According to ChainCatcher, data from Staking Rewards shows that Ethereum’s staking ratio has reached a new all-time high, with approximately 41.89 million ETH currently staked, accounting for 34.7% of Ethereum’s total supply. This corresponds to a staked market value of about $78.56 billion, with a current staking yield of approximately 2.6%, a recent decline of 0.49%. The network has around 789,000 active validators. The staking ratio continues to rise, with a recent increase of about 0.77%, while the network’s inflation rate has dropped to approximately 0.86%. An increasing amount of ETH is being locked into the PoS consensus mechanism, simultaneously reducing circulating supply. ETH staking rewards primarily come from consensus layer issuance, priority fees, and MEV; however, as staking volume grows, the yield per validator is being diluted.
