Ethereum was meant to launch a Shanghai upgrade so stakers could finally take out their ETH. However, turns out it was delayed once again.

For those who are keeping ETH staked, obviously it is disappointing. People have been locked up for numerous months, counting on being able to cash out when this upgrade arrives. Waiting is now extended.

What is reason for this delay?
Mostly the Ethereum developers are being extremely cautious. This upgrade is not small deal as it unlocks billions of ETH that is stuck within the network. Even a single mistake could bring trouble to system.

You may find this annoying when you are waiting on your funds. However, it is also reasonable. If rushed, it could create much larger problems which include bugs in code, problems with network or security difficulties.

If your ETH is staked just for holding, maybe it does not affect you. But if you wanted to swap or move your ETH soon you need to think again.

The silver lining is that Ethereum continues to be a leading, and the upgrades most often make it stronger through time.

Crypto is never quick sometimes patience is important or a person could fall behind.

May your candles be forever green. See ya tomorrow
