Ethereum Exchange Balance Hits Record Low as Staking Participation Surges

Ethereum's exchange balance has hit an all-time low, with only 3.49% of its total supply remaining on tracked exchanges.

This significant reduction in available liquidity is a result of ETH holders moving their coins off exchanges and staking them instead.

Around 43.46 million ETH, roughly 35% of the total supply, is currently staked, further tightening immediate liquidity.

The shrinking exchange balance has led to an improving weekly chart for Ethereum, with its price reaching $2,807, a higher high since August 2025.

However, despite this positive development, the daily chart shows weaker momentum, and the ETH price needs to break above $2,920 to confirm further upside towards the $3,400 reference.
