Shoutout to epineph in the @rocketpool discord who tagged me b/c my node was down for a week (Beaconcha.in didn't tell me)! If you're running @ethnimbus, make sure your node is up! I just restarted my beacon node and there's a fix out now: https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/releases/tag/v26.2.0

For something as important as distributed fully owned staking it's great to hear the team is prioritizing security with the Saturn release 🪐🚀🔷 Likely now for early February https://x.com/Rocket_Pool/status/1996073600990752933

Amazing to be featured in @waq's Rocket Fuel episode yesterday, the show for Ethereum's most decentralized staking protocol! [25:50] 🟢🚀 Happy to help coordinate multi factor verification MFV of @safe and Rocket Pool contracts on Etherscan. Rocket Pool contracts now show a label on Etherscan to help verify and bookmark contracts you're working with are legitimate. Thanks to Kane, @langers, and @harithk17 for doing the harder work to verify the contracts. https://x.com/waqwaqattack/status/1965948453797933396 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yc6_T7pLS-U&t=1550s

Use decentralized ETH staking @rocket-pool with better security by being able to verify the contract labels you're interacting with on Etherscan 🔍🔶 Thank you to Kane Wallmann and @langers for working with @harithk17 and the Etherscan team to add the "Rocket Pool" label for rETH and the storage contracts! These labels can be used as part of the multi factor verification MFV process for important transactions.

I discovered Mellow Protocol on Lido 🔷🛰️ It'll be interesting to learn how the distributed validator rewards on @ssv-network + @obol are generated to get to the current 4% APR with Lido

Reminder: There's no such thing as safe CEX ⚠️ I tested out what the real ETH staking APR is on Gemini and my funds have been mysteriously on "hold" for a week after submitting the requested documentation. Another good example for self ownership of staking with @safe, Keycard, EthereumPhone /ethos, GridPlus, Hito, etc.

Interesting idea on Ethereum future proof of stake PoS upgrades - The name "proof of stake" PoS makes more sense than "proof of governance" PoG - Validators are creating and validating new blocks under the proposed model. It doesn't have to do with governance. - Paying validators the market rate for block building and validating without staking is interesting to simplify the network. However this new model doesn't have a way to penalize bad actors which brings us back to staking and slashing? It seems John Adler doesn't agree with his own rage bait "validators are cucks" because he admits they are essential to the network for block building and validating. https://x.com/therollupco/status/1948074899492278452

stVaults aren't just modular contracts—they're sovereignty infra. Institutions get compliance. Validators get customization. Stakers keep their liquidity. Making the complex effortless = Lido magic. https://x.com/LidoFinance/status/1945405852095037515

The 'Identified Community Stakers' framework is designed to help Lido autonomously identify home operators in the permissionless Community Staking Node Operator pool. Identification is important because the pool has lower minimum bond to start node operating and higher APR. Because of these awesome incentives it naturally attracts bigger Node Operators and professional setups. It's a bit like a bird feeder designed to deter squirrels. The ICS framework is built on: ∆ Proof of humanity ∆ Proof of experience ∆ Proof of Engagement Check out @dgusakov 's presentation below: https://www.youtube.com/live/dnuA71J2eq0?si=-pXuZs7CLdZ1lvC7&t=969

It's interesting to learn from the May @safe : @karpatkey Joint Treasury Community Update that 75% of the ETH treasury is staked using liquid staking tokens LSTs @lidofinance and @stakewise. https://forum.safe.global/t/safe-joint-treasury-community-update-may-2025-summary/6595

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
