Regulatory concerns and worries of an immediate ether supply boost after the Shanghai upgrade are keeping investors from aggressively bidding up $ETH. reports godbole17

"If all partial withdrawals are attempted just after the Shapella fork , it would take around four and a half days for these ETH profits to enter the market," Lucas Outumuro, head of research at IntoTheBlock, said in a note published Friday."It would take approximately 100 days for one-third of validators to exit if they all attempt to exit simultaneously, translating into $80-$100M worth of ETH being withdrawn per day.

In February, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that Ethereum staking services offered by centralized exchanges amount to selling unregistered securities in the U.S.

"ETH faces relatively higher regulatory risks. The SEC has repeatedly stated that ETH is a security rather than a commodity, which differs from the CFTC's opinion and means additional risk, so investors understandably prefer BTC," Ardern said.

All the stars are aligning for a rotation into ETH."

godbole17 These are unfounded concerns that in order to withdraw ETH, validators would have to queue up and it would take a lot of time to withdraw all funds, thus there won't be a sudden surge in supply.
