A simple change to issuance like this will not stop LST dominance but it WILL kill off many Rocket Pool node operators who are far more sensitive to rate changes. If the goal is to keep Ethereum's solo stakers relevant, than this approach is not sufficient. 1/n

Going from 3.5% to just over 2% yield at the current amount staked will have demonstrable impacts on home stakers! We cannot push this upgrade into Electra without understanding these impacts. Lowering staking yield will incentivize solo stakers to go out on the risk curve w/ restaking/abandoning node to hold LSTs.

I strongly believe this proposal will harm solo stakers and benefit LSP dominance, even if it limits the total amount staked. I support MVI, but I am far from convinced that this is viable.

What do you believe solo stakers will do, once this 2% (nominal!) yield is reached with the current curve, and the world around them is holding and using LSTs while their capital is stuck in a node?

I understand the concern, nobody likes to end the party, but I think we should have an honest conversation without hyperboles on where we think we're going with the current state of things. There is no free yield in any world, so it really is all about maximising relative differences

I believe this maximisation is far easier to do in a world where the staking set is limited and no one is able to become king of the hill (where the hill is not just the staking set, but the whole network indeed). Agreed with your points however that the conversation must be had

I agree! I think the current proposal makes the hill more centralized. (relative) high nominal yield seems like the only way to ensure solo stakers stay relevant and in good numbers.
