🚀DeFi lovers, gather 'round! Ethereum's validator waitlist is the longest since October, with 7,045 eager beavers ready to stake their ETH! 🎉 But hold up, the yield on staked ether is still below 4% 😅 So why the sudden interest? 🧐

David Lawant from FalconX says it's a sign of "renewed vitality" 💪 But we're still far from the 75,000 stakers after Ethereum's Shapella upgrade last year. 📉

Meanwhile, Ether's 10% gain last week lagged behind Bitcoin's 14.5% 🐢 Is it the uncertainty around US-based spot ETFs or the SEC's categorization of ether? 🤔
