The number of ETH queued to join the Ethereum Proof of Stake (PoS) network has reached a new high, according to validatorqueue data. Since December 26, 2025, the amount has grown to 3,330,385 ETH, reflecting strong staking demand. According to BlockBeats, this surge is primarily driven by Ethereum treasury companies and institutions like BitMine staking large amounts of ETH. The activation delay is estimated to be around 57 days and 20 hours. In contrast, the amount of ETH in the exit queue is significantly lower, with only 832 ETH waiting to leave the network. The exit wait time is approximately 21 minutes.
