Ethereum’s Validator Exit Queue Is Nearly Empty—and That Matters

[etfs]

The validator exit queue on Ethereum has fallen back toward zero for the first time since July, signaling a major shift in staking dynamics. According to Beaconcha.in data, only 32 ETH is currently queued for exit, with a wait time of roughly one minute—down nearly 100% from its peak of 2.67 million ETH in mid-September.

Analysts say this suggests selling pressure is drying up, as fewer validators are looking to unstake their Ether. Unstaking is often associated with plans to sell or rebalance portfolios, while a near-empty exit queue implies stronger conviction to keep ETH locked and earning yield.
