APR depends on total staked amount, and decreases as staked Eth increases. You can see the chart here: https://launchpad.ethereum.org https://launchpad.ethereum

APR depends on total staked amount, and decreases as staked Eth increases. You can see the chart here: https://launchpad.ethereum.org https://launchpad.ethereum.org Now that the launch has succeeded, I will stake some of my Eth. As more people do that, APR will fall.

So probably somewhere between 5~6%, maybe i should convert some of my Tezos to eth in the future.

  In the longer term, yes. Plus you can use eth2 in defi (e.g., for lending) to generate additional yield.

    No you can't. You can't do anything with Eth2 that is locked. Some pool staking services offer a token for each ETH staked, but you can not use the staked ETH.

      I was referring to longer term developments, in case this is unclear. Using staked ether in the defi ecosystem will be possible once withdrawal and smart contract functionality is enabled. Until then, there are liquid staking services that offer eth2 derivatives that can be used in defi, as you point out.

        You can always take out a loan against your stakes eth2

Edit: this complaint is null now! Poo, minimum 32 ETH or at current prices $19k. This reinforces my dislike of staking. Only making the already rich richer. Keeping lesser ETH holders out of the profit. But who am I kidding; if I magically had 32 ETH to stake I'd probably feel differently.

  In crypto there's this concept of delegation and also pooling. This allows folks with smaller holdings to be exposed to the benefits of staking.

    Can this be done non-custodially? i.e. can an ETH holder somehow delegate a pool to be able to stake with that ETH but not spend it?

      No or people could use that to bypass slashing.

        Oooh, gonna be some fun trust scams in PoS world :-D

      Yes, take a look at Rocket Pool: https://www.rocketpool.net/ https://www.rocketpool.net/ The trick is that as the pool leader, you have to put up a 16 ETH stake and other participants pool together to make up the other 16 ETH. If you misbehave as the pool leader, your 16 ETH is the first to get slashed. They published a blog post this week talking about how they are pushing back their roadmap until the Eth1/Eth2 merge, though. Their proof of concept was working great on testnets.
