ETH Staking Supply Continues to Lock Up

The current situation is quite interesting:

• 35.9 million ETH staked
• Accounting for 29.6% of total ETH supply
• 976,146 active validator nodes online
• Queue waiting: 2.34 million ETH
• Average waiting period: 41 days
• Exit queue: zero

What does this indicate? It’s simple—nobody wants to run away, everyone wants in.

The real picture is ETH being continuously locked in staking. On one side, massive funds are queuing to stake, and on the other side, there is zero exit demand. This supply-demand imbalance is changing the overall liquidity landscape of ETH. From a trading market perspective, the amount of liquid ETH is constantly decreasing, and what impact might this have on the market’s long-term trend? It’s worth pondering.

Zero withdrawals, that's incredible. No one wants to run. --- 234 million waiting in line to enter. How long will this take... --- Liquidity is getting tighter and tighter. How will the market react? --- 29.6% is locked up. How do you trade in such a market? --- No one wanting to run is the strongest signal, right? --- Wait, is this data the latest? Feels like it has changed again. --- Is staking yield really that attractive? So many people lining up. --- The detail that the withdrawal queue is zero is quite interesting. --- Does reduced liquidity benefit or harm the price? What's the impact? --- ETH is becoming increasingly scarce, indeed. --- People waiting in line for 41 days to enter. You must have a strong mindset. --- Staking yield > bottom-fishing opportunity? Seems like that's the logic.

Zero exit demand is a brilliant detail. From the supply and demand curve, this is a perfect narrative of liquidity scarcity. Long-term optimism. No one wants to leave; everyone wants to enter. How strong must the consensus be? It can explain the situation better than any positive news. 3.24 million tokens are queued up, and it takes 41 days to enter the market. Just imagine how deep this FOMO is. Liquidity lock-in = scarcity premium. Simple economics can explain why this trend is worth pondering. The zero exit data is a bit outrageous. Are you really not afraid that the sentiment could change at any time?

Zero exit, this number is amazing, indicating that everyone is betting on the subsequent upward trend.

No one wants to run, this is the real bullish signal. Liquidity is completely drained, how can the bears dump the market? This setup is locked tight, it's brilliant. The 41-day queue is still lining up... the level of eagerness is off the charts. Zero withdrawals are the highlight; no one is fleeing, that's true confidence.
