Ethereum Staking Hits Record High After Pectra Upgrade
Ethereum staking has surged to 29.39% of total supply, nearing an all-time high, as the Pectra upgrade drives efficiency gains. The March hard fork allowed validators to consolidate stakes, raising the per-validator cap from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH—reducing costs and boosting participation.
After dipping to 27.2% in March, staking rates have rebounded sharply, surpassing November 2024’s peak. With ETH staking ETFs on the horizon, institutional inflows could push staking even higher, though concerns over centralization persist.
