Treasury Companies Bet Big: ETH Staking and Price Surge Post-Pectra

Released between June 1 and July 15, 2025, the Pectra upgrade greatly increased Ethereum (ETH) staking and resulted in a net inflow of 1. 51 million ETH, over 500,000 ETH coming from treasury companies. Pectra's improved features—faster onboarding, simplified processes, better account abstraction and usability, and greater validator staking limit (up to 2,048 ETH)—fuel this surge. These enhancements made staking more appealing for both institutional and individual participants, therefore encouraging increased institutional adoption, strengthening network security, and creating a favorable path for future ETH staking development.

ETHUSD surges above $3600 on strong institutional demand. It hits an intraday high of $3630 and is currently trading around $3613.

Overall trend remains bullish  as long as support $2000 remains intact. Watch out for $3650, any break above targets $3800/$4000. A robust bullish trend will only materialize above $4100.

Immediate support is around $3400. Any violation below will drag the price down to $3200/$3000/$2880/$2770/$2650/$2534/$2435/$2374/$2000/$1750/$1675/$1620/$1500/$1200/$1000. A breach below $1000 could see Ethereum plummet to $800/$500.

It is good to buy on dips around $3400 with SL around $3200 for a TP of $4100.
