My validator isn't validating for the last ~month and I didn't know and I only know now because I got notified I missed a block proposal 😒 I have alerts for if my validator is down but I guess I don't for if it's... having some issue where it's not down but not working right?

Me since Pectra, adding every ETH I can find to my compounding validator. I’m a MAXEB maximalist !

With compounding validators now officially online on Mainnet, there are some good pros into consolidating your validators if you have many of them or if you want to actively manage your execution rewards. See https://www.attestant.io/posts/exploring-validator-compounding/

New release for eth-wizard: https://github.com/stake-house/eth-wizard/releases/tag/v0.9.18. eth-wizard remains a great choice if you want a simple and easy staking installation on Windows or Ubuntu.

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.
