    I am excited to unveil @staking_xyz and begin our journey to make staking easy! The multi-asset staking experience has not seen any improvements for the past 4 years. I want to change that. Staking.xyz will be the only platform you need for all of your staking needs

    By today's market prices, Ethereum has $110b staked while Solana stands at $70b staked. Solana's economic security is getting really close to that of Ethereum. Isn't economic security one of the major reasons L2s choose Ethereum as its home?

    Some sad news. As of this week, I am no longer part of the @stakefish team. I decided it was time to move on to take on new challenges and start something from scratch (I will still be helping stakefish out as an outsider.)

    1 praise a day, Day 1 @tezos $XTZ is one of the first projects in a while where I'm confident the protocol will keep evolving even without the core foundation team. It has achieved decentralization at one of the toughest layers to actually decentralize.

    Interesting to note is that China has a balanced mix of projects using @cosmossdk and @Polkadot's Substrate. Korea has mostly projects using @cosmossdk and @Tendermint_Core (most notably, @terra_money). Japan has mostly projects building on @Polkadot's Substrate.

    This is an important bit of information for validators. More information is also available on their documentation: docs.eigenlayer.xyz/guides/native-… tl;dr, If you're a solo validator planning to be an EigenLayer validator, best to keep 0x00 withdraw credentials.

    The Shanghai/Capella upgrade brings validator withdrawals to Ethereum. Before changing withdrawal credentials or creating new validators, stakers interested in restaking on EigenLayer mainnet have a few considerations to make. Learn more in this post: blog.eigenlayer.xyz/the-shanghai-c… 1/4

    One of the things that @graphprotocol stands out on out of all the protocols we support: they onboarded outside teams (@streamingfastio @Figment_io) as core devs. I'd love to see other protocols move to do the same!

    I contributed a piece on what the real risks of staking are. Staking has been tagged high risk by regulators due to certain companies using the term "staking" to describe their services (spoiler: they were engaging in riskier yield farming or obscure lending practices).

    There's a world of difference between on-chain staking, which is transparent and relatively safe, and the centralized "staking" products offered by many now defunct crypto companies, @proofofjk writes. Opinion. #StakingWeek, presented by @FoundryServices trib.al/lsl4sjp

    Please stop calling crypto lending "staking." Confuses the heck out of everyone.
