As $ETH climbs higher in price hopefully achieving a new all-time-high soon, I'm digging into where else can I safely earn with ETH to maximize my yield without taking outsized risk.
Here's what I found...
1/ 4.87% lending ETH on @aave on Ethereum Mainnet, the largest pool of ETH is parked on Aave for a reason.
ETH borrowing rates recently spike with the price run-up in ETH, plus some issues related to the stETH peg.
Why not earn an easy 2-3% in ETH?
👉
2/ When ETH rates don't spike like today, the ETH supply rate tends to be nearly the same on Fluid (2.2%).
But @0xfluid offers the highest LTV, lowest gas fees, and lowest liq fees for borrowing ETH on L1 and so this is a place I park more of my ETH.
👉
4/ While all the yields above were denominated in ETH, one other major lending platform for ETH is @eulerfinance V2.
We can lend ETH for 2.28% real yield + 1.2% rEUL, where rEUL is 20% liquid and 80% vests linearly over 6 months.
👉
5/ I could quote you ETH looping opportunities on @GearboxProtocol but I'm sticking to this theme of easier ETH yields that pay us as lenders.
As a pioneering DeFi liquidity hub for leverage, Gearbox is where you can earn 4.5% real yield lending ETH.
👉
7/ Lastly, here's a collection of competitive fixed APYs to be earned with different ETH derivatives on @pendle_fi.
Longest ETH yields to lock in🏆
@puffer_finance PT-pufETH June 2026, 4.15% APY
@LidoFinance PT-wstETH Dec 2027, 3.5% APY
Outstanding ETH yields ~4% and above🥈
@TreehouseFi PT-tETH Jan 2026, 4.6% APY
@Mantle_Official PT-cmETH Sept 2025, 4.24% APY
@superformxyz PT-SuperETH Oct 2025, 6% APY
@OriginProtocol PT-wOETH Dec 2025, 3.65% APY
I personally love the ability to lock in PT-pufETH for 338 days at 4.15% APY or PT-wstETH for 891 days at 3.5% APY but there's clearly lots of options available on Pendle.
