The new meta for solo stakers = Your own mini staking pool. Anyone can get there with minimal ETH by following this roadmap:. 1) Practice for free on Google Cloud - guides in bio. 2) Apply for hardware grants to offset fixed costs - e.g. EF's Run-a-node grant + more to come. 3).

IMO the next wave of decentralisation of the ETH validator sets will realistically not come from an uprising of solo stakers en masse - but rather, from community builders running their own nodes and providing their members with another option to stake their ETH vs current

The golden age of solo stakers is here. I talked about the roadmap for solo stakers previously and this is Step 2 - Apply for hardware grants in action. The next step is to make use of this grant to start accumulating on-chain creds by running a DVT-enabled node with minimal.

DVT enables lower-bond validators but it doesn't address the fact that hardware is still too expensive to justify buying a computer to earn rewards on a 1 ETH DVT validator. EthStaker, with @divastaking and @stakesaurus is running a 10-week pilot program to subsidize hardware for

For solo stakers, checking for eligibility of airdrops by signing arbitrary messages with our withdrawal addresses is super scary cos that's where all our ETH goes. Not to mention the phishing army that floods our timelines. Fortunately, there's a way to minimise your exposure

Solo staking cannot replace your full-time job but it’s one of those skills that offers asymmetrical upside vs effort required. 1) it's relatively low effort once you learn how to set things up for a nice side income—e.g., 30 minutes a month maintenance without being highly.

Having a backup power supply is super underrated for your home validator. The crazy storm in SG's east side just tripped my power briefly & I would've had to spend 1 - 2 days re-syncing if my main node shut off abruptly. S$87 to prevent downtime and potential hardware failure!.

Shilling solo staking once again. IMO it’s one of the best ways to participate in Web3 economies in 2025. The general logic is simple—do more work, get more rewards. The other way to increase rewards is to take on more risk. Good to have both in your arsenal 🔫.

IMO this is a win-win-win for Lido, solo stakers, and DVT providers. Lido.Decentralisation will be the most valuable currency for the upcoming institutional demand for staked ETH–i.e., ETH ETF issuers. (Even though staking is restricted for ETF issuers under the current.

21 hours left to vote on the 4 active Lido DAO Snapshot votes!. I want to call attention to the proposal for Expanding the Simple DVT Module (SDVTM), something that I believe will continue the path of furthering the decentralization and resilience of the Lido Node Operator set.

Points farmers. Y'all gonna love this. How 5.5x more points?. Simply put, it's because there are way more ETH being put to work accumulating Obol points in the Lido Simple DVT Module than what's being staked in the Decentralised Validator Vault today 😎.

Currently, due to a larger number of active Obol validators within the Simple DVT Module, vault users are receiving a 5.5x boost to Obol points!. In addition, points from SSV and Mellow continue to flow, tied to their existing Incentivized Mainnet and launch campaigns.

This is your chance to make the economics of solo staking make even more sense guys. It’s not just hardware. It’s your gateway into the many opportunities available in the ETH validator space. Because you can run multiple staking setups on one hardware.

New tool in the box for solo stakers! . Previously we could only (easily) point the validator client to multiple consensus clients as fallbacks sequentially. Now we can link 1 VC : multiple CLs at the same time = better slashing protection + better node operator rewards.

Solo staking is a lonely journey. It's a key friction point because humans are social creatures at the end of the day. Having more teachers means we can form smaller but more engaged "study groups." Motivation and retention will be higher because it is simply more fun too!.
