Across the board, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/ethereum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Ethereum<\/a> held on exchanges has fallen to its lowest level since 2016, a shift driven by back-to-back withdrawals and a staking surge that is pulling coins deeper out of circulation.<\/p>\n<h2>A Wave Of Withdrawals Across Major Platforms<\/h2>\n<p>On March 22, crypto analyst Amr Taha flagged a $1.67 billion ETH <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/quicktake\/69c3c4e0153c6a26e0ae839f-ETH-exchange-supply-is-tightening-after-a-massive-167B-withdrawal-from-OKX-while\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">withdrawal<\/a> from OKX. Binance also recorded two separate outflows topping $300 million earlier in the quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Those moves didn\u2019t happen in isolation. Data from analyst Arab Chain show that roughly 31.6 million ETH left major exchanges in February alone \u2014 the biggest monthly outflow since November.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-889000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/A.jpg_5c874c.png?resize=1024%2C585\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Binance accounted for about 14.45 million ETH of that total, close to half. OKX followed with around 3.80 million ETH, and Kraken recorded roughly 1 million ETH during the same stretch.<\/p>\n<p>When coins leave exchanges at that pace, it matters. Sustained withdrawals shrink the pool of coins available for spot trading.<\/p>\n<p>Assets moved to private wallets or staking platforms tend to be less liquid in the near term, and thinner exchange balances can sharpen price swings when market activity picks up.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum: Staking Reaches A Record High<\/h2>\n<p>The withdrawal story runs alongside a staking story, and together they paint a picture of tightening supply. About 38 million ETH is now locked in staking, equal to roughly 33% of total supply \u2014 the highest level on record.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/LyndkUQb\/\" width=\"1814\" height=\"877\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Staking infrastructure provider Everstake weighed in on what that means for the market. The company said that a steady drop in liquid supply, combined with ongoing demand, sets up conditions for a structurally firmer price floor.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not a short-term trade signal. It\u2019s a longer-term structural shift \u2014 one where a growing share of ETH is committed to the network rather than sitting ready to be sold.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts are watching what happens next on the price chart.
