According to PANews, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has addressed discussions surrounding the waiting time for unstaking. Buterin emphasized that staking involves a solemn responsibility to uphold the blockchain's integrity. He noted that the resistance encountered during the exit process is an integral part of the protocol. While he acknowledged that the current design of the staking queue may not be optimal, he cautioned against naively reducing related parameters, as this could undermine the chain's credibility from the perspective of nodes that are not frequently online.
Data from the validatorqueue website indicates that the Ethereum Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network currently has an exit queue of 2,496,141 ETH, with an estimated waiting time of approximately 43 days and 8 hours. Meanwhile, there are 464,626 ETH waiting to enter the network, with an expected activation delay of around 8 days and 2 hours.
