Original Title: Neobanks will fuel Ethereum’s 2026 growth, says ether.fi CEO
Original Link: https://cryptonews.net/news/ethereum/32224309/
As Ethereum closes out a pivotal institutional year, ether.fi CEO and co-founder Mike Silagadze is already looking ahead to 2026, and he believes the network’s next phase will be defined less by speculation and more by financial products that feel familiar to everyday users.
Ether.fi is best known for its restaking platform on Ethereum, but has since expanded its focus toward building crypto-native neobanking products that combine yield, self-custody and onchain financial services.
Silagadze described 2025 as a turning point for Ethereum, marked by a wave of institutional onboarding. While staking remains limited within ETFs, Silagadze said other institutional vehicles, like digital asset treasuries (DATs) have moved faster.

I think this neobank thing is a bit questionable... Can it really drive up ETH?

I'm tired of the same old lines about neobanks; someone always hyping them up every year. What will it be like in the end?

The concept of neobank still sounds a bit mysterious. To truly popularize it, it depends on how the ecosystem is built...

Honestly, can that neobank approach really save ETH? It still seems to depend on whether the chain itself can handle the TPS pressure.

neobank+ETH? Sounds great, but can this term really go viral...
