In a meeting, developers predicted that the Shanghai upgrade will be finished in March 2023. In order to withdraw stacked funds that are not on the network, "Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 4895" is expected to introduce new withdrawal methods using network validators. The Beacon Chain's funds cannot be withdrawn under the existing arrangement.
The Shanghai update would be a significant step in resolving the issue with staked ETH withdrawals. Additionally, it will give investors who had accumulated funds in Ether before to the merger when Ethereum switched from a proof of work to a proof of stake agreement more freedom. As the merge journey moves along, the crew is concentrated on making sure Shanghai enhancements fulfill their deadline.
According to cryptocurrency specialists, the Shanghai upgrade in March 2023 will serve as a catalyst for the widespread sale of Ethereum.

Enhanced Withdrawals
A developer and project manager at Ethereum, Pooja Ranjan, reaffirmed that the upgrade in place would allow withdrawals to function if circumstances unfold as expected.
Shanghai will pave the way for other network improvements including "proto-danksharding," which will enhance the volume of transactions the network can process at once.
As the Ethereum network prepares to expand, the enhancements will enhance the services it provides.
Anticipated Withdrawals Following Shanghai
High levels of volatility in the cryptocurrency market continue to discourage investors from making new investments. By March 2023, if the current trend holds, there will have been 15 million withdrawals, or 12% of the total supply of $ETH. The network will come up with alternative plans to persuade users not to make large withdrawals.
According to CryptoQuant.com, there were 57% fewer depositors in 2022 than there were in 2021. The amount deposited remained constant, showing a 133% rise.
