🌳 Update on Treehouse
$cmETH Vault
@mETHProtocol has announced the wind-down of cmETH.
What this means for Treehouse users:
• Existing positions in the vault remain unaffected
• Users may choose to unstake any time
• Reward claims remain available via mETH until Nov 7
As part of our effort to strengthen long-term protocol alignment, we are winding down cmETH, our liquid restaking token.
All other mETH Protocol products will operate as usual.
→ Rationale
Since launch, cmETH quickly grew into one of the most widely integrated LRTs, reaching $620M in TVL at its peak.
However, following careful evaluation of current sector developments, winding down cmETH is the most prudent path forward as we refocus resources where we can deliver more durable value to users.
→ Key Dates
May 7, 2026: cmETH minting disabled. Existing positions are unaffected, with unstaking and bridging remaining operational.
Mid-June, 2026: Final EigenLayer reward distribution. Any undistributed rewards earned through Oct. 20, 2025 will be made available to claim.
Nov. 7, 2026: Reward claim window closes for previous cmETH campaigns. If future TGEs occur from related AVSs or restaking partners that include retroactive rewards, they will still be distributed to eligible users.
*cmETH unstaking and bridging are expected to remain available after this date, subject to ongoing review of remaining supply and user activity.
→ Next Steps
• cmETH holders: You can continue to unstake or bridge.
• Partner protocol users: Please review your positions and check each platform’s continued support for cmETH.
• Unclaimed rewards: Please claim them before Nov. 7, 2026.
• mETH stakers: No action is required.
Thank you for being part of our journey. mETH Protocol continues to build.
