Quick take:<\/strong><\/p>\n Binance CEO<\/a>, Changpeng Zhao, has hinted via Twitter that he might purchase 32 ETH to support development on the Ethereum blockchain. CZ’s exact statement<\/a> was as follows.<\/p>\n I might buy 32 <\/span>#ETH<\/span>, just for the cause. <\/span><\/p>\n Not financial advice. Just supporting ETH development.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n CZ’s words are clear in the sense that his intention to buy 32 ETH is to stake them<\/a> as part of the required Ethereum to trigger Phase 0 of ETH2.0.<\/p>\n A total of 16,284 deposits of 32 ETH<\/a> are required to trigger this stage of ETH2.0 which has been estimated to occur on the 1st of December. Furthermore, the required Ethereum (ETH) needs to be deposited 7 days prior to the aforementioned date for Phase 0 to occur as planned.<\/p>\n CZ musing about buying 32 ETH<\/a> might be as a result of a decrease in Ethereum deposits required for ETH2.0.<\/p>\n At the time of writing, there has only been one deposit for today of the minimum 32 Ethereum. Furthermore, deposits of the required Ethereum have decreased from around the 6th of November. The screenshot below from CryptoQuant<\/a> provides a better visual cue of the situation. It is of a chart of Ethereum’s price (black) plotted alongside the number of Ethereum inflows (orange) into the ETH2.0 deposit contract per day.<\/p>\n\n
