According to Lookonchain, an Ethereum ICO wallet identified as 0x2dCA holding 40,000 ETH (about $120M) reactivated after more than a decade and staked the holdings rather than selling, with transactions referenced to Etherscan address 0x26021abdd34df672fed798cf5a2e98190d22aaa8 (source: Lookonchain on X; source: Etherscan). This activity indicates no immediate exchange-bound outflows from this wallet during the reactivation window, as funds were committed to staking instead of transfers to trading venues (source: Lookonchain on X; source: Etherscan). At 32 ETH required per validator, 40,000 ETH corresponds to roughly 1,250 validator deposits (source: Ethereum.org staking documentation).

According to @OnchainLens, an early Ethereum ICO wallet moved 40,000 ETH (about USD 120 million) after 10 years of inactivity, source: @OnchainLens. The same wallet has begun staking its ETH to the ETH2.0 deposit contract, with the address identified as 0x26021abdd34df672fed798cf5a2e98190d22aaa8, source: @OnchainLens.

According to the source, Bhutan has reportedly staked 320 ETH through staking provider Figment and holds roughly $568 million in Bitcoin; traders should seek direct confirmation via Figment’s official validator dashboard and on-chain data, as well as disclosures from Druk Holding & Investments (DHI), before adjusting positions. If validated by Figment and DHI, sovereign ETH staking would be supportive for ETH staking participation and validator revenues tracked by provider dashboards, while verified sovereign BTC holdings would reinforce the institutional adoption narrative monitored by on-chain analytics firms (e.g., Glassnode) and daily spot BTC ETF flow reports from issuers such as BlackRock and Fidelity.

According to @lookonchain, the VanEck Ethereum ETN staked 12,600 ETH valued at approximately $37.9 million again today, indicating continued institutional staking activity; source: Lookonchain post on X dated Nov 27, 2025. The attribution of this staking to VanEck is based on Arkham Intelligence’s entity classification and transaction traces for the VanEck wallet cluster, which list the related movements; source: Arkham Intelligence entity page for VanEck at intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/vaneck. Staked ETH participates in Ethereum consensus and can be withdrawn only after passing the validator exit process, which temporarily reduces immediate tradability until withdrawal completes; source: Ethereum.org Staking documentation.

According to @lookonchain, the Royal Government of Bhutan staked 320 ETH worth about $971,000 roughly 2 hours ago, with the transaction attributed to the Arkham Intelligence–labeled entity Druk Holding Investments (sources: Lookonchain post dated Nov 27, 2025; Arkham Intelligence entity page for Druk Holding Investments). Traders can monitor this labeled wallet on Arkham Intelligence for any subsequent ETH staking or transfers to inform on-chain flow tracking (source: Arkham Intelligence entity page for Druk Holding Investments).

According to @OnchainLens, the Royal Government of Bhutan transferred 320 ETH, approximately USD 920,800, to stake on Ethereum using Figment infrastructure; source: Onchain Lens. Arkham Intelligence’s entity page for Druk Holding and Investments shows addresses linked to the Bhutan government and corroborates the 320 ETH staking-related transfer; source: Arkham Intelligence. The 320 ETH equates to 10 validators because Ethereum requires 32 ETH per validator for activation; source: Ethereum.org Staking. Traders can track validator count and staking inflows to assess ETH supply dynamics using on-chain dashboards such as Beaconcha.in; source: Beaconcha.in.

According to @lookonchain, address 0xe9405Bd9845A488e4C5e5E6d972FeA932E2E4A3c, labeled by Arkham Intelligence as linked to Ethereum co-founder Taylor Gerring, staked 7,455 ETH valued at USD 25.35M on Nov 12, 2025, based on on-chain data and the Lookonchain X post; source: Lookonchain on X, Arkham Intelligence explorer. This amount is roughly equal to 233 validators at 32 ETH each, source: Ethereum.org Proof-of-Stake staking documentation.

According to the source, three market-moving claims need immediate verification for trading decisions: BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) reportedly leads ETF profit charts this week (source: BlackRock iShares IBIT fund page; source: SEC EDGAR). The source also states Coinbase has entered New York’s staking market via regulatory approval (source: New York Department of Financial Services public orders; source: Coinbase Investor Relations press releases). Additionally, S&P Dow Jones Indices allegedly launched a hybrid crypto index combining digital assets with traditional benchmarks (source: S&P Dow Jones Indices newsroom). Traders should confirm IBIT leadership by checking issuer reports and creations/redemptions to gauge BTC demand and potential spot price impact (source: BlackRock iShares daily flow data; source: Nasdaq ETF listings). For Coinbase’s NY staking, validate the approval order and staking terms to assess ETH staking supply and COIN revenue sensitivity (source: NYDFS portal; source: Coinbase Investor Relations). For the S&P hybrid index, verify methodology and constituents to anticipate index-linked flows into BTC/ETH proxies and related equities (source: S&P Dow Jones Indices methodology documents; source: S&P Dow Jones Indices index announcements).

According to @FarsideUK, Farside Investors has updated its Ethereum ETF flow table to indicate whether each product has staking enabled, as announced on X and reflected on the Farside ETH ETF page (source: Farside Investors). The table provides daily inflow and outflow data and now distinguishes staking-enabled versus non-staking products, giving traders a clearer way to track net demand by product type and monitor shifts in investor preference using the same dataset (source: Farside ETH ETF page by Farside Investors). Farside also linked to a Grayscale post on X for issuer-specific context that traders can reference alongside the flow table when comparing product policies with observed flows (source: Grayscale on X; Farside Investors).

