Analyst: The final approval for Ethereum staking ETH is expected to be advanced to next month

ChainCatcher news, the Ethereum (ETH) staking entry queue has dropped to its lowest level in four weeks, raising concerns in the market about a potential massive sell-off due to the surge in exit queues.

The market has found that the continuous accumulation and buying of Ethereum treasury and spot ETH ETFs are absorbing the selling pressure. Most of these institutions have already staked assets or plan to do so for additional returns, which may drive an increase in the staking entry queue in the coming weeks.

Another positive expectation is the potential launch of ETH staking ETFs, which means some investors may release liquidity and re-enter related products in the future to adjust market exposure, rather than completely exiting the ETH market.

The final approval deadline set by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is April 2026. According to analyst Axel Bitblaze, approval is expected to come as early as October 2025. He added, "BlackRock's ETH staking approval has a next deadline in October, and I believe approval is likely to happen."
