ETH staking just hit a new peak. Nearly 30% of Ethereum's total supply is now locked up in staking contracts—that's a massive jump in network participation. What does this mean? More validators securing the chain, stronger network stability, and honestly, less ETH floating around for trading. This shift reflects growing confidence in proof-of-stake mechanics and long-term holding sentiment in the community.

30% is locked... Now the trading volume is going to shrink. The big players really believe in PoS.

Are 30% all staked? It depends on whether the mechanism design is truly incentive-compatible. Don't just look at the impressive numbers—there are too many lessons from history.

30% lock-up really surprised me; it feels a bit too much and might not be very healthy.

30% locked up, that's just ridiculous... It's really all big players hoarding.

30% locked... Now the real show begins, retail investors' chips are getting fewer and fewer.
