📊 ETH withdrawal statistics update: validators need to wait 17 days

An interesting picture emerged. The queue to exit Ethereum staking has become so long that validators have to wait 17 days to get their ETH back. There are currently 28,000 validators in the queue, or about 5% of the total. This is if you output the entire broadcast. And if you withdraw only the reward for staking, then the waiting period is only 4 days.

⚠️ It may seem that validators are fleeing Ethereum staking, but they are not. On the contrary, the dynamics of outflow changed to inflow. In total, 1.08 million ETH was withdrawn from staking, but at the same time, 585,710 ETH were added to staking over the same period. That is, the net outflow since the Shapella update is 494,540 ETH, which is less than two days ago.
