Ethereum staking exit queue hits two weeks, longest of 2026
- —ETH staking exit queue reaches two weeks, the longest in 2026
- —Entry queue previously hit 25 days with about 1.5 million ETH awaiting activation
- —ETH waiting to enter staking has dropped over 25% since early September
- —The protocol's churn limit caps how many validators can join or leave per epoch
Why it matters: A growing exit queue signals shifting staker sentiment; heavy withdrawals can temporarily lift yields for validators that stay active.
