surged above the $2,700 mark for the first time in nearly two weeks, rallying 7.17% over the past 24 hours, touching an intraday high of $2,724, before slightly retreating to $2,666.16 at press time.
According to CoinMarketCap data, the price surge coincided with a dramatic 84.23% spike in trading volume and staked ETH reaching an all-time high.
Ethereum staking soars: 34.8m eth locked in
According to data from Beaconcha.in and Dune Analytics, the total amount of ETH staked on the Beacon Chain has surged to 34.8 million ETH, surpassing the previous peak set in November 2024.
This marks a substantial commitment from long-term holders, especially considering the circulating supply of ETH currently sits at 120.8 million, making the staked amount 28.7% of the total supply.
Staking activity has remained steady above 33 million ETH for the past year but began ticking upward again in early June. Analysts attribute this to a growing preference for yield generation through staking over short-term selling.
Notably, the network’s recent return to inflationary issuance in February has not deterred crypto market participants.

Also, Fibonacci Levels (drawn from the most recent swing high to low) show that ETH is currently testing 0.382 Fib (2,702). A breakout above the 0.5 Fib level ($2,818) could open the door to stronger upside.
If ETH manages to close above $2,818, it could validate the continuation of this upward trend with potential upside toward the $3,000–$3,300 zone in the short-to-mid term.
