The Ethereum liquid re-staking protocol Ether.fi announced that it will provide a total value of $3 billion worth of Ethereum as "validator liquidity" to the ETHGas market over the next three years, funded by the 2.8 million staked Ethereum it manages.

ETHGas is a futures market for Ethereum block space that allows for the advance purchase of block space to ensure transaction execution. This initiative aims to enhance validator earnings by helping validators capture more maximum extractable value (MEV) through the sale of block space commitments, resulting in higher and more predictable returns. ETHGas has received institutional investments from firms like Polychain Capital and has launched the governance token GWEI, which currently has a market capitalization of approximately $120 million.

Ether.fi's native token ETHFI has a market capitalization of about $332 million. This move will provide developers and enterprises with more predictable transaction costs and execution times, promoting the development of Ethereum as a global institutional capital settlement layer.
