🚨 **Ethereum’s validator exit queue just exploded 392%.**

The amount of **$ETH** waiting to leave staking surged sharply in early October, reaching roughly **850K ETH** at its peak — the highest exit queue of 2026.

But here’s the important part: **validators exiting staking does NOT automatically mean they’re dumping ETH.**

Ethereum limits how quickly validators can exit, so a sudden wave of exits can build into a large queue and take days to process.

A major portion of the recent spike was linked to precautionary validator exits following a MetaMask Staking security incident.
