ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the amount of Ethereum pending for staking has surged to its highest level since 2023, as institutional traders and crypto savings firms seek to earn rewards on their holdings. On Tuesday, the Ethereum staking entry queue reached its highest level since September 2023. On-chain data shows that 860,369 Ethereum (worth about $3.7 billion) are waiting to be staked. After the staking exit queue hit a record high of just over 1 million ETH, the entry and exit queues nearly reached balance for the first time, and then the exit queue dropped by 20%, indicating a slowdown in the pace of Ethereum withdrawals. According to Ultrasound.Money data, 35.7 million ETH have already been staked on the blockchain, worth about $162 billion, accounting for 31% of the total supply.

Jinse Finance reported that Priyanka Sachdeva, an analyst at Philip Nova, stated in a report that if the spot gold price continues to break through $3,500, gold prices may reach the range of $3,600 to $3,900 per ounce in the coming months. She said that the United States' aggressive tariff stance has increased geopolitical risks and fueled safe-haven investments. She noted that factors such as expectations of interest rate cuts, political turmoil, and strong ETF demand have turned gold from a tactical hedge into a strategic must-have asset for many investors. Sachdeva believes that the $3,800 per ounce target could be the first clear psychological threshold for gold prices to break through the current high. (Golden Ten Data)
