Ethereum staking surges in a historic move: 30% of total supply is now staked

CoinWorld reports: Ethereum staking volume has reached a historic high, with more than 36.6 million ETH staked, accounting for 30.13% of the total supply. This milestone coincides with Lido Finance launching its V3 upgrade on the mainnet, introducing stVaults for customizable validator configurations. Contributions from institutional investors, including Bitmine's recent $745 million staking, have significantly driven the growth in staking volume. Meanwhile, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin outlined the Ethereum Foundation's dual objectives: actively advancing the development roadmap on one hand, and entering a relatively relaxed period on the other to ensure long-term sustainability.
