LLMs are a huge boon for solo stakers. Troubleshooting is so much easier when you have an insanely experience sysadmin at your fingertips. Speaking from very recent personal experience resolving a cpu core temp and wifi antenna cable issues

Barely 48 hours after the flawless Pectra upgrade and the EIP–7251 MaxEB implementation, and already 1% of all the staked ETH sits in compounding validators (those that upgraded to a 0x02 address). Interestingly, those make up only 0.12% of all active validators, because ~100 of them are whales that have consolidated all of 2,048 ETH (the ceiling) per validator, skewing the average. And there are nearly twice as many consolidation requests still being processed in the queue (~2,500 pending vs. ~1,300 completed). This will take a load off the P2P layer as expected.

🚀 Pectra mainnet → May 7, 2025 Why stakers should care: • Stake up to 2,048 ETH/validator → auto-compounding (+~1.5% APR) • Self-service withdrawals (no operator needed) • Fast activations (~45 mins) • Consolidate 0x01 → 0x02 for streamlined ops • Optional: Consolidation boosts APR and slashes infra costs 0x01 validators still work! Want to optimize? 🧑‍💻 Join our live demo tomorrow, April 29, 2PM CET: https://www.kiln.fi/pectra-upgrade Everything you need to know 👉 https://www.kiln.fi/post/ethereum-pectra-upgrade---everything-you-need-to-know
