🚨SOLANA just flipped
ETHEREUM in staking market cap!
• Solana: $56.7B | 65% staked
• Ethereum: $56.2B | 29% staked
But here’s what most people miss:
Ethereum staking is about to explode.
Why? One word: Pectra
👇🧵
⸻
1. Big unlock for big stakers
🔷 EIP-7251 raises validator cap from 32 → 2048 ETH
🔷 Whales and institutions can stake more with less infra
🔷 Rewards now compound on the full balance
⸻
2. Staking becomes seamless
🔷 EIP-6110: deposits recognized in minutes
🔷 Less waiting = more participation from retail and funds
⸻
3. Yields go up — automatically
🔷 Auto-compounding boosts effective APY
🔷 No manual restaking needed
🔷 Better returns, same effort
⸻
If ETH staking hits 40%:
🔷 48M ETH staked
🔷 At $1,980 = $95B staking market cap
→ That’s +69% from today
→ Clean flip of Solana
⸻
Pectra isn’t just a protocol upgrade.
It’s a capital unlock that could reshape ETH’s entire economic layer.
Don’t fade the shift.
