According to @ItsDave_ADA, the Ethereum staking entry queue is now an estimated ~25 days and 4 hours to activate, up from around 7.55 days, representing a more than 3x increase in a short period; source: @ItsDave_ADA. According to @ItsDave_ADA, the Ethereum exit queue is roughly ~14 minutes, down from approximately 44.25 days, a drop of well over 4,000x from weeks to minutes; source: @ItsDave_ADA. According to @ItsDave_ADA, this wide variance between entry and exit queues makes staking behavior unpredictable and heavily state dependent, creating timing uncertainty for staking strategies and validator activation planning; source: @ItsDave_ADA. According to @ItsDave_ADA, Cardano is preferred for predictability because there is no entry queue, delegation is reflected on-chain immediately, and the only delay is a fixed active stake period of 2 epochs (~10 days) before delegation changes take effect; source: @ItsDave_ADA.

According to @EmberCN, ETH peaked near $4,700 in mid-September and has since fallen about 34% to roughly $3,100. According to validatorqueue.com cited by @EmberCN, the unstaking backlog has been largely cleared with only about 80,000 ETH still waiting to exit. According to validatorqueue.com cited by @EmberCN, the deposit (entry) queue now exceeds 1,000,000 ETH, reflecting net inflows into staking. According to ARKM Intel cited by @EmberCN, treasury entity BitMNR recently deposited 82,560 ETH and has staked over 500,000 ETH since 12/27, with total ETH holdings reported at 4.11 million and approximately 13.2% currently staked. According to @EmberCN, the earlier exit wave totaled roughly 2.66 million ETH and has been digested over about three and a half months.
