Where are you in the chain of interest for the ETH2.0 launch?
secondary title
How do we participate in ETH2.0 staking (staking) to benefit?
ETH holders can participate in the pledge of Ethereum 2.0 and get rewards in the following two ways: pledge 32 ETH and run their own validator node; choose a third-party pledge service provider or join a pledge pool.
Running your own verifier node means that you need to pledge 32 ETH, and take on the responsibility of producing and verifying blocks. If you do not perform the verifier's duties, you may be punished by deducting the pledge.
If the user chooses a third-party pledge service provider, he can deposit any amount of ETH, and then obtain income according to the proportion.
There is a very important prerequisite for the release of 2.0. There must be enough ETH locked in it. What is the required number of ETH? 524,288 pieces. Only this 2.0 can be officially launched.

In the next period of time, you will definitely see this number continue to grow. As for how much it will eventually reach, no one knows.

When the entire network happens to have 520,000 ETH pledged, what is the annualized income of these miners? 21.6%! As of writing, the rate of return can reach as much as 18.2%.
For those who are optimistic about Ethereum for a long time, this is definitely a considerable annual income, because in addition to the increase in the number of ETH in your hands, the increase in the price of ETH has also declined at all.
According to the curve, when the entire network reaches 10 million ETH pledges, the annual rate can still be maintained at about 5%, which is still a return that can outperform bank deposits and various inflations. Of course, the premise is that you firmly believe that ETH will be a few years later. At least it can stay above the price you paid when you deposited.
Having said so much, some students may be anxious to ask: how to participate in the pledge? Don't worry, Bizai Xiao Z will tell you. As we mentioned above, you can pledge on a third-party platform, or pledge and maintain it yourself. If you want to save trouble, you can directly pay attention to the ETH2.0 pledge projects that will be launched on each platform at that time. play~

First of all, you have to have a computer like this (officially recommended configuration):
Operating system: 64-bit Linux, Mac OS X, Windows;
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770 or AMD FX-8310 (or better);
Memory: 8GB RAM;
Storage: 100GB available solid-state drive (SSD);
Internet: broadband network (10 Mbps);
Power: Uninterruptible Supply (UPS).
You have to know how to install and run ETH1.0 nodes, know how to install and run ETH2.0 nodes, master keys, mnemonics, compilers, etc., and you have to make sure your nodes are always online, because if you continue to There will be a deposit penalty for being offline.
Of course, the most important thing is that you have to have 32 ETH, hahaha~
After confirming that you meet the above conditions, you can open the official website of the ETH2.0 launchpad and follow the steps to become a validator.
Follow the process and you're good to go:
It needs to be reminded here that one of the benefits of being a verifier is that you can get ETH benefits, but there is also the risk of being "slashed", thereby losing the ETH pledge. But with a little effort, this risk can be avoided. There are two situations in which validators may be slashed:
Case 1: Offline or not performing validator duties correctly. The penalty in this case is less severe and basically equal to the reward you would have received. As long as you keep at least 50% of the time online to participate in the verification work, there will be no loss.
The second case: publishing conflicting blockchain information. In this case, validators are slashed and expelled from the system. The minimum confiscated amount is 1 ETH, and the maximum is the entire pledge amount, and the specific amount depends on the actual situation. If the verifier does not intend to do evil, the penalty of slashing is actually easy to avoid, and the probability of occurrence is relatively low.
OK, at this point, Xiao Z has roughly finished talking about the situation of Ethereum 2.0. If you have any questions, you can leave a message for Bizai Xiao Z. Let’s discuss together~
