I'm looking forward to more Headlines focused on entrepreneurs' race, age, weight or other distinguishing physical characteristics. /s

That's not necessarily true. Some people mine with 100% solar power and their ongoing expenses are almost zero.

Indeed. In my experience the legal system is highly biased and corrupt.

If I have enough, I will run a validator. If not I will probably do some defi like lido + curve + yearn. I may also mine something else like flux or raven.

I agree with you of course, but those are not “ETH PoS” staking, strictly speaking. They are just layers on top. You definitely make more running your own validators.

Decentralization is about not needing anyone’s permission to participate and being free from censorship. You don’t need good credit or even ID to open an account and no one can sei…

I personally have been mining ETH for years with equipment I bought for $20k in 2017 - 2018. I’ve made many times my investment back. That same equipment is still running profitabl…

This has no impact on anything really at all. It’s just re branding, hopefully to clarify things. ETH does not change with ETH2. It’s just a series of upgrades to eliminate wastefu…

There are over 200,000 ETH PoS validators running already. I think that’s pretty decentralized.

There is no “ETH 1.0” token or “ETH 2.0” token. There is only ETH. They never “convert”. Anyone can fork the code at any time and keep mining. Many have. ETC and ELLA are a couple …