According to @rovercrc, 29% of the total ETH supply is now staked, source: @rovercrc on X. Staked ETH is not transferable while staked and requires a validator exit and withdrawal to become liquid, source: Ethereum.org Staking documentation. Liquid staking issues tradable tokens that represent staked ETH, allowing secondary-market liquidity for part of staked exposure, source: Ethereum.org Liquid staking overview. Traders assessing ETH liquidity and effective circulating supply can incorporate both the staked share and the prevalence of LSTs into their on-chain metrics, source: Ethereum.org Liquid staking overview.

According to @camillionaire_m, Ethereum DATs operate like growth companies that compound ETH via staking, restaking, and DeFi to increase ether-generation-per-share, whereas ETH ETFs are passive wrappers designed to track spot or futures price without compounding. Source: @camillionaire_m on X, Sep 26, 2025. @camillionaire_m states that DATs can fully stake their ETH if they choose, while ETFs cannot stake or participate in DeFi at present; even if permitted later, ETFs will remain unable to fully stake due to redemption liquidity requirements. Source: @camillionaire_m on X, Sep 26, 2025. @camillionaire_m adds that DATs can raise and deploy capital more flexibly—issuing equity or convertibles and deploying proceeds onchain—while ETFs only issue units to meet demand and cannot direct strategy due to fund structure and custody constraints. Source: @camillionaire_m on X, Sep 26, 2025. For institutional allocators and traders, @camillionaire_m emphasizes that the choice between DATs and ETFs determines exposure type: compounding ETH yield versus regulated price beta, with materially different performance and risk profiles for ETH strategies.

According to @EmberCN, on Sep 17, 2025 the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ETF address transferred 214,400 ETH to 67 new wallets in equal 3,200 ETH tranches worth about 967 million dollars. Source: https://twitter.com/EmberCN/status/1968141623600222368; https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/grayscale Each 3,200 ETH lot equals 100 Ethereum validators at 32 ETH per validator, a standard Proof of Stake unit size. Source: https://ethereum.org/en/staking The author suggests this pattern looks like preparation for PoS staking and notes that US spot ETH ETFs do not have staking approval. Source: https://twitter.com/EmberCN/status/1968141623600222368 There is no confirmation of staking in the cited on-chain transfers, only distributions across new wallets are visible. Source: https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/grayscale If these wallets later send funds to the Ethereum Beacon chain deposit contract 0x00000000219ab540356cBB839Cbe05303d7705Fa, the 3,200 ETH per wallet would correspond to 100 validators per wallet and up to 6,700 validators in total, contingent on actual deposits. Source: https://ethereum.org/en/staking/deposit-contract; https://ethereum.org/en/staking Trading takeaway: monitor these 67 wallets and the Beacon deposit contract for follow-through deposits to gauge potential staking flows and any related liquidity tightening signal on ETH.

According to @MilkRoadDaily, SharpLink Gaming is reportedly set to move part of its $3.6B treasury onto Ethereum L2 Linea to stake ETH, which the source describes as one of the first instances of a major corporate treasury directly supporting Ethereum scaling, source: @MilkRoadDaily. The source also states that billions of ETH will be staked on Linea, signaling substantial staking activity tied to this move, source: @MilkRoadDaily.

According to @rovercrc, SharpLink Gaming plans to stake part of a USD 3.6 billion Ethereum (ETH) treasury on the Linea network when its mainnet goes live on September 10, as stated in a public X post on Sep 6, 2025 (source: @rovercrc on X, Sep 6, 2025). However, Linea’s mainnet has been live since July 2023 per Consensys’ official Linea documentation, making the September 10 mainnet go-live claim inconsistent (source: Consensys Linea documentation, July 2023). The post does not reference any official SharpLink announcement or SEC filing; traders should await verification via SharpLink’s investor relations page or the SEC’s EDGAR database before positioning (source: @rovercrc on X; SharpLink investor relations; SEC EDGAR). For trading execution, focus on confirmation risk: monitor Linea’s bridge and explorer for unusual ETH flows or staking activity near the cited date, and track ETH derivatives for volatility shifts tied to large-stake headlines (source: Linea docs and explorer; Deribit market data).

According to @lookonchain, an Ethereum ICO participant who received 1,000,000 ETH reactivated after 8 years and transferred 150,000 ETH valued at about $645M to a new wallet for staking, source: @lookonchain.

According to @rovercrc, the amount of staked ETH is surging and selling pressure appears low based on his post dated 2025-08-09, suggesting a potential supply-tightening backdrop for ETH. Source: @rovercrc on X, 2025-08-09. For trading impact, a higher staking ratio reduces immediately liquid ETH because validator exits are gated by protocol withdrawal mechanics and queues, which can tighten circulating supply during demand spikes.

According to @KookCapitalLLC, a post on X claims Harvard bought 1,000 BTC and that CNBC audiences are newly discovering ETH staking, implying mainstream FOMO could begin (source: @KookCapitalLLC on X, Aug 9, 2025). The post provides no corroborating filings, wallet evidence, or official statements, so traders should treat this as an unverified single-source narrative and seek confirmation before positioning (source: @KookCapitalLLC on X, Aug 9, 2025). For trading, consider monitoring BTC and ETH spot volumes, perpetual funding, basis, and options skew for momentum shifts linked to narrative-driven flows, and watch for any institutional disclosure or on-chain movement that could validate the claim (source: @KookCapitalLLC on X, Aug 9, 2025).
