Ethereum validator queue has been growing steadily since late May, I analyzed all the old ETH1 and new EIP-6110 execution deposits from slot 11649077 -> 11931977

Highlevel numbers:
- There are total 82,529 new EL deposits vs. 541 old eth1 data deposits as expected eth1 deposit was deprecated
- Total 2.3M ETH deposited via EL deposit
- 375 EL deposits greater than 32 ETH amount

now we share some charts:

https://launchpad.ethereum.org/en/validator-actions is criminally underrated. The UX for partial deposit, withdrawal, and compound is super smooth. Huge kudos to the team behind it, but as always, DYOR

Been digging into blocks over the past month and found something interesting:
172 blocks had no txs, 85 had no fee recipients.
That’s ~5–6 per day, about the same rate as reorgs.

Could last-minute reorgs be catching builders off guard? Anyone know more? cc @Data_Always

One month since the Pectra update. Wrote a quick script to download all the blocks since & study execution request usage. What I found across 236k slots:

- Out of 236k slots, only 30,587 blocks had any execution requests
- In those blocks, there were 69,041 deposit requests, 312 withdrawal requests (why so little!), and 17,570 consolidation requests
- For deposits, we saw 57,293 unique pubkeys and 2,102 unique withdrawal credentials
- For withdrawals, 262 unique validator pubkeys and 100 unique source addresses
- For consolidation, 3,422 unique target addresses and 3,544 self-consolidations, which looks like ~1.3% of validators consolidated

anything stood out to you here?

One week after Pectra: reorgs per day have dropped back to pre-petra levels, looking good so far

Pectra saved eth price, who knew all it took was moving committee index out of attestation

I won’t be tweeting finalization—just hoping everything goes smoothly 🫶
