. native staking, decentralization benefits, yield sustainability, and the future of staking in both retail and institutional markets.
