So, the Ethereum exit queue has basically vanished, and institutional bigwigs are staking like there’s no tomorrow. BitMine’s thrown 2.1B ETH into the ring, while the entry queue’s got 1.3M tokens waiting in line. 🤑🚪
The exit queue? Oh, it’s practically a ghost town-just 32 ETH with a one-minute wait. That’s a 99.9% nosedive from the 2.67 million ETH back in mid-September. Talk about a dramatic exit. 👻⏳
According to Tevis on X (yeah, the cool kids’ platform), ETH exchange reserves are hitting decade-lows. Selling pressure? Drier than a British summer. BitMine and ETFs are staking like their lives depend on it, and the validator entry queue is popping off. 📉💎
Rostyk, the CTO of Asymetrix, chimed in on X with a hot take: “The validator exit queue is literally empty. Nobody’s selling their staked ETH, and the analysts? Crickets.” 🦗🤐
ETH staking exit queue is basically empty
No one wants to sell their staked ETH

Institutional Giants: Staking Like It’s Going Out of Style
The entry queue? It’s having a moment-1.3 million ETH in early January, the highest since mid-November. Big players are leading the charge, because who doesn’t love a good staking party? 🎉💼
BitMine started staking ETH in December 2025 (yes, future stuff). They snagged 82,560 ETH on January 3, worth about $260M. Now they’re sitting pretty with 659,219 ETH, valued at a cool $2.1B. Baller move. 💰🤓
Oh, and they’ve got over 4.1 million ETH now-that’s 3.4% of the total supply. At current prices, we’re talking $13B. Casual. 🤑📈
Tevis from AlphaLedger dropped some wisdom on X: “Selling pressure’s drying up, and the validator entry queue’s outpacing exits. Supply shock squeeze incoming?” Plot twist: ETFs are staking too. 🌪️📊
Exchange reserves at 10-year lows. Selling pressure drying up, and now we’re seeing validator entry queue far outpace exit queues (driven by BitMine and ETFs staking their ETH for yield)
Supply shock induced squeeze incoming?

Empty Exit Queues: What’s the Tea? ☕
Exit queues are like Ethereum’s bouncers-they keep things stable during peak withdrawal times. But now that the queue’s empty, it’s like the club’s VIP section just opened up. No more waiting, no more selling pressure. 🎟️🚪
Market observers are calling it a “de-pressurisation of selling.” Fancy words for “nobody’s panicking.” Meanwhile, the entry queue’s booming, thanks to staking demand and ETFs jumping on the bandwagon. 🚀📈
Grayscale’s Ethereum Staking ETF is giving shareholders staking rewards. Peter Mintzberg, their CEO, called it a “landmark move.” Because who doesn’t love free money? 🤑🎁
Tom Lee from Fundstrat Global Advisors is bullish on Ethereum for 2026. Institutional adoption, tokenisation, and digital authentication? Sounds like a recipe for success. Or a crypto fever dream. 🌈📈
BitMine’s asking shareholders to approve more authorised shares. Why? To make acquisitions and keep that ETH per share climbing. Supply shock? Price squeeze? Bring it on. 💪💸
