Although these digital assets seem to be following the general crypto market uptrend, there is another factor pushing up their prices. Why Are Liquid Staking Crypto On The Rise? Liquid staking cryptocurrencies have been receiving more attention ever since the announcement that the Ethereum \u201cShanghai\u201d upgrade is likely to take place in March 2023. This upgrade is important for the network because it will mean that staked ETH will finally be withdrawable.
