Ethereum’s Shapella hard fork executed on mainnet

The Shapella hard fork has officially been executed on the Ethereum mainnet — meaning that Ethereum validators can finally withdraw their staked Ether from the Beacon Chain.

The long-awaited upgrade took effect at 10:27 pm UTC on April 12 at epoch number 194 048.

Currently, around 44% of validators, or 248 043 of the total active 559 549, can request a partial or full withdrawal.

The majority of withdrawals at this time range between 2.8 to 3.2 ETH, which suggests that it’s mostly staking rewards that are being withdrawn at this time.
