For me there are three "financial" reasons to hold ETH.

1. All ETH benefits from burned tx fees through EIP-1559.

2. Staked ETH earns validator rewards.

3. Staked ETH earns MEV.

No one& #39;s even begun to think about the implications of number 3. Validator rewards on steroids.

Ok but putting the pump aside, does this make sense @hasufl ? Couldn& #39;t this grow to be a really really big incentive to start buying and validating ETH, if MEV stuff was baked into the staking software?

Oops too late, tweet is already going viral. I guess that means it& #39;s true whether it& #39;s accurate or not.
