Ethereum just pushed close to 30% staked supply while price tests its 200 day EMA near $3,339 on the daily chart. The setup puts long term commitment and a major resistance level in the same frame.
Staked ETH reaches new highs as locked supply edges toward one third
Ethereum staking climbed past 36 million ETH, pushing the share of supply locked in the network to nearly 30%, according to data shown by ValidatorQueue.com and a post by X user Broke Doomer (@im_BrokeDoomer). The post also pegged the value securing the Ethereum network at more than $118 billion, based on the staked balance.

A “Supply Staked” chart from ValidatorQueue.com shows total ETH staked rising from roughly 18–20 million at the start of the timeline to above 36 million at the latest point. Meanwhile, the percentage line climbed in parallel, moving from the mid teens to just under 30%.
The steepest gains appeared early in the series, when staked ETH accelerated into the high 20 millions and then crossed 30 million. After that, the curve flattened, with the total hovering in the low to mid 30 millions before resuming an upward trend toward the current peak.
Recent readings show the staked balance consolidating around the mid 35 millions and then pushing higher again. At the same time, the supply share stayed close to the 30% mark, signaling that staking growth kept pace with changes in circulating supply during the same period.
ETH tests 200 day EMA after rebound from $3,075 area
Meanhwile, Ethereum rose to about $3,374 on the daily ETHUSD chart on Bitstamp on Jan. 14, 2026, up about 1.53% on the session, as price pushed into the area of its 200 day exponential moving average near $3,339. The move followed a rebound from the low $3,000s that lifted ETH back above several shorter term trend gauges shown on the chart.

A post by Swazers Charts (@SwazersC) said an earlier ETH call was up about 9.6% and described the approach to the 200 EMA as a key test. The chart annotation also marked a prior “bounce” level near $3,075, which sits below the current trading zone and lines up with the most recent swing low area in early January.
The indicator panel shows ETH trading above its 9 day EMA near $3,196, the 21 day EMA near $3,128, and the 50 day EMA near $3,140. That clustering below price reflects short term strength after the rebound, while the 100 day EMA near $3,288 sits just under the 200 day EMA and adds another layer of resistance near the current level.
Swazers Charts pointed to $3,668 as a potential next level. On the chart, that target sits above the 200 day EMA zone, so the immediate question is whether ETH can hold above the long term average on a daily close, then turn it into support on a retest.
