Ethereum Staking Surpasses 80M ETH, Crossing 50% Supply

The post Ethereum Staking Surpasses 80M ETH, Crossing 50% Supply appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Ethereum’s Beacon Deposit Contract has reached 80.97 million ETH, now holding over 50% of the total supply for the first time in its 11-year history. This growth from 77.85 million a month ago reflects continued deposits following the 2022 Merge, where users lock ETH to secure the network and earn rewards. Long-term holders show commitment with steady inflows, while analysts note that rising staking reduces liquid supply, signaling tighter liquidity ahead for trading.
