Avalanche Staking Hits $204M As Fuji Testnet Activates Helicon Upgrade
Avalanche staking value has reached about $204.77 million, while the Fuji testnet has activated the Helicon upgrade, giving AVAX watchers two separate network signals to track.
The validated notes show staked AVAX representing roughly 43% of circulating supply. The Helicon upgrade activated on Fuji testnet on July 30, 2026, while derivatives positioning remained active, with high open interest and long-to-short positioning.

That distinction matters because staking stories are often misread as accumulation headlines. This is really about network participation and upgrade progress.
