Ethereum's New Joining Validators Need to Wait 36 Days, Waiting Time for Exiting Staking Is Zero

According to Vercel's Ethereum staking withdrawal queue data, there are currently 65,297 applications for joining as new Ethereum validators nodes, requiring 870 hours of waiting time, while the queue for exiting staking nodes does not require waiting, and the waiting time for staking withdrawal is zero.

The current Ethereum staking rate is about 15%, which is still much lower than other Layer 1 blockchains, such as Avalanche 59%, Solana 22%, and Tron 42%. The number of new Ethereum nodes applying to join staking continues to be higher than the number of nodes exiting, and the staking rate is expected to increase further.
