Ethereum Staking Demand Strengthens: Over 36 Million ETH Locked on Beacon Chain, Exit Pressure Remains Low

Odaily According to data, over 36 million ETH is currently staked on the Ethereum Beacon Chain, accounting for nearly 30% of the network's circulating supply. The staked value exceeds $118 billion, setting a new all-time high. The previous record high for the network's circulating supply ratio was 29.54%, recorded in July 2025. Furthermore, Ethereum's validator set currently includes approximately 900,000 active validators, with an additional 2.3 million ETH waiting to join the validator queue. Meanwhile, the number of validators in the exit queue has remained near historical lows, indicating limited selling pressure from existing stakers. Market data shows that Ethereum's price has risen 11% year-to-date, benefiting from the overall market uptrend, which has also fueled staking activity. (The Block)
