BTCS BTCS Inc

BTCS Inc. (Nasdaq: BTCS) (“BTCS” or the “Company”), a leader in blockchain infrastructure and technology, proudly announces the launch of its new Staker Protection Plan (“SPP”), an innovative initiative designed to enhance financial stability and operational security for Ethereum blockchain validators.

Introducing the Staker Protection Plan by BTCS

The SPP represents a transformative approach to supporting Ethereum validators with a comprehensive, four-pronged structure that includes:

1. Revenue Shield: A strategic mechanism designed to increase and protect validator revenues through predictable payments. Validators gain stable income from pre-sold block space and up to 90% of execution layer reward profits, potentially increasing earnings by up to 4%.
2. Compliance Framework: Built-in adherence to regulatory standards such as OFAC compliance ensures a secure, legally compliant environment, enhancing validators' risk mitigation.
3. Integrated Full Block Pre-confirmations: BTCS plans to offer pre-confirmations to provide users and dApps with early assurance that their transactions are likely to be included in upcoming blocks. By leveraging advanced MEV infrastructure, BTCS’s system will signal probable transaction outcomes before final block confirmations, reducing wait times and the need for frequent re-submissions during periods of high congestion. This service aims to enhance the efficiency of order flow management for both dApps and searchers, promoting smoother transaction experiences and optimizing block space use.
4. Advanced Order Flow Integration: Facilitates direct monetization of block space by enabling access for dApps and wallets, promoting greater revenue potential and network decentralization.

Charles Allen, CEO of BTCS, commented: “The Staker Protection Plan launch underscores our commitment to empowering blockchain validators with innovative solutions. This initiative also sets the stage for revenue growth and improved margins, aligning with our strategic vision of sustainable and scalable success.”
