Demand grows for ETH 2.Zero staking providers
Plenty of third-party staking options are rising as some potential stakers are keen to surrender a portion of their rewards in alternate for custody and administration providers. Others but don't have 32 ETH to stake.
"Some of the risks associated with running your own validator admit stealing or loss of withdrawal keys, inaccurate transfer of monetary system resourc to the [ETH 2.0] deposit contract, and let alone hardware or net connectivity failures which result in a loss of validator rewards," explicit Codefi Staking product lead, Tim Lowe.
"With ConsenSys Codefi, validator keys are held in a secure vault with online sign language capability, and there will be nine-fold layers of gatekeepers confirming minutes preventing unauthorized usage," he added.
