The risk vs return of solo staking doesn't make much sense today. With the liquidity advantages and less technical risk - one is generally better off buying an LST . As a result the relative proportion are already falling. This is really harmful for network health and decentralisation.  /1

One thing we can do is encourage those solo-stakers with more than a few validators to natively re-stake a small proportion with EigenLayer: EL boosted staking rewards are going to far out compete pure beacon chain rewards in the near future.  /2

Smoothly

Separately from restaking, I’m hoping that pools like /smoothly can help level out the playing field in terms of EV from tips and MEV
