@meta Look at link 8 Currently 8.5 million ETH are locked. That is < 8% of the supply. On 01.12.2020 it went off. The APY is also rather low compared to other networks with currently about 5%. In link 8 you can see an approximate distribution. There you can see the largest pools. Many of the largest pools do liquid staking. Lido, Kraken, Binance, Huobi. That means whoever wants to get out can often do so at the moment. Apart from that, there should also be solutions for those who want to get out with institutional administrators like Staked.us. The simplest is a 1 to 1 swap. As a custodian, I give 32 ETH back to someone who wants out and someone who wants in gives up the 32 ETH. The other factor is when you switch to PoS, the incentive to keep staking is much greater. Currently the rewards are locked at the network level. That is, without the additional solutions, you currently do not get the reward at all. Furthermore, a validator can not just immediately out, just as you can not just immediately in. The last point would be that all the really in non-liquid form Staken obviously believe in the success of ETH and thus also in a long-term increase in value. That just these people then dump everything (which as already said would not go directly) I think is unrealistic. Sure, there will be sales, but I think a price drop is unlikely. In addition, ETH will probably also become deflationary in the longer term due to the burn, so appreciation is likely.
