I've been using Ethereum recently and I've noticed that it's been really sluggish. Transactions are taking longer to process and the network seems to be struggling. I'm wondering why this is happening and if there's anything that can be done to improve its performance. Why is Ethereum sluggish?

Staking is a process where investors lock their ETH in support of the network, and in return, they receive rewards for their contribution.

The sluggish price performance of Ethereum can be attributed to a specific factor related to the newly launched Ethereum ETFs.

This means that investors who purchase these ETFs are unable to earn rewards through staking, which could potentially be a deterrent for some investors.
