Temporarily unlocking the channel for everyone to be able to post because the process for joining channels still seems kind of unclear / difficult and it would be nice for new stakers to be able to post. There wasn't a lot of bot spam before, anyway. Preferences?

Any thoughts on dgnETH? I am going too far out on the risk curve with it? https://medium.com/@kristhiann97/what-if-you-could-benefit-from-the-lst-market-through-a-token-meet-dgneth-15ce48705940

EthStaker is proud to be releasing its first production version of ethstaker-deposit-cli https://github.com/eth-educators/ethstaker-deposit-cli/releases/tag/v1.0.0. This CLI tool can be used to generate your validator keys, to generate your voluntary exit, to add a withdrawal address to an existing validator that does not have one and few other features. Check out documentation website on https://deposit-cli.ethstaker.cc/ for all details. Huge thanks to Valefar, Yorick, @nixo, @remyroy and Trail of Bits for their efforts into bringing this project to completion!

someone with their ear to the ground more than me… Got airdropped a bunch of $DIVA tokens from Diva protocol about 18 months ago while running a rocketpool node. Tokens locked and still locked. Has anything come from this or is it now vapourware?

Lots of ways to be earning much more on your eth than the 2-3% a solo staking node earns Is there anything Ethereum/anyone is doing to raise the incentives to solo stake from home? The opportunity costs is $3-10k/year 😓

hello, i was trying to construct argument against Lido's community staking module, but i keep coming up short. It isnt as bad as i thought it to be. it is coordinating funds and infra between various users and as far as i can see does so in a neutral way. What would for you be a major difference between that and for example Obol?

❗ You have 100 ETH. ❓ Where would you stake it? 🎯 The objective is to have a high security, but at the same time, we also want to optimize rewards.

If you are a staker who generated multiple keys at a time using the popular staking-deposit-cli tool or one of its derivatives, you might be affected by a new security issue that was just discovered. See https://www.reddit.com/r/ethstaker/comments/1h0hn4j/insecure_keystore_files_generated_from_the/ for all details.

🚀 The Ethereum upgrade "Pectra" is set for early 2025! 🛠️ @mikeneuder.eth, Researcher at the @ethereum Foundation, highlights a key change: the max effective balance for validators will increase from 32 ETH to 2048 ETH. 👉 This will offer more flexibility for validators, while maintaining the minimum balance at 32 ETH.

Posting this again - I think it's important that we retain "solo staker" as the definition of a node operator who validates without anything between them and the Beacon Chain contract. It is the most "solo" way of staking In contrast, "independent operators" can look like a lot of different things (DVT stakers, Lido CSM validators, Rocket Pool minipool operators, solo stakers using data centers). This is a big pool of tapped and untapped node operators and they're essential for decentralization "Independent operators" isn't as catchy but I think it's good to have strict definitions to work from, otherwise we end up getting lost in 'decentralization word salads' where everybody means something different
