Rocket Pool

I like Rocket Pool, but I feel like they really need to expand the deposit pool and reduce the RPL requirement for new minipools so that they can onboard way more users and validators.

Feels like a dismissive take when there’s no reason RPL needs to exist. Agree if one just makes the argument about scale/decentralization from a collateral perspective but could be done w/ ETH.

RPL already exists and you can't remove it without rugging existing RPL holders

Plenty of research seems to be happening to remove the RPL requirement and find other sources of value for RPL. Are they all dumb like what you are insinuating?

I'll ignore your snark

They are workarounds to remove the RPL bond requirement to compete with Lido CSM and Diva ETH-only validators

But you can't get rid of the token without rugging existing holders. If there's no need to buy RPL it will bleed to 0
