Ethereum's EIP-8061 would speed exits but leave new validators waiting to earn
- —EIP-8061 keeps the 256 ETH per-epoch activation cap, or up to 57,600 ETH daily
- —Entry queue held 1,282,776 ETH with a 22-day, 6-hour wait as of Oct. 15
- —Exit capacity would scale with active stake but remain rate-limited
- —Last Call deadline is Nov. 1; no confirmed mainnet activation date
Why it matters: Faster exits would ease liquidity risk for stakers, but the long entry queue keeps diluting yields for new deposits.
