The Post-Merge Landscape

For 2022-3 in general, we think recession risks pose a risk to ETH and so now might not be the time to make large speculative bets. Having said that, Ethereum remains the pre-eminent smart contract platform and with the transition to Proof of Stake, its tokenomics have improved significantly with net negative issuance in periods of high activity.

With staking yields hovering between 4% and 7% APR, Ethereum has cemented its status as the internet's premier native yield-generating asset. Furthermore, Layer-2 rollups like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base are drastically reducing transaction fees while anchoring their security directly to Ethereum L1.

Combining Ethereum staking strategies with hard assets such as prime real estate provides the optimal balance between high-upside digital yield and rock-solid capital preservation. Apex Investment clients benefit from automated yield compounding alongside regular dividends.
