ETH supply lock refers to the quantity of Ethereum (ETH) that is intentionally removed from active circulation, typically by being deposited into staking contracts or decentralized finance protocols. This action restricts the immediate tradable supply of ETH. It signifies a commitment by holders to support network operations or participate in various ecosystem applications. A supply lock contributes to asset scarcity.
