Neutral
Even though di sudden add 700,000 ETH enter di exit queue fit make short-term congestion and wahala for Ethereum, most of di ETH wey dem withdraw probably go get re-stake pass to sell. Kiln assurance say dia funds dey safe, plus dia ongoing forensic checks and di general belief say stakers go hold dia positions mean say di immediate selling pressure go low. For long term, dis kasa show say staking security need to strong, but e no too get chance to change ETH price direction wahala.
