PANews reported on September 18th that in response to the discussion about the waiting time for staking, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said: "Staking means taking on the solemn responsibility of defending the blockchain. Exit resistance is part of the protocol. This is not to say that the current staking queue design is optimal, but to say that if the relevant parameter settings are naively reduced, the credibility of the chain will be greatly reduced from the perspective of those nodes that are not often online." Data from the validatorqueue website shows that as of now, the number of ETH in the Ethereum PoS network exit queue is 2,496,141, with a waiting time of approximately 43 days and 8 hours. During the same period, the number of ETH waiting to be activated is 464,626, with an estimated activation delay of approximately 8 days and 2 hours.PANews reported on September 18th that in response to the discussion about the waiting time for staking, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said: "Staking means taking on the solemn responsibility of defending the blockchain.

Synthetix to launch first perps DEX on Ethereum mainnet

The post Synthetix to launch first perps DEX on Ethereum mainnet appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Synthetix is set to launch the first perpetual decentralized exchange on Ethereum mainnet in Q4 2025, kicking off with a $1 million trading competition. Summary Synthetix to launch first perpetual DEX on Ethereum mainnet in Q4 2025. Traders can use sUSDe, wstETH, and cbBTC as multi-collateral margin. Launch begins with a $1M trading competition starting in October.

This enables users to earn funding or staking yields, keep exposure to ETH or BTC, and avoid triggering taxable events when opening perp positions.

For example, traders can deposit wstETH, short ETH perps in equal size, and benefit from staking rewards and positive funding payments. By enabling these setups directly on Ethereum, Synthetix removes the need for bridging and expands composability with decentralized finance protocols like Aave. Synthetix trading competition details Starting in October, Synthetix will hold a one-month trading competition prior to launch, with 100 traders chosen from among Kwenta point holders, top users, and pre-depositors. Using seeded margin capital, competitors will compete in well-known markets like…
