Global payments infrastructure platform Mercuryo has made it possible for its users to easily access Everstake’s suite of staking services by launching on-ramp services for the company, which is a leading global provider of blockchain and staking solutions.
The introduction of on-ramps on the Everstake platform, which guarantees high uptime thanks to its strong worldwide infrastructure and team’s specialized knowledge, offers its users a useful way to access Ethereum (ETH) staking.
One essential element of the Ethereum ecosystem’s sustainability is ETH staking. According to Everstake, which compiled data from many onchain sources, the number of active validators has increased by 130 percent from 456,909 to 1,052,014 after Ethereum’s full transition to a Proof-of-Stake consensus in 2022.
Additionally, according to Everstake data, the amount of ETH staked on the market has steadily increased by 15.5%, from 29,216,256 in January 2024 to 33,745,280 in January 2025.
Petr Kozyakov, Co-Founder and CEO at Mercuryo stated:
“We are delighted with the launch of these on-ramps for ETH staking. Staking in the Ethereum ecosystem has a bright future as evidenced by the impressive growth in ETH staking that we’ve witnessed on the Everstake platform over the past year.”
Bohdan Opryshko, COO at Everstake stated:
“We’ve really seen a significant increase in the amount of staked ETH over the past year and we aim to make staking as simple as possible. With Mercuryo’s payment integration, users can buy and stake ETH in just a few clicks with no technical hassle, just easy access to staking rewards. We’re excited to work with a leading payment provider like Mercuryo to bring Web3 closer to millions of users.”
Etherscan data shows that between October 1, 2022, and February 5, 2025, the number of unique Ethereum wallets climbed by 44.7 percent, indicating a rise in the use of the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Participants in the ecosystem have also embraced the recent increase in the gas limit and Ethereum’s impending Pectra upgrade as ways to spur development.
Because Ethereum employs a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism rather than the energy-intensive Proof of Work (PoW) approach, ETH staking is ecologically benign. After switching to PoS, Ethereum became one of the most energy-efficient blockchain networks while preserving decentralization and security.
