Over the past three days, 238 million ICP, worth roughly $879 million, have been staked for eight years, signalling renewed confidence among investors following the recent market downturn. Data shows that 44.3 per cent of the total ICP supply is now staked, reflecting a long-term commitment by holders who are moving coins off centralised exchanges into staking contracts.
Experts note that long-term staking allows investors to secure continuous rewards while insulating themselves from short-term market volatility. The recent spike comes amid broader concerns about centralised platforms, with many users opting to stake directly on the network rather than leave assets exposed on exchanges.
Observers see this as a positive indicator of the Internet Computer ecosystem’s resilience. The increase in long-term staking demonstrates both the platform’s security appeal and the community’s willingness to prioritise stable, predictable returns over speculative trading.
