First, you will need to have enough testnet ETH to become a validator.
...
Replacing 2000 with whatever amount of ETH you want to deposit (min 1500).
Is this minimum just for the Testnet or ingrained into the final spec?
- acoye 9y agoI'm reading the paper looking for an answer. (as I'm hopping to be able to run a PoS node in the future) As I understand PoS, for security to be achieved, you need to be able to lose a non trivial amount of ether. I guess the 1K5 ETH is designed to stay roughly above 1 million USD of stake.
- dangero 9y agoThis is the question and is there a way to lease/pool your coins to a validator if you have less than that because if not that basically sets up supernode-like behavior like Dash where the rich get richer. 1500 coins is currently 1.1 million USD
