Ethereum (ETH) saw a significant rise in value thanks to the Shapella development. There were concerns that ETH’s staking protocol could lead to a surge in withdrawals and a drop in value. But, contrary to those expectations, ETH’s value increased and surpassed the $2,000 mark. However, at press time, ETH has dropped below $2,000 and is trading at $1,985.
Binance, being a key player in the cryptocurrency industry, has made an important announcement regarding the ETH 2.0 staking withdrawal.
