Auto-Compounding Comes to uniETH Restaking Rewards: What It Means for Your ETH Yield

Auto-Compounding Comes to uniETH Restaking Rewards: What It Means for Your ETH Yield

TL;DR: If you're holding uniETH, you automatically earn more. Weekly restaking rewards are now converted into ETH and reflected in the token's value. No action needed. No points to track. Just more ETH, every week.

A Simpler Way to Earn More from Your uniETH

If you’re holding uniETH, Bedrock’s liquid restaking token for Ethereum, there’s good news: auto-compounding is now live.

Starting May 16, 2025, all uniETH holders will begin receiving enhanced restaking rewards automatically, without needing to claim, stake, or track anything manually.

Here’s what’s changing, how it works, and what it means for your yield.

What is Auto-Compounding for uniETH?

Auto-compounding means your staking rewards are reinvested back into the system, growing your position over time without any manual steps.

With this upgrade, all rewards from EigenLayer’s Programmatic Incentives are now swapped to ETH and routed back into the uniETH protocol. The result: every uniETH token gradually becomes worth more ETH.

You won’t see a higher token balance. Instead, you’ll see the uniETH:ETH exchange rate rise faster, reflecting your accumulating rewards.

With This Change, Yield Is Built Into the Token

With this change, value accrual no longer relies on manual claims or point-based tracking. Instead, it’s now reflected directly in the token’s exchange rate — programatically updated on-chain each week and equally applied to all holders.

It’s a structural shift that brings rewards closer to the core asset and eliminates the need for complex backend calculations.

Weekly Rewards. No Claiming. No Guesswork.

The first distribution under this new system took place on May 16, 2025. From now on, rewards are distributed weekly, providing a steady rhythm that benefits holders in two key ways:

  • It reduces volatility in the exchange rate by smoothing out large reward injections.

  • It provides transparency and predictability — holders know exactly when and how their rewards are reflected.

This cadence also aligns better with the protocol’s internal accounting and keeps the system fair for everyone, regardless of when they entered.

No More EigenLayer Points. No Manual Tracking.

Before this upgrade, Bedrock relied on EigenLayer’s points system to track and distribute rewards. This system was difficult to follow, and reward calculation required off-chain logic and manual oversight.

That’s now gone.

With auto-compounding, rewards are distributed purely at the smart contract level, directly and proportionally based on the amount of uniETH you hold. There are no points to game or manage — just a token that grows in value over time.

Real Numbers: The First Distribution

On May 16, the protocol executed the first auto-compound rewards distribution:

  • Exchange ratio (uniETH:ETH): increased from 1.09656 to 1.09675

  • Estimated APY: ranged from 3.37% to 3.58%

This means that for every 1 uniETH you held before  the distribution , it’s now worth slightly more ETH, with no action needed on your part.

These rates will naturally vary over time depending on market dynamics, validator performance, and Eigen incentives. Bedrock continuously monitors the EIGEN:ETH swap ratio to optimize returns for the protocol.

Why It Matters for Holders

For passive holders, this update offers three major benefits:

  • No maintenance: You don’t have to claim or reinvest rewards manually.

  • No complexity: You no longer need to track EigenLayer points or estimate off-chain yields.

  • Fair and transparent: All yield is embedded into the token’s value and updated weekly on-chain.

It also strengthens uniETH’s position as a capital-efficient, yield-bearing token in the broader Ethereum restaking ecosystem.
