The @LidoFinance transition to permissionless liquid staking is a crucial step in upholding Ethereum's principle of credible neutrality.
What are the available options for stakers, which ones benefit the health of the network, and what’s the ideal staking mechanism? 🧵 1/17
In this thread, we focus on liquid staking options. Self-staking (run your own validator) and delegated-staking (let someone else run the validator) suffer from two drawbacks: steep entry price (32 ETH) & illiquidity of the staked funds. 2/17
Before we continue: what's liquid staking? Simply put, you give your ether to be staked. In return, you get tokens, which (1) are redeemable for ether, and (2) can be traded on the market. Ok, let's get into it. 3/17
