Maple Finance and EtherFi Launch Institutional Loans Backed by weETH - Unchained
Decentralized finance platform Maple Finance has integrated EtherFi’s weETH as collateral for its on-chain institutional lending platform
The integration enables qualified borrowers to access USDC loans backed by weETH, EtherFi’s restaked Ethereum token, while continuing to earn ETHFI incentives.
The integration comes with a 2% APY rebate in ETHFI on the first $50 million in loans.

weETH is one of the most widely used restaked assets in DeFi, with over $5.3 billion in circulation and about 75% already used as collateral in major protocols like Aave.
“As staking continues to mature, we’re seeing restaked assets like weETH take on a more central role in how institutional capital allocates onchain,” said Maple cofounder and CEO Sid Powell in a statement
“This integration reflects our long-term view that staking is not just a yield source, but a foundation for the next generation of collateral and credit markets.”
