- The Ethereum staking exit queue has fallen to zero while the entry queue has surged to 2.6 million ETH.
- Exit processing now takes minutes; entry wait times have stretched to about 45 days.
- Large institutional staking inflows, including over 1.25 million ETH from BitMine Immersion Technologies, are driving demand.
- More than 46.5% of ETH supply sits in the proof-of-stake deposit contract, about 77.85 million ETH worth $256 billion.
- Total actively staked ETH is roughly 36.1 million (about 29% of supply); ETH trades near $3,300, below its $4,946 high.
The Ethereum staking validator exit queue has dropped to zero while the entry queue has risen to about 2.6 million ETH, according to data from Ethereum Validator Queue. The exit queue fell from a September 2025 peak of 2.67 million ETH, and entry waits have lengthened to roughly 45 days as exits are processed in minutes.
Analysts say the large inflows into staking are tightening ETH’s supply-demand balance and could support price momentum. Onchain Foundation head of research Leon Waidmann wrote that this setup is a “Bullish set-up for the coming months,” as shown in his post on X.
Institutional demand has contributed to the flows, and staking yields are about 2.8% APR. BitMine Immersion Technologies, led by chairman Tom Lee, has staked over 1.25 million ETH, which the company reports is more than one-third of its ETH holdings.
Crypto analytics provider Santiment noted that roughly 46.5% of the total ETH supply is now in the proof-of-stake deposit contract—about 77.85 million ETH valued at $256 billion—according to their post on X. Beacon chain data from Beaconcha.in shows about 36.1 million ETH is actively staked, roughly 29% of the supply.
Despite these staking trends, ETH’s market price remains below its record high. CoinGecko data lists ETH near $3,300, down from the $4,946 all-time high set on Aug. 4, 2025.
