The staked market value exceeds $118 billion, setting a new all-time high. The previous record for the highest percentage of circulating supply was 29.54%, reached in July 2025. Additionally, the Ethereum validator set currently includes approximately 900,000 active validators, with another 2.3 million ETH waiting to join the validation queue. Meanwhile, the number of validators exiting the queue has remained near historic lows, indicating limited selling pressure from existing stakers.
