The share of Ether held on tracked platforms has declined 1.16% since June 1, while staking, DeFi activity and on-chain demand keep more ETH outside exchange order books.

Ether’s share of supply held on tracked exchanges has fallen to a record-low 3.49%, reducing the amount of ETH immediately available for trading or selling.

The share of Ether (ETH) held on tracked platforms has declined 1.16% since June 1. The change does not by itself guarantee higher prices, but it shows that less of the asset’s supply is sitting on exchange order books.

An estimated 35% of ETH is staked. About $53 billion is locked in decentralized finance applications on the Ethereum network, where Ether can remain active on-chain or be used in financial protocols. Long-term holders and large treasury holders have also kept more ETH away from exchanges.

Ether recently climbed from about $1,900 to $2,800 over a month before retreating toward $2,660. Network activity has remained firm during the pullback.

Gas Used stood at about 217.1 billion, up 0.26%. Priority Fees reached nearly $464,000, a 26.74% increase over the past day. These fees are paid to encourage faster transaction processing, and their increase indicates stronger competition for available block space.

Blocks Mined remained nearly unchanged at about 7,147. That suggests the higher fees were tied to demand for existing block space rather than a significant increase in block production.

The combination of lower exchange-held supply and continued network activity leaves fewer ETH readily available on tracked trading platforms while usage remains active on Ethereum.
