Ethereum's staking entry queue currently holds about 1.4 million ETH, valued at $3.59 billion, with a wait time of over 24 days. If an estimated 565,056 ETH from MetaMask-operated validators were redeposited while the backlog remains, the queue could rise to nearly 2 million ETH, worth around $5.04 billion, extending the wait to about 34 days. This scenario follows a security incident on Sept. 30 that led MetaMask to initiate precautionary validator exits, though no funds were compromised. The gradual return of these validators could pressure the staking entry capacity, impacting staking rewards and queue times in the coming weeks.
