ETH staking boom kicks off: On-chain data signals strong momentum, surpassing BTC by 2026?
【Crypto World】Recently, an interesting phenomenon has emerged in the market. Investors’ funds are flowing into belief-driven assets, with ETH being one of them.
On-chain data speaks: 1.32 million ETH are currently queued to be staked, while only 3,000 have chosen to exit. This comparison is not trivial — it marks the first net inflow in the past six months. It seems the market’s commitment to Ethereum is genuine.
As supply tightens, the fundamentals are also gaining strength. This year, Ethereum’s price increase has been twice that of Bitcoin, with developer activity continuously rising. The tokenization of RWA and institutional adoption of DeFi are also on the rise. Last week alone, the weekly increase reached 9.3%. The ETH/BTC exchange rate has also jumped, rising nearly 4%.
What does this combination of signals imply? Some analysts believe that with tightening supply and strong fundamentals, Ethereum could deliver a performance surpassing Bitcoin by Q1 2026. This is relatively rare in history. Of course, the market itself is full of uncertainties, but this line of thinking is worth paying attention to.
