Users can seamlessly convert the synthetic asset BETH into ETH at a 1:1 ratio. The platform also opened commission-free trading in BETH/ETH and BETH/USDT pairs. The offer runs until May 10.

According to Nansen data, Binance clients’ staking deposits account for 5.5% of the total, ranking fourth among identified sources.

The service notes that users on the centralized exchange also placed 192,074 ETH on the withdrawal waitlist — 20% of the total volume.

The latter, including rewards, stands at 18.78 million ETH, representing 14.5% of the cryptocurrency’s supply.

The average price of staking coins was $2,137.

On April 19, Ethereum fell below the $2,000 level. Bitcoin fell below $28,000.

In April, the daily inflow into ETH staking for the first time since the activation of the Shapella hard fork exceeded the withdrawal volume.
