The amount of ETH staked in the Ethereum PoS network's validator queue continues to grow, reaching a new high since July 2023.

BlockBeats News, January 23, according to the Validator Queue tracking website validatorqueue data, the number of ETH queued to join the Ethereum PoS network has been continuously increasing since December 26, 2025, reaching 3,068,886 ETH, hitting a new high since July 2023, with a value of approximately $8.98 billion, and an estimated activation delay of about 53 days and 7 hours. This reflects sustained strong staking demand, primarily driven by Ethereum treasury companies and institutions such as BitMine recently staking a large amount of ETH they hold. On-chain data shows that BitMine has currently staked a total of 1,943,200 ETH, valued at approximately $5.69 billion.

Meanwhile, the Ethereum PoS network staking exit queue has been cleared, and there are currently no large numbers of users opting to withdraw ETH from staking, meaning stakers can now almost immediately withdraw their ETH.
