Lido stETH 7-day average APR rises to 4.2% after Binance hack, SlowMist says

The move matters because it shows a security incident at a major exchange can transmit through validator economics rather than price alone: heightened on-chain competition lifted execution-layer rewards, and stETH holders captured that pass-through via the seven-day average. It is a reminder that staking yields are partly a function of adversarial or distressed on-chain activity, not just protocol design. The open question is whether the APR elevation persists once competition normalizes, or proves a transient spike tied to post-hack conditions.
