Staking Ethereum is becoming increasingly popular and a major event in the blockchain space. More than 19 million Ether (ETH) has been staked on the Beacon Chain and, with an average price of $1,964 per ETH, this amounts to a total of nearly $38 billion. Following the upgrades in the Ethereum Shanghai upgrade, 111,378 ETH, amounting to $216.3 million, has been withdrawn from the blockchain. A significant portion of this was from LidoFinance, coming to a total of 63,695 ETH.

ETH withdrawals can be full or partial, depending on the user's preference. If a user had more than 32 ETH, they can withdraw to an Ethereum address, while consequently, the remaining balance is used as a validator on the Beacon Chain. Partial withdrawals are processed rather quickly, and currently, only 3.5% of validators are waiting on full withdrawals.

While this process is quite efficient, there are still limits to how many withdrawals can be processed in a single block. To be precise, 16 withdrawals can be processed at once, meaning 115,200 validator withdrawals are processed per day. Despite the limitations present, Ethereum's large transactions volume is still incredibly impressive because it only took five days to process 567,201 validator withdrawals.

To ensure successful withdrawals, users must submit a valid 0x01 withdrawal certificate as well as a withdrawal address. Fortunately, this information is easily accessible on sites like Ethereum browser, Token Unlock, and Nansen; making tracking of withdrawals in the Ethereum blockchain simple for users.

In conclusion, the Ethereum blockchain does not appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Investors and the rest of the Ethereum enthusiast community can expect for more growth and development in the near future as the blockchain continues to become more and more advanced.
