I have 3 validators that were recently exited because of the recent security issue. They are now fully withdrawn and I can claim my ETH back.

The issue the available balance in MetaMask clearly shows that my principal is suffering a haircut of 10%. I’ve checked each validator on the Beacon Chain and the balance shows that my principal is intact. The 3 validators show the following:

1. MetaMask: 28.9104 =\> Beacon Chain: 32.12

2. MetaMask: 28.9104 =\> Beacon Chain: 32.12

3. MetaMask: 29.0992 =\> Beacon Chain: 32.33

I can claim my ETH back but the transaction I am asked to sign does not indicate how much ETH I am claiming. The difference in balances clearly shows a 10% haircut on the principal.

Is this a UI issue? What will I receive if I claim back my staked ETH? Has anyone else faced this issue?
