Ethereum hits a new milestone

For the first time in history, over 50 of all ETH supply is now locked in Proof-of-Stake staking contracts, according to data from Santiment.
This signals a growing shift from speculation to yield and long-term conviction. During market slowdowns, trading activity typically drops and staking becomes the preferred strategy for many holders.
If the market remains weak or sideways, the share of staked ETH is likely to keep increasing, further reducing liquid supply and strengthening Ethereum s long-term fundamentals.
