This marks the lowest share since March 2022.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the platform\u2019s withdrawal queue has surged to its highest level since withdrawal functionality was enabled, with more than 235,000 stETH awaiting exit.<\/p>\n<p>The growing exit pressure follows significant withdrawals from several major players, including <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/justin-sun\/\">Justin Sun<\/a>, investment firms like Abraxas Capital, and staking platforms like Ether.fi.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the significant withdrawal request, Lido remains the largest Ethereum staking provider by a wide margin. It currently holds over nine million ETH, with its nearest competitors, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/binance\/\">Binance<\/a> and Coinbase, trailing significantly.<\/p>\n<p>According to its website, the platform still offers a 2.8% annual percentage rate (APR) and reports more than $33 billion in total value locked.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"777\" data-end=\"1096\">stETH depeg<\/h2>\n<p>The downturn in Lido\u2019s market position coincides with a prolonged depegging of stETH from ETH.<\/p>\n<p>Blockchain analytics platform Glassnode attributed this to rising WETH borrow rates on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/aave\/\">Aave<\/a>, which rendered popular leveraged staking strategies unprofitable.
