Hashvalue Unveils ETH Staking Migration Compensation Plan Ahead of Ethereum Merge

In August 2022, with the Ethereum network’s long-awaited Merge upgrade nearing final execution, Hashvalue officially announced its ETH staking migration compensation initiative. The program is designed to ensure a smooth transition for all ETH-based cloud mining users as Ethereum shifts from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus.

The Ethereum Merge, set to deactivate PoW mining and activate full validator-based staking, represents one of the most significant network changes in blockchain history. In response, Hashvalue will retire legacy ETH mining contracts and introduce a migration plan that preserves user rewards while aligning platform operations with Ethereum’s new infrastructure model.

According to Hashvalue’s announcement, all active ETH mining users will be eligible to opt into the staking compensation program starting August 12. The program offers automatic conversion of remaining contract value into ETH 2.0 staking credits, as well as a one-time migration bonus based on historic mining performance and staking participation duration.

The staking credits will be allocated to Hashvalue’s new ETH validator pool cluster, consisting of fully operational institutional-grade nodes. Participants will receive daily staking yield distributions through a smart contract-based dashboard, with real-time visibility into APR fluctuations, network uptime, and node health status.

To ensure network neutrality and decentralization, validator nodes have been geographically distributed across North America, Europe, and APAC regions. All validator operations follow slashing-protection protocols, audited security layers, and non-custodial stake delegation rights.

Hashvalue’s staking migration dashboard allows users to monitor their migrated assets, claim migration incentives, or rebalance between ETH and stable asset staking pools based on risk tolerance.

For ETH miners not interested in transitioning to staking, the platform offers flexible exit options, including lump-sum payout of unused hashrate credits or conversion into BTC cloud mining shares at discounted rates.

The compensation plan also includes a staking education module featuring tutorials, upgrade timelines, and validator risk disclosures to guide users through the staking lifecycle and reward structures post-Merge.

Engineering teams confirmed that the migration process includes no interruption to account access, and that rewards already earned through PoW contracts remain unaffected. The transition will be completed in sync with Ethereum’s final merge block, projected for mid-September.

Hashvalue executives emphasized that the initiative is not just a technical patch, but part of the firm’s long-term digital infrastructure strategy. “Ethereum’s Merge marks a structural evolution—and our platform is committed to ensuring our users participate not only seamlessly, but with added value.”

The plan’s rollout follows weeks of backend adjustments, slashing compliance preparation, and real-time testnet simulations to guarantee validator readiness.

Industry analysts have applauded the move, citing it as a benchmark for proactive platform behavior during protocol-wide transitions. Several pointed out that staking integration combined with user-centric migration incentives could serve as a blueprint for cross-chain validator programs.

Looking forward, Hashvalue confirmed it is building additional validator pools for other PoS blockchains and plans to integrate cross-chain staking portfolios into its ecosystem by Q4 2022.
