Shanghai Hard Fork Hope Overpowers Fed Fear

There were no updates from engineers working on the Shapella testnet on Sunday. The lack of quiet on Sunday put ETH on the back foot as the anticipated Shanghai hard fork approached.


Yet, the upside was mitigated by market confidence. Updates from the Shanghai hard fork have been good despite delays to the Ethereum Merge. The recent SEC action against US staking services has put stakeholder opinions on the hard fork to the test.


Since the Kraken settlement with the SEC, ETH staking inflows have been inconsistent, generating doubt about whether the Shanghai hard fork would result in an ETH price breakout.


CryptoQuant reports that daily ETH staking inflows reached a low of 4,896 ETH on February 23 before increasing. The inflows peaked at 33,280 EHT on February 14 before declining. The amount of ETH staked as of February 19 was 16,800 ETH.
