Ether.fi Approves $50 Million Buyback for ETHFI Tokens!

Ether.fi Approves $50 Million Buyback for ETHFI Tokens!

On November 5, 2025, the Ether.fi DAO approved a $50 million buyback program for ETHFI tokens. This decision was supported by an overwhelming majority of 99% from the community. The buyback will be financed by treasury revenue and will be carried out transparently on-chain. The goal of the program is to stabilize the market price of ETHFI and provide higher value to long-term holders.

The buyback program allows the Foundation to use up to $50 million to purchase ETHFI tokens, which are currently trading below $3. It will continue until the limit is reached or the price is above this threshold. Interestingly, the buybacks based on the protocol's revenue can be scaled through staking operations and DeFi integrations. All purchases are recorded publicly and comprehensibly via the Dune dashboard.

Positive impact on the market

Historical data shows that similar repurchase initiatives in the past have increased liquidity depth and stabilized prices by 15% to 20%. Ether.fi sees this repurchase as a mechanism to increase the share of protocol revenue going to repurchases as long as ETHFI trades below the threshold. According to analysts, the approval of the buyback is a strong signal of investor confidence and highlights a sustainable revenue model for Ether.fi.

In a market environment that has historically improved in November, short-term cryptocurrency return cycles could drive demand for ETHFI, especially during the current DeFi recovery phases. Ether.fi is also rapidly expanding in the DeFi and institutional space, further strengthening its market position.

Advanced integrations and partnerships

The entire Ether.fi ecosystem has now reached a total value of over $700 million. This is supported by integrations with companies such as Plasma, Aave and FalconX, among others. Additionally, the “defibanking” initiative powered by the Ether.fi Cash Card has processed millions in daily spending volume. This initiative offers cashback rewards as well as fiat transfer options.

Additional partnerships with Visa, Sharplink, EigenCloud and Anchorage Digital solidify Ether.fi's position as a DeFi-native banking alternative. Continuous development and strategic focus on trust and transparency could ensure Ether.fi's long-term success in the rapidly changing crypto market. The upcoming buyback actions demonstrate the project’s commitment to actively managing market conditions and preserving the value of its tokens.
