Ethereum's unstaking queue surged 392% since early October, reaching about 850,000 ETH waiting to exit the validator set—the highest this year. This spike followed a security breach at MetaMask Staking, which led to the exit of nearly 17,000 validators holding around 523,000 ETH as a precaution. The total queued ETH represents about 2% of all staked ETH, with the exit process expected to complete by October 7. Despite the large queue, the overall staked ETH remains high, and the selling pressure is spread out over time, limiting immediate market impact.
