Ethereum's staking ecosystem just hit a major milestone—36 million ETH is now locked in staking, which accounts for nearly 30% of all ETH in existence. On top of that, the validator entry queue has accumulated 2.4 million ETH waiting to activate. This surge reflects growing validator participation and increased confidence in Ethereum's proof-of-stake network. The rising staking ratio also highlights how more participants are choosing to secure the network while earning rewards, signaling a maturing ecosystem.
