SEC has been targeting staking services provided by centralized exchange, and another US exchange, Kraken, has shut down its staking service earlier this year.According to Dune dashboard by @hildobby, Coinbase now accounts for 10.35% of $ETH staking market share.<figure class="image"><img src="https://s2.tokeninsight.com/static/news/content/img/Screenshot_2023-06-08_at_09.45.18.png"></figure>&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://tokeninsight.com/en/cryptocurrencies">TokenInsight</a> is dedicated to covering the most important and cutting-edge trends in the world of crypto.
