According to the validator queue tracking website Validatorqueue data, the current Ethereum network exit queue is 893,599 tokens, which is close to $4 billion at current prices, with a withdrawal waiting time of about 15 days.
Against the background of waiting for over two weeks, the on-chain data analysis platform Lookonchain posted at noon that the address 0x2aC9 directly exchanged 4,242.4 stETH for 4,231 ETH at market price (transaction amount of approximately $18.74 million).
After completing the exchange, the address immediately transferred all obtained ETH to the exchange Kraken, seemingly to cash out. This operation received 11.4 ETH less than the theoretical 1:1 exchange ratio, which means he paid a price difference loss of about $50,500.
Although the total proportion is less than 0.3%, if ETH's price drops by more than 0.3% during this period, he would still be profitable; however, the action of being willing to pay fifty thousand dollars to "get off early" has sparked community discussion about whether he had advance knowledge of something.
