ETHGas Delivers Base-Layer Speed Gains in Its First 90 Days

ETHGas spent its first 90 days converting product strategy into market impact: it launched the $GWEI token (Jan. 21) and grew circulating market cap to about $232M by Apr. 21, rolled out Open Gas rebates that returned WETH to users, and added Multi-Relay Support to ease validator adoption. Open Gas made 6,358 users eligible for 2.4778 ETH across five protocols and is expanding to BNB Chain. The most significant market development was a $3 billion commercial agreement with ether.fi—ether.fi will allocate roughly 40% of its ETH to ETHGas’s high-performance staking service for three years and use its preconfirmation platform exclusively—signaling substantial institutional staking flows and accelerated validator participation. Overall, these moves increase on‑chain usability, institutional staking demand, and the market profile of ETHGas and related Ethereum infrastructure.
